The whole cross-breeding thing was given a pretty good spin by David
Pistone, plus keep in mind that the StH universe isn't the only cartoon
universe we've seen where offspring are definitely one species or another.
So, yes, I believe the general consensus is that Sally's mother is a
ground squirrel (or whatever species Sally herself is).

What we really need is a detailed story of Robotnik's initial coup, answering
questions about Sonic's parents, Sally's mother, etc. Of course, you
couldn't really get away with slapstick in a story like this one, and
Archie may not be up to the task!

Well, there's a debate here as well. Personally, I'm on the "Mobius
is another world entirely" side, and in fact I like to think of Mobius
being in a whole other universe, one where magic exists and, on
planets like Mobius, is often used hand-in-hand with technology.

<sigh>, yet another Saturday without Sonic. Guess I'll go watch
"The Tick"...
