During the week of September 10, several T3H Metroid Galaxy shorts were released to tide fans over until the continuation of the series on September 17 (although the release date was not announced yet when the shorts started appearing). The word "short" is used to describe the fact that the issues are non-canon and separate from the normal series timeline, the issues themselves are no shorter than a regular issue. These issues introduce the new TMG logo, and each short ends by reminding readers that the series will continue in September.
