"'''Piranha-Round Sue'''" is an issue of the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' comic series published by the ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]''. The title is a pun on the song "{{wp|Runaround Sue}}".

==Synopsis==
[[File:Piranharoundsue 01.jpg|thumb|left|First page.]]
The story begins with [[Mario]] and [[Toad]] rushing into [[Mushroom King|King Toadstool]]'s chambers, claiming the [[Piranha Plant]]s are revolting.  Mario does not realize that the King has been turned into a chameleon and he needs a magic wand to turn him back into his normal self. The King gives Mario and Toad the [[Green Gecko Gem]], a powerful gem that casts a force field around whoever holds it. As Mario and Toad travel to the Piranha Plant headquarters to get the wand, Toad whispers an idea to Mario.

Mario bounces through the land using the Green Gecko Gem's protective shield, while Toad falls behind. [[Piranha Sue]], an evil Piranha Plant, pops out of a [[Warp Pipe|Pipe]] and manipulates Toad by telling him he could be the king of the world with the Green Gecko Gem.  Mario finds the magic wand and sees Toad about to fall off a waterfall. Toad tells Mario to drop the gem and grab him (though he is secretly being held by Piranha Sue's vines).  He eventually disappears under the water, and Mario rushes in to grab him, dropping both the wand and the gem.  Piranha Sue quickly snatches the items and powers herself up, exclaiming that she rules the world.

[[Bowser|King Koopa]] suddenly appears and chokes Sue, who tries to tell him that she gathered the gem and wand for him.  Bowser tosses the gem away, deeming it a cheap trinket, and reads the inscription on the wand: "Brooklyn Plumbing Novelty Company"; Piranha Sue was tricked, and ends up presumably getting punished. Meanwhile, Toad and Mario return to King Toadstool and turn him back to normal (or as [[Wooster]] says, "Only technically").
