The comic was later serialized in Japan through ''{{wp|CoroCoro Comic}}'' in 1993. The comic was written by {{wp|Kentaro Takekuma}} and illustrated by {{wp|Tamakichi Sakura|Charlie Nozawa}}. While the comic tells a largely unique story, it is loosely based on ''[[Super Mario World]]'', featuring many of the same [[List of enemies|enemies]] and [[List of characters|characters]].

 *Luigi's fear of ghosts (most prominently shown beginning with ''[[Luigi's Mansion]]'').
 *Bowser showing a humorous side as well as his romantic interest in Peach (albeit preceded by the anime film ''[[Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyūshutsu Dai Sakusen!]]'', and first seen in the games starting with ''[[Paper Mario]]'') and having a [[Magikoopa]] advisor ([[Kamek]] has since filled this role).
-*Princess Toadstool's wedding dress design in the comic would provide the template for Peach's sundress in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'' (albeit without sleeves) and her modern dress, which was introduced in ''[[Mario Party 4]]''. Her wedding dress in the comic also bears a heavy resemblance to [[Media:SMO Art - Wedding Peach.png|her wedding dress]] in [[Super Mario Odyssey]] and may have inspired it.
+*Peach's willingness to fight in order to save Mario (which she does in ''[[Super Princess Peach]]'') and attempting to escape captivity (later seen in some of the [[Paper Mario (series)|''Paper Mario'' games]], ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]'', and ''[[Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam]]'').

 *The idea that Yoshi can say only his name (introduced in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''), though later games show that while he verbally speaks his name, other characters can still understand what he is saying.

 *''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' and [[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions|its remake]] would both have a scenario where Luigi would have to take Peach's place, having to wear her dress and a wig, so as to retrieve the stolen [[Beanstar]]. However, in this instance, rather than wearing a mask, he simply covers his mustache with his hands, which ultimately gives him away.
 *Toad's fate is never revealed after he is captured, as he is not seen after that scene, nor is the fate of the other Toads after they are seen in the desert.
+*This is the first piece of ''Super Mario'' media that depicts Bowser as having a musical side. This character trait was used again over 20 years later in ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]'', where Bowser sings "[[Peaches]]."
