- im locked in a room with robo and she wont stop describing the sonic comics to me. why are there so many echidnas? what's a sega genesis wave? why is tail's uncle literally just the actual wizard merlin? please help me
You know, people talk shit about the sonic OCs but they’re probably more original than the official characters if Zonic the Hedgehog is any indication.
I'd take Mary-Sue the Hadgehorg over Ken Pender's monstrosities any day.
In my honest opinion the Zone cop characters were pretty cool all of them had a take no shit attitude
Crow The Guy *Coldsteel the Hedgehog*
No all the zone characters are like that. Replace or add z as 1st letter in name. Examples: Zhadow, Zecter, Zvo Kintobor (Z'egg-man), Zouge, etc. But aside from the rest of the sonic multiverse gets pretty crazy.
zonic is sonic but blue
I love how Anti-Knuckles is literally just Knuckles but french.
The Blank King Boy does Sega hate the French.
I think it's less that they hate the French, and more that they think the opposite of being aggressive.... Is being *French.*
But for some reason I thought he was Irish and have a voice similar to Samuel motherfucker Jackson.
The Blank King They probably just don’t know how french people can be aggresive I guess 😂
Yes. This is knuckles in his full glory.
>A lot of characters died in them.
"I like that."
Dude, what
Edgy
Reddline_ Too many cooks will spoil the broth
Sonic fanbase in a nutshell
Dude, I thought they were cool, too.
He really did not like those characters
I'm more concerned about the fact that Robo knows almost every character and arc.
masterlasheron thats exactly what i was thinking
masterlasheron oh crap you're right
Da gracias a dios que Ken Penders se los llevo para hacer su propio fanfiction
Ohh mama
Wait a minute I know you, you're that guy who screams and laughs maniacally at things that you don't like.

The Virgin Sonic vs The Chad Scourge
TriFox I’ll take the virgin please.
still exists got deleted from existance out of spite
this comment is freaking hilarious thank you
The Virgin Scourge vs The Chad Sonichu
The virgin scourge vs the chad shadow.
I thought Scourges design looked cool. I kind of like the idea of an evil twin who ends up trying to find his own identity.
Pelcogo If you like games about identity go play Tales of the Abyss. 40/10 game
Scourge was hilarious to watch. 'goofing around' was short for switching places with the real sonic, and flirting with every girl including bunny who had a boyfriend. He ended up convincing Fiona Fox to play both Sonic and Tails, breaking both of their hearts and their relationship with each other apart. Scourge and Fiona never break up and Fiona even helped Scourge find his confidence after being pummeled in jail. She even built an entire team for him. Scourge's girlfriend track record is cleaner than Sonic's! XD
Sparky Longtail
Buuut Patch was even more epic at this point
I LOVE SCOURGE AND HIS ARC
AND I SHIP HIM AND FIONA
GO ON LAUGH ALL YOU WANT THEY WERE CUTE TOGETHER
True
Ivo kintobor is originally from the fleetway comics, Sega owns him and can use him if they like
Good.
But probably not that disturbing skinny Kintobor... Which I think might be what Jim Carrey Will look like XD
gotta read the fleetway comics
i have... reasons
Holy shit really?
I want a new sonic game where the protagonist is Kintobor
I wanna see him sometime in the future
Is it sad that I don't even read the comics, yet I knew almost all these characters?
Also I had no idea Danica Patrick was canon in the comics.
Not anymore, Super Genesis Wave. Danica Patrick no longer exists rip
*cries in nascar*
Only character I likes was Scoruge, until I read his backstory
No joke I clicked this video on my feed thinking it was one of yours.
Courtney ur here ! I love your videos
does anti-knuckles chuckle rather than flexing his muscles?
but knuckles chuckles too
8000 cats *YOU’RE LYING!*
And does he say "no oh" instead of "oh no"...? Asking the real questions
@@cats-hv2lm I can't believe this, knuckles would never do something like that, I am literally shaking and crying right now
knuckles: **chuckles in your direction**
I read this shit too religiously growing up, thank you for making me not feel alone Robo
So how much shit do you still get for The ghost of Christmas past?
OH SHIT ASSBURGER
Aye it's ass
*ghost joke*
I was the stereotypical autistic nerd and the sonic archie comics were my bible. I was a very lonely child
I imagine it's like Kingdom Hearts: It might seem insane, but gosh darn is the delivery so sincere and genuine that you get sucked in by the characters.
I mean, I liked the insanity. I gave up on them after they murdered a lot of the canon, I miss the stuff that was inspired by generic fantasy shit. I thought it was way more appealing than any other aspect of the entire continuity. :(
i think IDW's run is pretty solid so far. i've read every issue and they give us great stuff and they do really seem to love and care for this stuff hell they give some "deep cut" cameos like g-emerl from the handheld games.
I tried the newer comics, they...were too silly for me, I guess they're fine for people who like sonic's "default genre" (crazy japanese cyberpunk) but I'm not really a fan of that myself and I feel like too much of the mythologized aspect to the world is just gone now and it's tilted too far into sci-fi for me to like. TBF, I always hated that about the main games too, and the comics were initially how I came to care about sonic at all because its original genre wasn't doing it for me.
I guess the upside for a lot of the 'true' fans is they get to purge the nonbelievers now XD
well right now the series is in its infancy so who knows were it could go.
yeah true, the original comics started out utterly garbage with stupid references, bad jokes, and one-off plots that went nowhere, and they turned into something amazing so I guess it's possible for these to pick up.
damn I can't be the only person who thinks whisper looks stupid though, she's even got the fucking weeaboo mask on the side of her face. -_-;
To be fair to characters that were egg graped were asking for it.
*They were wearing purple.*
Titans JoJo bruh

I’m not gonna lie, I was kinda sad to see Scourge go. This video was entertaining.
Black Chinchilla Honestly, it especially sucks with Scourge since in the very last issue he was in, he had this undefined big plan for his world and Sonic’s.
Scourge was awesome.
Black Chinchilla Honestly favourite archie character
@shadonic565 He's gone...forever.
shadonic565 Ken legally owns him now they can’t....
5:12 bojack swordsman
Haha! Nice one.
Believe it or not, the comics are what actually made me a fan of Sonic. I get how weird they come off as to someone who hasn't read them, but I didn't mind most of the goofy ideas and characters, Sonic just inherently is a goofy concept, and the comics embraced that and did some interesting things story and character wise (though I do feel the Penders era was more dumb than interesting). I'm a big X-men guy, so having a big cast of characters doesn't bother me, and the writing on the series, especially when Ian Flynn took over, actually got me invested in the stories and characters in a way that the games didn't. I've actually done a few videos on my channel about them if you'd like to see more of what I'm talking about.
Comic Fan Nicolas Don’t worry I get it. All comics from any franchise get goofy after a while.
Comics are weird in general, especially when talking about silverage DC Comics.
Yup same
Yeah the stories were entertaining all jokes aside even if they had flaws and continuity issues. Too bad we didnt get any closure.
Man, I really need to get back into rereading the series. I originally got into near the start of Flynn's run (right where that horse character died, actually), so I never really appreciated how weird the cast and story were previously. Really, hats off to Flynn for taking the mess and somehow making it work. Regardless of how terrible the history was, I'm still sad that it all got retconned in the end.
Btw you mentioning the Super Genesis Wave and bringing up the list of deleted characters made me think of Ken Penders as Thanos and that made me laugh way more than I should've, so thanks for that!
actually Sega'd be Thanos since they're the real culprits behind this mess
1:00 the fact the mighty is the one that makes you go "WTF Is that" is amazing. Almost every sonic character with one giant eye that has two separately moving irises should make you have that response.
2:26 a punk, lesbian knuckles is something I never knew I needed, until now
I don’t know what a sonic hedgehog comic is,
But something about Ray the Flying squirrel exudes good boy energy
How dare he dis Mighty and Ray
Gameon Pie After they got brought back for Mania.
how do you not know mighty the armadillo when HE WAS JUST IN SONIC MANIA PLUS
The fact that Ken Penders achieved the legal rights to all those characters and then Archie came along and made it impossible for him to use any of those characters is the funniest thing and such a power move on Archie’s end
Archie lost the Sonic license. So the joke was on Archie in the end.
@@kenpenderstheechidnalover8820 is that day real person?
After hearing "Sonic's robot dad" I need to read the comics
oh geez jules
I recognize most of these characters (and I can't decide if I'm feeling the warm fuzzies of nostalgia or vicarious embarrassment having read this series for well over a decade) and I actually like the storylines involving Jules, but whoever drew that particular image (I'm guessing Tracy Yardley) just *mangled* poor Robot Dad's design, he's unrecognizable.
Chaos Shadow That wasn't Tracy.
The ever controversial Jon Gray is responsible. Some people love his art.
One of the characters on the removal list was "Kicks A lot" and he has a partner named "Sleuth Dawg" who was also removed.
Yep this shit deserved to be purged.
Nemesis I remember Sleuth. Don't remember the other guy tho.
She speaks the truth
...
And the "Scourge" character is inspired by a graphical glitch in _Sonic 2_ .
And now there's Surge from IDW, who was based on the same glitch. I like to imagine that their names rhyming was intentional, but I heavily doubt it.
I forgot how crazy the sonic comics were. Wasn't there technically two eggmans before the super genesis wave?
Yes we had 2 Robotniks.
The first got so angry over losing all the time he created a erase everyone doomsday device and almost killed Sally Acorn by proxy. See the End Game arc where only he got erased due to his nephew arranged sabotage.
Robotnik Mk2 the current version, once tried to invade the prime Archie Sonic Universe but got beaten back by a Sonic and Robotnik team up. Later MK2 would come back and take over the original empire and even briefly bring back the original for a one off failed scheme to good cop bad cop the freedom fighters. The original Robotnik's fate was to be lost to the place his doomsday weapon sent people thanks to Sally reprogramming MK2's device.
Really? What the heck
Scourge the Hedgehog A.K.A Green Sonic A.K.A Evil Sonic A.K.A Mr. Steal Yo Girl
I never knew there were SOO MUCH
I promise you, there's WAY more than what you see here.
Cody Danny now I want to see more
CaityChan It's an interesting seiries!
Cody Danny I’ll try to look on the internet so I can see the awesomeness of each of everything
i watched this before i got into sonic and was just as bewildered but now im just like "tails' ex? yeah. twink eggman? yep. green sonic? i know him."
Oh god, the super genesis wave really erased Danica Patrick from the Sonicverse, I'm in tears
Does this imply Ken Penders owns Danica?
@@Brucifer2 She just didn't want to be in the Sonicverse anymore. Why do you blame me?
I can't believe we lost Scourge. Had no idea Ken Penders fucked things up so badly.

I hope some of these characters come back for the IDW run
Brandon Gray well maybe not the characters themselves but characters like them cause i actually liked some of the characters in this video & want to see them come back in some form
At least some of the core ones like rotor walrus and sally acorn at the VERY least.
Yeah that's kinda sad really. Characters like the original few freedom fighters have been in so much sonic media and have been around for so long that it kind of sucks that they'll probably never come back, especially with how they were in the satAM cartoon, referenced in sonic spinball, and are so well known.
George Baynard They pretty much just make a spin-off version of the major characters that were cut. Like there is literally a Sparrow version of Rob o' the Hedge that is exactly the same.
Yeah but I really want Sally, Rotor, Bunnie, and twan back in the IDW comics
I legit thought it was gonna say “And unlike Knuckles, he chuckles”
The British version introduced an equally odd assortment of characters, if not moreso.
@@sarahjordan4845
Eeyup.
@@sarahjordan4845 There's some archives you can download, worth reading, they're a lot of fun with some excellent art
BTW, the "Genesis Wave" was a memory-erasing wave that Eggman produced that sent everyone back to when they first met.
"Moebius," as well as various other Sonic dimensions, were created by the godlike Feist the Panda after he combined the millions of tiny emeralds into 7 big ones IIRC?
I didn’t have internet or cable as a kid and the sonic comics and original games were my lifeblood. Looking back...this is a little wonky. Wow. These existed. It’s like my memory pushed them far back so I’d forget. Like a trauma.
5:12 this dude looks like one of those muscle bound fursonas. Have fun in Rule 34 🤣
If you see a real background in any of old Sonic Comics. Ken Penders did that. He still does that and will justify it.
did you remember to google your names followed by, the hedgehog, and the echdnia?
SCROUGE WAS IN THAT LIST NOOOOOOO
SALLY'S BROTHER IS TOO NOOOOOO
This definitely brought back bad memories, as I used to read these and think they were good. To be fair, when Ken left and Ian Flyn started writing the comics got incredibly better compared to the shit show Ken Penders was writing. Still, it was fun to see these abominations again 😊
Ian Flynn is a clown joke. You people blame me for Sally, Bunnie, Antoine, Rotor, Nicole and Snively for not being in the IDW comics. That was all Ian Flynn's doing.
*Genesis Wave=Thanos Snap*
Makes me wanna get into the comics.
Too late there buddy. Sonic already went to another publisher.
Rin where should I start then ?
Brandon Gray got it
If you are curious about the Archie comics, start reading where Ian Flynn took over (which was around #160)
@Brandon Gray The IDW comics are an absolute joke. I knew I was gonna get blamed for Sally, Bunnie, Antoine, Rotor, Nicole and Snively not being in the IDW comics. That's all Ian Flynn's fault the SatAM Freedom Fighters and Snively aren't in the IDW comics. Mighty, Ray, Bean, Bark and Nack are only in the classic series. Ian Flynn is and always will be a disgrace to Sonic.
Unfortunetly in the purge we lost a true hero, Doctor Ivan Kintobor will be missed
I’m just hearing Snapcube Sonic Riders Real Time fandub Wave talking! I love it! I’m just imagining her doing the daring deed of looking into her franchise’s comic lore!
9:01 that moment of realization made me lose it
I lowkey miss scourge and the suppression squad though
Tbh suppression squad is the DUMBEST villain group name I've ever heard.
@Chillin' I know. But they could have at least thought of a better name. They could have called themselves "the oppressors" or something
Evil man
@@goldprime118 I love it because it's standard alternate universe comic book bullshit like the Crime Syndicate
@@seanmiller4170 true. But does everything have to be the anti version of something else?
5:29 hail to the king, baby!
Edit: Why the hell did someone like this? Was it so funny they had to leave something to remember it?
Oh god, I love your personality and voice, Robobuddies.
I remember one time I visited my sick friend who owned a lot of the sonic comics and while he was sleeping I sat and read through almost all of them in one sitting, good times.
Ah the Sonic comics. What a trip down the awkward memory lane.
But on a technical note, I was wondering about some of the effects you used in this video. I'm guessing that the transition was a manually tweaked transition put on an adjustment layer and used for all the character transitions? But that's a shot in the dark, really. But for your usual purple cyber-hud BG did you composite that all in After Effects or is it a tweaked template? It all looks clean.
But yeah, cool shit. Fun seeing the erratically of the Sonic cannon eat away at a man's soul.
The transition was a template I got online, and the BG is a Free Background Loop that I just made purple
Let's be fair, none of this is any more ridiculous than Sonic 06.
seeing this in 2022, you realize when she says they are official sonic characters but then you remember ken penders copyright and you think she's lying.
10:43 The whole gang's here! From left to right, we have:
Science Knuckles, Eyebrow knuckles, Star Trek Knuckles, Majin Knuckles, College Professor Knuckles, The Super Knuckle Bros. Super Enchilada, Blind Knuckles, Indiana Knuckles, Green Clothes Knuckles, Cyborg Knuckles, Gay Purple Knuckles, Metal Plate knuckles, Girl Knuckles, Hippie Knuckles, One-eyed Knuckles, Bearded Knuckles, and Red Sonic!
My friends whenever I explain Sonic comic lore to them
He would flip his sh*t if he was told that technically Ray and Mighty were characters before Tails.
I'm so glad the comics aren'tcanon to the games.. 😅
5:19 Do I even have to say more..?
Zonate 606 the comics had a better story than any of the games combined so there's that
13:00 WHAT? I wouldn't call myself a furry, and Sally is of course best girl, but MY GOD Fiona in that jumpsuit? I'm gonna miss that.
I swear I was half expecting Sonichu to appear.
This kinda explains why sonic was such a deviantart OC donut steele thing in the first place
Is it sad that I'm upset that Scouge,Miles,and Fiona are never coming back?
cause i don't think so
Never in my life have I ever heard someone describe Fiona as a high school girl
My favorite part about this video is that I knew every single character's name.
Shadow.
I don't even need to mention the page of the comic because you know that face...
I'm so mad that scourge isn't coming back. He was an AMAZING VILLAIN, his whole squad was awesome and his plan for both moebius and mobius was never allowed to be completed. It's sad
What was his plan
@@robertcooper4th259 idfk, that's the point. He gets broken out of jail by his squad, says that he has big plans in store for both mobius and moebius and then everything just gets reset. It's sad man.
@@SANICRAWY2J how did the series end
@@robertcooper4th259 the original series ended with the Sega genesis wave. Eggman created a machine that accidentally reset the whole timeline. And scourge along with a lot of other characters got deleted.
@@SANICRAWY2J what about the second series
I only knew Scurge. Apparently he was meant to be in Sonic 06 before Creepy Comic dude sued Sega.
I memorised 90% of the characters from this video. Best thing I've ever done.
It's fucking great that your doing more Sonic content robo, pls continue!
Scourge was a fucking g though. Sucks to see that he got caught in Penders’ nuke.
Shit, The sonic lore go's deeper then I though.
I really liked all of the Archie comic before the first reboot, yes even the Ken Penders stuff, and Shard was before that first reboot.
I didn’t know that 98 percent of these characters existed. I wish I still didn’t (except doctor kintobor, he’s my new favourite).
Prince Charmy
Prince Charming.
I'll leave
No matter what fan characters people make, there will always be a weirder character that already exists.
My x-boyfriend is a Sonic comics fanatic. I wish I could send this to him. He'd love it. Eh, whatever.
SpellboundWolf
What’s his first or last name? I might know him.
Did you know Sonic is not Sonic's actual name? I mean, on the one hand nobody would look at his newly born baby and name him after the speed of sound, but on the other hand you just don't expect him to have a real name...
But Sonic does have one! And it's Ogelvie Maurice the Hadgehog. Now what is more ridiculous? The fact his first name is Ogelvie, the fact that his second name is Maurice, or the fact that a character designed around the concept of "cool" has a second name?!?
*Ogelvie Maurice Hedgehog.* Yeah you can see why he goes by "Sonic."
That's why you should always name your kid Sonic just to be sure
Thank you, I guess, for informing me of Sir Connery, the muscular bipedal horse.
2:46 that's a fair one, because it's at least based on a famous folktale ( notably the monkey kid)
5:12
That moment you realize that the Sonic Comics were the strangest case of an official fan-fiction.
WAIT ONE OF THE CHARACTERS ON THE KEN PENDERS LIST WAS "MARI-SU." ARE YOU KIDDIG ME?
Imagine a badnik put a bag over your head and said "take him to the egg grape chambers."
I am now genuinely interested in wtf these comics are like. Also dam that is some serious negativity.
I love how he doesnt believe the forgotten characters from the old games and how his reaction to sonic online is perfect
I refuse to accept that the archie comics are legitimate sonic media. It's just a fan fiction fever dream and isn't legitimate. Nothing you say will convince me that it's actual official sonic content.
Why would you have a crush in someone that looks like your UNCLE
Cousin.
@@koolmckool7039 that's even worse!
I straight up never read the Sonic comics yet I know every character from the comics, I am that big of a Sonic fan
The silence when he just so confused is a mood
I can't make out what he says at 8:22. What's the joke?
Godminnette2 he’s so thin
He's so thin
That one picture of Lara-Su is literally the most appealing picture of her I've actually seen, she's so fucking awful looking everywhere else because she's red but her hair is bright fucking pink and it looks awful

11:17 Yo, does this mean scourge is gone Forever?
It seems so.
Press F to pay respects to best hedgehog.

Wait Bunnie Rabbot can't come back!?
The main Freedom Fighters (Sally, Bunny, Antoine, Rotor) were not original comic characters and originated from the SatAM cartoon, so they're still there.
*Bunnie
The Super Genesis Wave was perfectly balanced, as all things should be
I just love his ever-increasing confusion with each character. That is a fucking mood, especially when it comes to any character made by Penders.
As someone who's read the old Archie run for a good 10 years. This bought the biggest smile on my face for remembering how stupid the characters were.
I was wheezing throughout the whole video, holy freaking heck.
