I find it a little to funny that we go from Archie's version of Robotnik being the typical kids show bad guy. To Robo-Robotnik/Eggman whos just like, "Yes, I'm gonna use the Roboticizer to Nuke every technologically advanced civilization on the planet instantaneously. What ya gonna do about it?". Like, DAMN, Eggman would make PALPATINE look good.
I mean, Palpatine allowed the destruction of Alderaan, an entire planet, in Episode IV, without a care in the world. That's not just the sentient civilizations, it's all life and nowhere for it to sprout again. And in the sequels (as much as I hate to mention them), he orchestrated behind the shadows in Episode VII the destruction of several planets from a distance.
@@lxik2677 Yeah, but the difference is the Eggman, was gonna do it out of pure spite and hatred. Where as Alderaan could be more-so pinned on Tarkin, and it's dubious at best just how much Palps actually influenced during the Sequel era. But that's not to say that Palpatine didn't do some horrible stuff, just that the examples given aren't ENTIRELY within his control. While the threat Eggman made, was VERY MUCH 100% within his control. If not for Sally, to quote Eggman from Forces here, "BOOM!! The end!!".
IDW Eggman: Close to the games, surprisingly somewhat respectable. Archie Eggman: *Would be immediatly be tried and executed for war crimes if anyone other than Sonic captures him*
@@mray4784 The Metal Virus was actually a leftover from the Archie comics before they got cancelled so that explains a lot. Game Eggman never struck me as the kind of guy who would just single-handedly create a zombie outbreak, seems out of character and too evil even for him.
@@Rediscool9 Too evil? He blow up part of the moon in Adventure 2 and conquered the entire world in Forces. He literally destroyed the planet to liberate an ancient evil god.
@@mray4784 Yeah, but none of those strike me as a guy who would single-handedly create a zombie outbreak. Like I said, the whole Metal Virus saga was meant to be for Archie at first before the comic’s cancellation meaning that it was originally an Archie Eggman plan which makes way more sense.
@@Rediscool9 He tortured Sonic for 6 months in lost world and, _immediately_ after discovering the Lost Hex, brainwashed the Deadly Six - and effectively tortured them if they started to question or stray from his orders. Is the Metal Virus _really_ too far?
There is one more thing that defines this Eggman as the worst. He programmed his robots to be afraid. Espio asked what's the point of that move? The answer was simple - Eggman just enjoys when his minions fear him, even if that's not productive.
@@Coffeeplease69420Magneto, General Shepherd(Call Of Duty), Darth Vader, General Zod, and Carnage would have the same objective as Game Eggman, take down Archie Egg man
I only read like at most 10 sonoce archie comics and even then this version of Eggman is mf Satan I swear! He was gonna kill his entire Dark egg legion with the Death Egg. I've never seen Sonic so horrified when he heard that.
@Coffeeplease69420 but from what Yan Flinn said, the Idw comics are part of the gaming universe and he is seen as Near pure evil according to what I saw
Omg yes! Ive been saying for YEARS that Archie Eggman is the most evil character in the entirety of Sonic history and easily the most menancing version of the character, bar none. Him killing everyone on his mobius (essentially finally winning) and then traveling to the prime zone just out of sheer boredom cemented that for me😂
The moment where he gunned down Sally with a fricking *Minigun* had left me speechless the first time I read it honestly. Yeah the dude is evil, heck he killed his entire world and came back for seconds, but I was Not expecting that in a Sonic comic, especially with how it was treated.
Ironically, the Super Genesis Wave wiped out the majority of Robotnik/Robo-Robotnik's cred. His takeover of the world with most of his minions trying to keep hold after his death and folding into Robo-Robotnik's army? Gone. All the deaths he caused in the Egg Grapes? Gone. *_The majority of his actions post issue 200, Knothole being destroyed, Dark Egg Legion, blowing up Antoine and leaving him in a coma, Mecha Sally, abd nuking his old home and coming to the Prime universe all because he got bored with victory over his Sonic and wanted to fill the power vacuum?_* It's all lost to the void. New 252 Eggman has an empire, but it's far lesser than Robo-Robotnik Eggman's, and nowhere near the grip he had on the world... Archie Eggman was truly something that could not be replicated...
@@samuelrodriguez9801 Since it also aims to be closer to the games (and more importantly takes place _post-Forces),_ yeah, for the most part it is significantly lesser. Spoilers ahead for current arc: The Eggperial City was almost a decent comeback, but then Eggman pushed Sonic too far, and he personally had the city blown up, and ultimately left Eggman in a Villainous BSOD that left him completely sterile when it came to any new plans while in hiding until Clutch ticked him off with his Clean Sweep commercial and he decided to get involved in the Phantom Rider arc.
the genesis wave was the worst and most epic thing that happened ins onci canon after hyper sonic. that shit literally erased infinite universes in its multiverse, the muktiples universes (zones) were gone, scourge? gone? good metal sonic? gone! I literally cannot cruse more at ken penders for destroying such good things FUCK YOU PENDERS and now, with idw we basically have to accept that sally, freddom fighters and a lot of secondary characters as old as the franchise itself are not coming bakc, they are erased since they dont exist in the games (that the idw continuity is located)
Honestly to Eggman, losing a lot of the work he did was probably worth it if it meant he could commit multiversal genocide. He's that much of a hater, this man does not care what he loses so long as he can just ruin Sonic's life in some way.
My favourite thing was how in the Mega Man crossover, Wily and Eggman were actually hitting it off as great friends. But when Eggman tried to kill Dr. Light, Wily was horrified and decided to betray Eggman.
I remember that! And the entire time Wily was betraying Eggman, so was Eggman betraying Wily! They had to rewire their joint battle-mech mid-battle with each others guidance once Sonic and Megaman got their super forms! Wily had even put up dummy circuit boards like he did with his decoys in the games!!
Both are just that cartoon gags, where a scroll of their crimes just opens and roles out of the house, and rolls across the globe, back into the house.
I said it before, but Archie Eggman actually won in the previous timeline. With the roboticization of Sally, it was the beginning of the end. He was able to destroy the world to the point that it couldn't recover that even hundreds of years into the future, everything is still devastated. Silver going back in time to fix that was the only way to undo that future.

It would probably be something like saying I have created a new slur. This slur would be towards only hedgehogs so he could insult Sonic with even more vile words.
Can Eggman even be successfully executed? I'm pretty sure that he would pull a Joker and poison Sonic with mind altering nanite from inside his corpse.
I get that of course they aren’t going to kill off Eggman a second time since you know Sega needed to sell more comics and I know he’s basically exactly like his game counterpart post reboot but pre reboot? In universe How did nobody decide or attempt to execute Eggman? Cause pre reboot Eggman was beyond just a menace like I get it’s not in Sonic’s (well actually Archie Sonic had killed a few people from what I heard) but considering he teams up with Wily twice and causes the Genesis Wave which permanently erases not only a good majority of the cast’s family members (well some of them still remain post reboot but they are no longer related by blood) but also screwed over a lot of people Like when they had him in a straight jacket they should have executed him. Like sparing him led to Multiversal genocide and Im sure Sonic and the Freedom Fighters would be blamed if say a random character who not only survived a character but remembered the old world found out. Actually that could be an interesting story have a character who existed during the Pre genesis wave continuity remember the pre reboot world and realize that their changed life and erased loved ones are technically Sonic and the Freedom Fighters fault. If a story liked that happened I wonder how Sonic and other characters would try to defend themselves? Like is that situation even defendable?
Unfortunately the Genesis Wave was actually indirectly caused by Ken Penders... Eggman is not liable for the crime because it was a result of the former author disputing the comic's ownership.
Maybe they were afraid he had some plan to destroy everything if he's dead like the previous one? Also maybe they thought he could be needed to deal with bigger threats, there were still 2 powerful alien species fighting each other nearby and a lot of other stuff after all.
Wow, Archie Eggman is far worse than Homelander. I'm surprised that no one decides to end him for good, I know he's important because he's the main villain in the sonic franchise but he has gone too far. He's a completely different character to the point that he's not even Eggman but a devil wedding the skin of him.
One of the things skipped here is the SatAM version's fate when he is temporarily brought back. The Freedom Fighters reprogram MKII Eggman's device to destabilize and send back into not existing again the SatAM version. One certainly had payback gotten on him as one last plan blows up in his face for defeat before getting erased. The Super Genesis Wave finishing off the Legacy of the Doctors being the final insult on their street cred.
well it was considered, but sonic couldn't bring himself to do it personnaly, and at the time knothole was run by an infighting bearuacracy that couldn't agree and made the insane decision to make Ixis Naugus, a literal evil wizard, king, so yeah they aren't great at deciding things. for the most part most of the cast are good people who don't want to do anything remotely similar to Eggman and so cannot bring themselves to outright murder if they can avoid it. and also when they captured him and defeated him seemingly for good, he was rendered harmless by his insanity so noone could quite bring up the nerve to hurt him because he wasn't even MALICIOUS anymore. then he reasoned himself sane and escaped.
@@StevenJones851 yeah. In the comics, there was a cross-over between Mega Man’s universe and Sonic’s. It was called When World Collied. And it’s fallow-up was When Worlds Unite. In the comics Robotnic (Eggman) met Dr. Wily and the two tried to become Gods and did several nefarious acts like turning all of Sonic’s friends into The Robotized Masters and pitting Mega Man and Sonic against one another. It was wild.
*Archie Sonic writer #1:* “Hey so we have this goofy egg shaped mad scientist that has some genuine redeeming qualities and is willing to team up with his enemies to fight a greater evil from the games that we need to adapt to these comics, what should we do?” Archie Sonic writer #2:* “Make him a literal pure evil devil.”
I don't think he'd exactly shown any of those redeemable qualities. Archie Sonic started in like 1992. Before Sonic 3 even came out. Although the early Archie Sonic comics had more of a comical tone to them
I used to pick up these comics at the grocery whenever growing up but as time went on half the stores stopped carrying them so I got bits and pieces. Holy cow that was a way to fill in the gaps
I'm at a loss for words 😦 Truly............ My GOAT Robotnik is so washed, man 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 Like, stealing mail? REALLY?! I have to disavow bro. He's beyond redeemable. Truly VILE.
@@ProtoAlpha didnt he survived inside its little egg-thingy at the end of sonic colors? he survived a black hole in that case. and, are wew sure that bowser survived the black hole? wasnt rosalina saving everyone from that?
Dr Eggman for the numerous war crimes, crimes against humanity, crimes against mobians, and so on you have been sentenced to become property of Ken Panders in his latest comic book series Eggman the cyborg.
If you kill a killer you become a killer, however you also save all the people they were planning to kill on the long run. That is what most people doesnt get about the always morally good hero ideal.
You confuse disagreement with ignorance. They understand that but still don't want their heroes to turn into killers. You want ruthless killers, fine. Just don't call them heroes. That's sick.
@@EmptyMan000how are they not heroes? Killing doesn't make you less of a hero. Like they said, it's smart for the long term... on some occasions. Some villains can be redeemed, but some choose to be evil forever. If capturing them doesn't work, and they keep coming back, then what are you supposed to do?
The moment where he gunned down Sally with a fricking *Minigun* had left me speechless the first time I read it honestly. Yeah the dude is evil, heck he killed his entire world and came back for seconds, but I was Not expecting that in a Sonic comic, especially with how it was treated.
When you think about it, he ultimately won. He destroyed everything he hated and made everyone else suffer along the way. The only major comic book villain to truly triumph over the hero.
My favorite interpretation of the difference between the names "Robotnik" and "Eggman" is that Robotnik is his official name, and the one he uses for his more legal businesses. Where as Eggman is the pseudonym he uses for his criminal empires and illegal businesses. "The Eggman" being more like a nickname you would refer to the mob boss as.
"Tampering with other people's mail is a federal offense... As stated by the robot fish." That certainly is a sentence you'll only ever hear about Sonic comics.
If The Metal Virus Saga Was Originally Planned For Archie Man I Mean The Metal Virus Was Already Dark Enough With Sonic Almost Losing But Imagine This Archie Metal Virus
1:45 No books? No singing? No Friends? No exercise? I feel like some of these rules would be more useful for the round doctor... Books to archive any info incase of a data wipe, Singing songs of praise to the doc, being his friend and giving him company and joy, keeping healthy enough to be useful even in a fleshy yet somewhat regenerative form. Not complaining but there is a better more efficient way to rule the world with an iron fist...
its not about practicality, its about how suffering amuses him, even in the comedic early days. and its about making everyone know HE'S the source of their pain.
@sarafontanini7051 This is why I think the game continuity Eggman would be a better ruler, he's practical! This Dr.Robotnik isn't as glorious... He may wear the face of the good doctor but he lacks the wisdom along with it.
I still question how much of post genesis Eggman is like his pre genesis self. Actually which Robotnik became Post Genesis Wave Eggman now that I think about it. Was it the original Robotnik or was it Eggman/Robo Robotnik 2.0?
Technically speaking, it was Robo Robotnik that became the Eggman of the Post Genesis Wave Continuity, as he was the one with Sonic during the events of the Mega Man crossover.
its still eggman, he was jsut made a part of the setting, since the multiverse was destoryed and he was the surviving robotnik living in the prime mobius and was at the center of the universe chaging event.
Considering how different the Games version of Eggman is compared to one Julian Robotnik. Imagine if they had a story about good ol’ Dr. Ivo impersonating Julian after being banished from somewhere.
I actually noticed the characters in the Sonic comic are kinda more expressive but also more aggressive and violent than in other media. And I think Dr. Eggman has also always been rather ruthless and cruel in almost all the Sonic-related games and cartoons. And I can't help but feel pretty sad when for example Sonic or other characters were killed in Sonic 06, even though it was just temporary. I'm also saddened when Sonic or other characters are just threatened to be killed. I don't know but somehow it just drags down my mood. And I learned that the Sonic lore is rather full of tragedy such as the war going on. I have only recently become a fan of the Sonic series and tried to learn more about the lore and I started watching let's plays of the Sonic games I've missed out on so far. And I need to fully watch the first two Sonic movies too.
Man, the algorithm really pulled through in showing me this channel. Love me some Archie Sonic. Til this day, Archie Sonic is my head cannon's canonical Sonic
Archie Eggman killing M with little to no hesitation and IDW Eggman outright telling Belle he doesn't care about her anymore is exactly why I can't take any depictions of him being a good dad to Sage seriously.
“Ok so we have a goofy fat ball of cartoon evil scientist whose main goal in life is to beat a fast hedgehog. What wacky hijinks should he get up to?” “Make him kill his daughter”

well it was considered, but sonic couldn't bring himself to do it personnaly, and at the time knothole was run by an infighting bearuacracy that couldn't agree and made the insane decision to make Ixis Naugus, a literal evil wizard, king, so yeah they aren't great at deciding things.
for the most part most of the cast are good people who don't want to do anything remotely similar to Eggman and so cannot bring themselves to outright murder if they can avoid it.
and also when they captured him and defeated him seemingly for good, he was rendered harmless by his insanity so noone could quite bring up the nerve to hurt him because he wasn't even MALICIOUS anymore.
then he reasoned himself sane and escaped.
Being responsible for attempted murder on Doctor Light.
Dr Wily has standards, unlike this absolute monster.
@@robertlupa8273 Agreed, Dr. Wily practically strangled Eggman when he found out he tried to kill Light.
That crossover was so cool
Wait what??
@@StevenJones851 yeah. In the comics, there was a cross-over between Mega Man’s universe and Sonic’s. It was called When World Collied. And it’s fallow-up was When Worlds Unite. In the comics Robotnic (Eggman) met Dr. Wily and the two tried to become Gods and did several nefarious acts like turning all of Sonic’s friends into The Robotized Masters and pitting Mega Man and Sonic against one another. It was wild.
*Archie Sonic writer #1:* “Hey so we have this goofy egg shaped mad scientist that has some genuine redeeming qualities and is willing to team up with his enemies to fight a greater evil from the games that we need to adapt to these comics, what should we do?”
Archie Sonic writer #2:* “Make him a literal pure evil devil.”
I don't think he'd exactly shown any of those redeemable qualities. Archie Sonic started in like 1992. Before Sonic 3 even came out.
Although the early Archie Sonic comics had more of a comical tone to them
Having him killed by his creations.
I used to pick up these comics at the grocery whenever growing up but as time went on half the stores stopped carrying them so I got bits and pieces. Holy cow that was a way to fill in the gaps
Archie Eggman is one of the best versions of Dr. Eggman by so far!
I'm at a loss for words 😦
Truly............
My GOAT Robotnik is so washed, man 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Like, stealing mail? REALLY?! I have to disavow bro.
He's beyond redeemable. Truly VILE.
Omg man that's just crazy🤣🤣🤣🤣
that's almost as bad as lex luthor stealing forty cakes.
forty cakes.
that's as much as four tens.
and that's terrible.
The one with the dialogue from those puppets are crazy 💀
and that's why friends, Bowser Vs Dr.Eggman Death Battle WILL BE AMAZING
Bowser can survive a black hole I don't think Eggman's tech can beat that😅
@@ProtoAlpha No, but he can invent something that can.
@@ProtoAlpha Canon Eggman casually warping reality with the Phantasm Ruby in Sonic Forces: 💀
@@ProtoAlpha didnt he survived inside its little egg-thingy at the end of sonic colors?
he survived a black hole in that case.
and, are wew sure that bowser survived the black hole? wasnt rosalina saving everyone from that?
@@thetitanhater ...not exactly a crushing black hole is it😅
No healthy food actually meant he eventually created fried food factories.
Imagine the other comic eggman most terrible crime: CREATE A PANDEMIC (metal virus)
I’ve finally realized why Robotnik wears glasses and goggles.
His bald head is enough to kill a human
Dr Eggman for the numerous war crimes, crimes against humanity, crimes against mobians, and so on you have been sentenced to become property of Ken Panders in his latest comic book series Eggman the cyborg.
OH NAH, THATS TOO FAR FOR EVEN ARCHIE EGGMAN, NOT EVEN GRIFFINTH DESERVES THAT FATE
Good one but even he doesn't deserve such horrific fate
If you kill a killer you become a killer, however you also save all the people they were planning to kill on the long run.
That is what most people doesnt get about the always morally good hero ideal.
You confuse disagreement with ignorance. They understand that but still don't want their heroes to turn into killers. You want ruthless killers, fine. Just don't call them heroes. That's sick.
@@EmptyMan000how are they not heroes? Killing doesn't make you less of a hero. Like they said, it's smart for the long term... on some occasions. Some villains can be redeemed, but some choose to be evil forever. If capturing them doesn't work, and they keep coming back, then what are you supposed to do?
14:13 the WHAT SQUAD
The Sigma Alpha Squad. Very skibidi indeed
Wow,what a video,i dint expected much from the thumbnail but this was a pretty cool history
This just makes me love Dr. Eggman even more. Him being more evil makes him more like a villain.
Villains that we love to hate are so fun.
The moment where he gunned down Sally with a fricking *Minigun* had left me speechless the first time I read it honestly. Yeah the dude is evil, heck he killed his entire world and came back for seconds, but I was Not expecting that in a Sonic comic, especially with how it was treated.
I’m sure Kendrick would have a few choice words to say to robotnik about the crime at 1:56 😂
Kendreck?
Welcome to the calendar eggman
*psst, I see DEAD people*
*MUSTARD ON THE BEAT, HOE*
9:43 9:50 I love how grumpy shadow looks in those pages 😂
You seem to forget one of his cruelest crimest, Robotoising Tails' Dad on the day of his birth.
11:02 I read this one! It was really good.
2:23 I mean, all those words already describe discord mods
8:41 Oh... That's the one of the issue that I have back then
"A nice dream but dreams are made to be..._BROKEN_!"
what Eggman should've said when he came back from seemingly dying
Archie eggman is Shockwave's apprentice
More like teacher, Shockwave is far more chill compared to this mf.
When you think about it, he ultimately won. He destroyed everything he hated and made everyone else suffer along the way. The only major comic book villain to truly triumph over the hero.
Again, someone call CJ Da Champ and put this man on the Black Air Force Roundtable.
Can’t wait for more content from this channel!
16:01 The others i mostly understand, but Sonic's I REPEAT, SONIC'S PARENTS no longer exists!!!!???? That truly made me sad. 😢😢
My favorite interpretation of the difference between the names "Robotnik" and "Eggman" is that Robotnik is his official name, and the one he uses for his more legal businesses. Where as Eggman is the pseudonym he uses for his criminal empires and illegal businesses. "The Eggman" being more like a nickname you would refer to the mob boss as.
Damn, poor snivley
"Tampering with other people's mail is a federal offense... As stated by the robot fish." That certainly is a sentence you'll only ever hear about Sonic comics.
9:50 Shadow looks so pissed he couldn't kill Adam himself.
If The Metal Virus Saga Was Originally Planned For Archie
Man I Mean The Metal Virus Was Already Dark Enough With Sonic Almost Losing
But Imagine This
Archie Metal Virus
Dr. Robotnik starts off strong with turning people onto machine slaves, then he just becomes a moderator.
1:45 No books? No singing? No Friends? No exercise? I feel like some of these rules would be more useful for the round doctor...
Books to archive any info incase of a data wipe, Singing songs of praise to the doc, being his friend and giving him company and joy, keeping healthy enough to be useful even in a fleshy yet somewhat regenerative form. Not complaining but there is a better more efficient way to rule the world with an iron fist...
its not about practicality, its about how suffering amuses him, even in the comedic early days.
and its about making everyone know HE'S the source of their pain.
@sarafontanini7051 This is why I think the game continuity Eggman would be a better ruler, he's practical! This Dr.Robotnik isn't as glorious... He may wear the face of the good doctor but he lacks the wisdom along with it.
Yah i love this version Eggman is so dark and good show how far he willing to go
I like IDW and game Eggman a lot, but Archie Eggman is like one of a kind.
3:32 That's a good question?
The discord joke had me laughing out loud
Sniffley's fate still gives me nightmares... 😨😖

1:56 It’s funny how it’s always Sally. Geoffrey St. John also had a short fling with her, however, he’s 20-21 and Sally was 16 at the time
16:01 God don't remind me, it's still to painful
0:32 so this is cj dachamps roundtable of black air force activity but comic book themed?
2:20
Now I want to to see "The Crimes of Sally Acorn (Pre-Robotization)".
Make it happen.
I still question how much of post genesis Eggman is like his pre genesis self. Actually which Robotnik became Post Genesis Wave Eggman now that I think about it. Was it the original Robotnik or was it Eggman/Robo Robotnik 2.0?
Technically speaking, it was Robo Robotnik that became the Eggman of the Post Genesis Wave Continuity, as he was the one with Sonic during the events of the Mega Man crossover.
its still eggman, he was jsut made a part of the setting, since the multiverse was destoryed and he was the surviving robotnik living in the prime mobius and was at the center of the universe chaging event.
The crime of referencing almost every robotnik YTP in a singular issue
OH IT'S FROM THE SHOW! IT'S FROM THE SHOW! IT'S FROM THE SHOW!
Considering how different the Games version of Eggman is compared to one Julian Robotnik. Imagine if they had a story about good ol’ Dr. Ivo impersonating Julian after being banished from somewhere.
I actually noticed the characters in the Sonic comic are kinda more expressive but also more aggressive and violent than in other media. And I think Dr. Eggman has also always been rather ruthless and cruel in almost all the Sonic-related games and cartoons. And I can't help but feel pretty sad when for example Sonic or other characters were killed in Sonic 06, even though it was just temporary. I'm also saddened when Sonic or other characters are just threatened to be killed. I don't know but somehow it just drags down my mood. And I learned that the Sonic lore is rather full of tragedy such as the war going on. I have only recently become a fan of the Sonic series and tried to learn more about the lore and I started watching let's plays of the Sonic games I've missed out on so far. And I need to fully watch the first two Sonic movies too.
great vid
And here i was thinking archie sonic comics were for kids...
Julian Robotnik from Sonic SatAM was the most vile version of Eggman in Sonic media, scared the 💩 out of me as a kid.
that's basically who this version of eggman is, he started off based directly on teh SatAM robotnik, hence why he's so evil
1:56 background music name?
@@bigfloppa9023 Sonic 3D Blast Beta Boss theme!
@@ArchieSonicLore thanks
🤑
Great video! One thing I was hoping you'd mention is Robotnik's attempted murder on Dr. Light during the first Mega Man crossover.
Ahh, now that you mention it I wish I had included it lol
@@ArchieSonicLore still a great video. Well done 👍
I want the Dark Egg Legion back so much, Screw the Game's Eggman Empire and it's robots, I need Grandmasters and Egg Bosses!
Never knew Archie Eggman was invited to the Diddy party
Dude Archie Eggman is getting sent into the Sun for all those crimes man, that’s a fitting sentence.
Robotnik plays with dolls, wait is this Sonic or Space Balls ?
I never thought the Metal Virus arc was supposed to be for Archie Sonic.
Fleetway Robotnik is also kind of wild.
Archie eggman is insane
Man, the algorithm really pulled through in showing me this channel. Love me some Archie Sonic. Til this day, Archie Sonic is my head cannon's canonical Sonic
Archie Eggman killing M with little to no hesitation and IDW Eggman outright telling Belle he doesn't care about her anymore is exactly why I can't take any depictions of him being a good dad to Sage seriously.
Archie is not canon.
7:43
...That's just a DragonBall character.
Game Eggman: I maybe evil but that’s too far even for my standards.
Archie: MAKE EVERY MOBAIN A ROBOT!! THEY’LL WORK FOR ME!! I’LL **** EVERY CITY!!
16:50 Ahh yes I remember eggman making an announcement and saying he’s pissing on the moon…
Wait if Penders was the cause of Sega’s reboot, does that make Ken Penders Doctor Eggman? 😂
In the comics Dr. Robotnik and Eggman are two different people Eggman took robotniks place when he was Erased
I fucking ADORE this Robotnik ! Once Bollers and Flynn got their hands on Robo Robotnik 2.0/ Dr Eggman, I had no idea I was in for a great time !
Never realized that this eggman is worse than the adventure games version
1:59, so he's like, p Diddy
How could he have known that was Sally is that was real he would’ve thought egg man dropped tomatoes.
does anyone know where the dr robotnik art from 0:42 comes from? I've looked everywhere I could think of but can't find it
@@PixelatedPerfection Sonic Select Volume 8!
@@ArchieSonicLore Thank you!
archie eggman you are guilty for all crimes in the archie comics
“Ok so we have a goofy fat ball of cartoon evil scientist whose main goal in life is to beat a fast hedgehog. What wacky hijinks should he get up to?”
“Make him kill his daughter”
ironically him killing his daughter is the one time we see him display any actual empathy or sadness for someone other than himself.
I find it funny how of the few comics I have phyisical copies of, its Sally being murdered in the new death-egg, and adam revealing his bullshit with tommy.
Good times
Jesus Christ, archie eggman was an absolute menace. Reminds me of Bowser in the Mario galaxy games and the first paper mario
