    So... ALL MOBIANS WERE ANIMALS , MUTATED BY GENE BOMB FROM ALIENS
    AND THISE ANIMALS GETTING A LOT OF HUMAN DNA MUTATED INTO ANTROPOMORPHIC CREATURES, MOBIANS.
    And the all Sonic Heroes and Mobians are
    in that Bunch , now when the war is over coexisting with the newcreated species/race Mobians which goes in Sonic X .
    Am I correctly understood that.

      Yeah, more or less. Also, from what I remember, the bombs destroyed all life on Earth, including plants, so theoretically, there could have been some plant-animal or plant-human Mobians... However, this happened thousands of years before the events of the comics, so there is a possibility that they just went extinct at some point and that's why we never saw them. Maybe their reproduction systems didn't work or smth.
      Nah, it would make too much sense lore wise. In reality, the authors may have just not thought about that

      I remember that story in Archie comics. Talking animals on planet Mobius are mutants because of aliens attacking Earth and the nuclear explosions made the human DNA mixed up with the animals, but not in general since there are some regular animals. As for the British comics (they admit that in the letter section for Archie) well, Robotnik came from Earth to Mobius, just like in the comics that are featured here. Both planets are different in the British version.

    • @inkchariot6147
      @inkchariot6147 2 года назад +3

      Mobius and anything from Archie doesn't exist, that's all americanized bullshit. It was always Earth, an Earth with many islands where the animal people live, and the continents where mostly humans live. Sonic was created in Japan, so the Japanese continuity is the true continuity.
      America threw away everything Yuji Naka and Iizuka gave them in terms of Sonic's real origin. They not only messed with his design, but gave him Bart Simpson's personality.

      Jim Carrey took allot if his inspiration for the character from Jim Cummings Robotnik, also known as the SatAm Robotnik. You can hear it in how he talks, punctuates his statements, and what he says. "Hello Hedgehog, Miss Me?" from the second movie is as direct a reference to SatAm as one can get and Lt. Stone is obviously modeled after early Snively. Much like his orb robots being a direct reference to the surveillance drones in SatAm. The vehicle he uses at the end of the first movie is modeled after the ship he arrives in during the pilot of SatAm with hints of the Shriek Bot. Sonic in the movies even jokes about an uncle Chuck.

    One thing to point out on Eggman/Ivo Robotnik's name is that the name IVO is backwards of OVI wich is a term of Egg, so the essence of the character's original name is still there.

    Just as a note the archie comics were hard rebooted at issue 252. The timeline is all new but with redesigned freedom fighters and changed up, simplified, more game friendly plot elements of the old archie timeline, and fits more nicely with the games continuity (retelling Unleashed at that point). The Eggman in that timeline is more or less the same as video game eggman but has more territory and mobian commanders known as egg bosses.

    I remember there were some cool kids books in the 90s that touched on this topic.
    The one I remember most clearly posited that Robotnik had been a kindly scientist, and Sonic some sort of lab assistant.
    Robotnik (Kintobor?) was doing experiments on the Rings! One day he gave Sonic a special pair of shoes he'd made (yes, THE shoes!), and Sonic uses them to test out his speed without burning through the soles, but an accident with his speed interferes with the Doctor's experiment.
    The power of the rings goes haywire, and the resulting explosion transforms thin, kindly (Kintobor?) into the rotund Robotnik we love & hate! (Hey, it was a kids book in the 90s. Don't judge!)
    I always liked the idea of him experimenting with the rings, but not so much him and Sonic knowing each other before he turns evil.
    As a side note, the Archie comics introduced the idea of a "mirror" universe where everyone was opposite of their usual selves. That universe's Robitnik was a tall, thin, kind man named Kintobor who made robots whose job it was to clean up trash and sweep the streets clean! Love that so much! 😁

    As a kid I had an early reader chapter book loosely based on SATAM Sonic where Julian Robotnik was an orphan raised by Uncle Chuck alongside Sonic. He was always a nasty kid and frequently stolenthings from Chuck's workshop to build his robots. One day Robotnik stole some parts from a tractor which resulted in Chick losing control of it and almost ran Robotnik over. Initially Chuck thought itbwas his own fault but one of Robotnik's robots ratted him out, and the ensuing argument caused Robotnik to run away

    An Overlander named Julian Kintobor, from the house of Ivo, betrayed his people during The Great War.
    He ran away, and found refuge with the Mobians, the nemeses of the Overlanders.
    His scientific and war knowledge seemed very valuable to the Mobians, as well as his knowledge of his own kind's nature.
    They appointed him War Lord, and gave him extreme powers.
    Before long, he exiled the King and the other military higher ups, and began Robotocizing Mobians. He eventually converted roughly half of the Mobians on Mobius.
    He was killed by his own invention during a battle with Sonic the Hedgehog. His nephew, Snively, had betrayed him and sabotaged the device.
    About 2 years later, another Eobotnik from an alternate dimension arrived. He downloaded every essence of the original into his being. He was, himself, Robotocizes.
    The Mobians destroyed his body, but he had dozens of replacements to download into.
    He started calling himself "Eggman" about this time. Sonic used this as an insult prior, and he "re-owned" it.

    @jasimawwad9612 6 месяцев назад

    Here's how I imagine the origins of Mobius.
    So, it's explained why Mobius has anthromorphic animals. It's because the Ancients used their powers to create Mobians to live among the humans of Mobius. But the two sides didn't get along and the Mobians had 3 islands. The Hedgehogs had Westside Island, the Acorns had South Island, and the Echidnas had Angel Island. The 3 islands had a plan to conquer the human territories, so the Echidnas teamed up with the Chao to recreate the power of the original Chaos Emeralds with Chao Technology and ancient Echidna magic to create the Master Emerald. A Emerald that can give anyone ultimate power and become gods. As they went to war with the humans, the 3 Islands conquered the human territory but the leader, Chaos saw what they were using the power for and was threatened. So, Chaos took back the Master Emerald and the 3 islands attacked him and his Chao to steal it back. But the daughter of the chief, Tikal, stopped the violence and used the forbidden power to defeat everyone and secure her and Chaos in the Emerald. As most of the Echidnas were killed with some survivors escaping to start better lives for their families, the Hedgehogs and Acorns made peace with the Humans and promised to make sure nobody would use the power of the Master Emerald ever again.
    And the rings would have been created by Hedgehogs and Acorns, in order to harness the power of the Master Emerald and gives it's power to others who uses the Power Rings, giving them invincibility, speed, power, and strength.
    What does anyone think of this idea?
    Also, great video. I've always Robotnik a.k.a Eggman being a mixture of the Satam version and the game version. Being funny and ridiculous but also threatening and evil. 😉👍

The comics had the original story in it and none of what was in this video was the original story. Just random mixed stories added later to be filler. The original story was Robotnik was a genius scientist that was working on a machine to help the animals become smarter. Sonic was his lab assistant with some modifications to make him smarter. Sonic when bringing Robotnik his lunch (hard boiled egg and coke) he accidentally spills it onto Robotnik's computer. Causing a massive explosion that mutated Robotnik with the egg and coke making his body shaped as an egg and the coke and computer mix made him more intelligent. He blames the deformity on sonic and attacks him. Swearing vengeance against Sonic he captures all the animals of the forest the destroy Sonic. The core story was focused on the story of dr.jekell and mr.hyde.

  • @AuroEsium
    @AuroEsium Месяц назад

    This became way to big and before anyone ask, this I used AI to make this idea makes a bit more sense bur the idea on Eggman back story and trying to compare something based on what we have on the lore of Eggman, I think I may have a hint of an idea:
    Considering the debate between the "two worlds" theory and the "mixed world" theory within the Sonic fandom, it's clear that the interpretation of Eggman's actions and the settings of the Sonic games can vary widely among fans. The "two worlds" theory posits that the games take place across two separate realms-one inhabited by humans (Earth) and another by anthropomorphic animals (Sonic's world)-with characters occasionally traveling between them. The "mixed world" theory, on the other hand, suggests that all events occur on a single Earth, albeit one that differs significantly from our own, populated by both humans and animal characters coexisting.
    Given this context, the notion of Eggman "escaping to Sonic's world" might not align perfectly with either theory, as both interpretations complicate the idea of distinct worlds. Instead, Eggman's actions could be viewed through the lens of his evolving strategies and objectives within the constraints of the Sonic universe's established continuity.
    Eggman's activities, particularly in games like "Sonic Unleashed" and "Sonic Forces," suggest a shifting focus away from direct confrontations with G.U.N. towards more localized battles against Sonic and his allies. This shift could be interpreted as a tactical decision, allowing Eggman to operate with reduced scrutiny from G.U.N. while he concentrates on defeating Sonic. Such a strategy enables Eggman to pursue his goals more freely, leveraging the advanced technology and unique environments of Sonic's world to his advantage.
    Regarding the issue of casualties, it's plausible that Eggman views the harm caused by his machines as an unfortunate but acceptable consequence of his pursuit of power. While direct evidence of Eggman intentionally causing deaths is scarce, the collateral damage resulting from his aggressive tactics cannot be overlooked. In "Sonic Forces," for instance, the operation of the Death Egg and the deployment of Eggman's robots lead to widespread destruction and endangerment of civilians, indicating a willingness on Eggman's part to sacrifice innocent lives for his ambitions.
    In conclusion, Eggman's motivations and actions can be understood as part of a complex interplay between his personal ambitions, the geopolitical landscape of the Sonic universe, and his ongoing rivalry with Sonic. Whether operating within a "two worlds" or "mixed world" framework, Eggman's strategies reflect a calculated approach to achieving his goals, even if it means navigating the nuances of the Sonic universe's continuity and the moral implications of his actions.
    As Eggman navigates his late 50s to early 60s, the echoes of the Space Colony ARK incident still reverberate through his life, a haunting reminder of the path that led him to Sonic's world. This pivotal event, unfolding 45 to 50 years ago, wasn't merely a personal crisis; it was a clarion call to action against the creeping authoritarianism of G.U.N. Escaping to Sonic's world via a portal, Eggman found not just sanctuary but a battlefield-a realm where his ideals could flourish beyond the reach of G.U.N.'s iron fist.
    Yet, this new beginning was fraught with challenges. G.U.N.'s awareness of the Sonic world introduced a delicate balance of power. With a policy of cautious observation, G.U.N. lurked in the shadows, ever-watchful for any sign that might justify intervention. Eggman, acutely aware of this looming threat, understood that his actions in Sonic's world were not just about personal ambition-they were a strategic defense against a dystopian future.
    Thus, Eggman's relentless pursuit of power and the construction of his robotic army were not acts of mere villainy but calculated moves in a chess game against G.U.N. Each encounter with Sonic and his allies, each setback and victory, served as a testament to Eggman's unwavering resolve. He fought not for the sake of domination but to safeguard a world that offered him a glimpse of freedom, a utopia untainted by the oppressive regime he had fled.
    Eggman's journey, then, is a tale of survival and adaptation, a narrative woven with threads of ambition, fear, and a profound sense of duty. His actions, though often misguided and harmful, stem from a place of deep-seated conviction-a belief that the ends justify the means when the alternative is a world shackled by tyranny.
    In the grand tapestry of the Sonic universe, Eggman emerges not just as a villain but as a complex character, driven by a past that haunts him and a future he is desperate to shape. His story serves as a stark reminder of the thin line between heroism and villainy, and the intricate dance of power that defines our struggles against oppression.
    As we witness Eggman's schemes and confrontations, let us remember the layers beneath his exterior. Beyond the caricature of a mad scientist lies a man molded by adversity, fighting against the specter of a dystopian future. It is a perspective that adds depth to the narrative, inviting us to see Eggman not merely as an adversary, but as a character embroiled in a battle far greater than any single showdown with Sonic.
    In the annals of the Sonic universe, Eggman's journey stands as a cautionary tale-a stark reminder of how the quest for liberation can morph into a mirror image of oppression. Born into a world shadowed by G.U.N.'s authoritarian presence, Eggman's formative years lacked the guiding light of parental wisdom, a void that perhaps contributed to his radicalization. Similarly, the tragic tale of Gerald and Maria, intertwined with G.U.N.'s machinations, underscores the cyclical nature of vengeance and the corruption of noble intentions.
    Eggman, driven by anger and a desire to break free from the chains of G.U.N.'s control, ironically became the very thing he sought to oppose-a tyrant bent on reshaping the world in his image. His transformation from a disillusioned youth to a mad genius hell-bent on global domination is a testament to the corrupting influence of unchecked power and the blinding effect of rage.
    Without the tempering influence of family or a moral compass to guide him, Eggman's vision of a utopia free from G.U.N.'s grip warped into a dystopian nightmare. His relentless pursuit of power, once a beacon of hope against authoritarianism, devolved into a campaign of terror, mirroring the very oppression he vowed to eradicate.
    Thus, Eggman's story is not just one of villainy but of tragedy-a tale of a man who, in his zeal to liberate, became ensnared by the very forces he rebelled against. It serves as a reminder that the road to tyranny is paved with good intentions gone awry, and that the true battle lies not just in opposing external enemies but in confronting the darkness within ourselves.
    In the end, Eggman's legacy is a bitter irony-a mad genius who, in his quest to overthrow the oppressors, became the oppressor, a poignant symbol of the cycle of violence and the elusive nature of freedom. 🌍🛡️
