    I loved this video. These three have always been the characters I immediately think of when it comes to comedic sidekicks of Dr. Robotnik/Eggman.

    Who else thinks that Tom Kenny and Bill Fagerbakker should voice Scratch and Grounder in a future Sonic cartoon

    A genius idea would be to have the other robots from Mean Bean Machine to join the SSSSS Squad (S.S.S.S.S.S.); that would be cool! It's very neat that they kept the goofy personalities for the three and that is so good that you pointed out the details with the ears and the eyes like that. Well done!
    PS: Spot on voices! Made me laugh!

    This is really cool, I remember watching the reviews you made for the “Genesis” story arc years ago, loved those. Good to see Archie Sonic still being given time nowadays

    Thanks for this! Finding some more of the Archie Sonic pages online is a pain lol. Plus I enjoyed your commentary and I especially enjoyed the VA work at the end. That was my thought too! Grounder would say that if he just likes snow globes and while it's a good silent panel with their reactions telling it all, I kinda wished they had added a soft little aside like that to make it obvious why he said that. (I also like how Breezie does a "Yes and" with everything they said and her changing expressions while plotting.)
    I've been doing a deep dive into AoStH ever since (30 years late lol) I realized it has actual lore. Of course I was on the Sonic wiki which reminded me the S6 did appear in the comics sometimes. It's a shame they never used the S6 for deeper stories since the twins especially actually have a lot of generational trauma to deal with throughout the AoStH episodes but unfortunately there's just not enough room to tell those stories after tacking on the melodrama of SatAM and in general the Archie comics started bending under the weight of all the details they'd also created so... yeah not surprised. I also suppose the writers just didn't want to deal with explaining they're twins and clones and that silliness (or write about them bickering) every time they wrote the bros into an issue which is why they settled on Coconuts instead. And I do like Coconuts but I just absolutely fell in love with Scratch and Grounder recently lol they really do make AoStH what it is. (I didn't used to like them or AoStH as much as SatAM and Sally and Bunnie but I've definitely come to appreciate what AoStH had to offer, especially since Sonic Underground was such a massive disappointment and to this day I'm not sure I can forgive it... SU rustled all of my jimmies!)
    I WAS amused as soon as I saw the redesign for Scratch. My immediate thought, with those big round eyes, was FNAF and turns out those games released and blew up right around the same year when that story arc was released. It could've been pure coincidence, I know they referenced Clucker and there are similarities (and that was Scratch's initial inspiration obviously too) but I'm not surprised by the redesign giving me FNAF vibes either lol. I mean the FNAF are all chunkier overall but it's a sensible nod as well IMHO and he looks really cute except when they try to do different angles but then Scratch has always had that problem. He's not complex but he has atypical design that's a little hard to imagine in 3D space. I love how he looks but I understand and if someone hasn't seen the shortcuts the cartoon went with, it makes sense to just wreck him by accident in a front view or have trouble figuring out his mouth for certain expressions.
    Thank goodness the artist for Breezie's Arc was better than the one from the Mammoth Mogul two-parter... like on the surface that person was serviceable but for example Scratch is just some rando human body from the looks of it lol his neck is too thick and squat for his birbness. The boys all had a hard life getting good art even though they had reasonably simple designs from the very beginning. I've warmed up to their redesigns but still not fond of Coconuts without ears myself. I really like that they subbed Breezie in for Mogul and I think it's a shame the four of them didn't get much else (especially since the wiki said Ian planned on a reveal that Breezie was still a robot.)
    I haven't seen your Breezie video yet but I just found your channel. It amused me to realize AoStH had at least two characters most likely inspired by Jessica Rabbit and although I can't prove a single thing, I wouldn't be surprised if Archie's Breezie was inspired at least a little bit by Rayn from Jak X Combat Racing. She might not be, Breezie and Rayn might be inspired by some other, much older character and the "Sneaky Conniving Spy" is super common for female antagonists of course, but that's just kinda what I thought of based on her ruthless yet charming revision, especially given the tournament play and stuff.
    Anyway, thanks if you read all this, sorry to ramble so much! My brain is hardwired to analyze everything so I love analysis videos. :D

    Now despite the man only appearing in Archie for like 2 panels I need you to make the Wes Weasley video man. Like probably the biggest miss opportunity the archie book had man. Legit surprised that guy didn't appear in like the gag era archie days because he would have worked like so perfectly for that era man, Giving Robotnik crappy gadgets to destroy Sonic with just like in the cartoon. Could even give him some character development like what the cartoon was kinda doing. Like making him not a fan of Robotnik in later episodes but only working with him because he pays well. He maybe could have been like a sleeper agent for both sides or something. Like he would just work for who ever pays enough. Maybe considering he was like a tv advertiser in the fighters arc they could have made him like strike out on his own and find another way to make cash. Which would clearly be making it big.

    Now imagine a parallel universe where Robotnik actually make complete and competent versions of those three... 😬😰

    2:17 it's a shame that the two never officially got married in the comics considering they were one of the sweetest couples in the comics unless you count the events from the 25 years later storyline

      They had the potential to be, anyway, but Penders put them through so much garbage that it was hard to actually root for them. He had this sick fascination with love triangles, ntr, needless romantic drama and so on and so forth
