Eggman's descent into madness! 

You summed it up perfectly

​@FantasticSamtastic Robo robotnik was always a robot that first version was always a machine, just built to look organic. Then just before he was turned fully organic he did away with the ruse just to go full grey. To go with that he also had the ability to Roboticize people just by touching them. But because Sega wanted him to be more online with Eggman from the games they made him fully organic again.

It's always fun when someone recognizes a song!

He kinda had it coming 😅

Exactly, the final loss before he snapped was the straw that broke the camel's back

@@FantasticSamtastic Between the destruction of Sonic’s home and Eggman’s breakdown, we see hints of it coming. There are really good stories leading up to it.

You've brought in a new perspective I had not considered. I left that part out as I've briefly touched on it previously and I didn't think it would add much. Though this is something I had not considered and I'll have to make a more thorough video covering that. Thank you!

@@FantasticSamtastic Your welcome, thank you

The comics still used the name Robotnik up until the reboot. Older folks tended to call him Robotnik while younger ones tended to call him Eggman. Sometimes Sonic would whip out a "Robotnik" or "Ro-butt-nik" for old times sake, but yeah, it just kinda depended on who was talking about him and why. It feels more real that way.

By Adventure 1 they were interchangeable because Sega of America would bring the Eggman name as just Sonic’s nickname for the the doctor. But his name was still Robotnik. But Avdenture 2 they went full “no his name is eggman just call him that”. But Sega themeseleves would adopt Ivo Robotnik was his actual name, and Eggman was just something he decided to call himself.

I like the comparison tbh

Sorry I must have missed adding the list in the video. Here are the comics seen in this video: 108, 110, 116, 118, 132, 200, 201, 204, 205, 206, 208, 209, 210, 211, 218, 224, 225, 226, 228, 229, 230, 231, 251, 252, 253,

@@FantasticSamtastic Thank you very much! I really appreciate you doing that!

Different model

To quote one of Eggman's last lines to Snively: "Nobody knows you're here except for me. And it's going to stay that way for the rest of your life." That to me sounds a lot like he's here until he dies inside of the capsule Eggman put him in. That's killing.

@@FantasticSamtastic he was clearly still alive in world's collide and that was for several months, clearly he's being fed and being told how he lost by eggman every so often

@@anthonysmith3415 Right, but if you're going to keep someone locked away for their entire life you've effectively sentenced them to a very slow death. It's not living if you're trapped in a small room for your entire life

@@FantasticSamtastic you're reaching just to prove that eggman killed snively but he is by definition still alive, just mentally broken and slowly dying one day at a time like we're all doing, he was not killed, please don't say things that didn't happen in the comics it's spreading misinformation and that's not really a good thing, not trying to be rude but this information is incorrect and I'm just being pragmatic about this

@@anthonysmith3415 At the end of the day we aren't going to agree on this, this is my interpretation that Eggman leaving Snively to rot in a cell is essentially the same as killing him. Seeing his cell in Worlds Collide doesn't change the fact that he's left there to rot. If someone is locked away somewhere and no one is told where that place is or is even aware that they are locked away, they may as well be dead. This always read to me like Yu-Gi-Oh's Shadow Realm where people who were meant to be dead would be sent to to be forgotten about because it was too much for kids media. If not for Ken's drama, the last we see Snively is when Eggman is leaving him, beaten and unable to speak to stay in a hidden cell. There's no mention that he's going to feed him or treat him well in any way and so it can very well be interpreted as him giving Snively a torturous end. This is a guy who is responsible for Robotnik's death and who is responsible for locking away Eggman and so, with that in mind it's hard not to read into that page. Heck, in Worlds Collide I'm pretty sure we only see the top of Snively's head and his foot, he can't even discern what his physical condition is. We can blame my reasoning on my lit background and the fact that I'm used to making claims based on things read between the lines lol.

I guess she did.

She wanted no more pain for the others so yeah.

Even in the games Sega state his name is Ivo Robotnik but Sonic kept calling him Eggman, and he decided to accept it.

I plan to!

Lol, it just needs some extra fingers

@@FantasticSamtastic IKR?! Also: Why do Robotnik‘s eyes change? Do the comics provide an explanation for that?
