what if silver and sonic failed to stop the virus and it turned out the badniks were the only ones who could stop it. what if this was our introduction to belle. what if metal teamed up with her, orbot and cubot and became the hero he always believed he was.

hey uh what do you guys think getting robotized during the metal virus felt like and do you think the infected were aware of what they were doing and helpless to stop it

like did the liquid metal feel like glue drying over your hands and encasing you? slowly going numb? stiffening? did it hurt?

and were they unconscious or just out of control? did it scare them to see what they were doing, or were they blacked out and didn't know at all?

Phineas & Ferb L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N : you're just like us! An evil scientist with an animal nemesis :D

Eggman, who has created a mass extinction level epidemic and only lost because the virus developed on its own to the point he himself was no longer immune to it:

Based on a conversation I had with my friend lol

Sonic and the little yellow wrist comm he never takes off.

Can’t blame him though, through that wrist comm he has this view!

I love idw comics but I gotta complain

Sonic just acts stupid this whole arc, but SPECIALLY regarding Metal

Brother Metal is quite literally lobotomized he does NOT have a choice and Sonic KNOWS THIS why dows he pretend otherwise???

METAL LITERALLY told him so to his face the previous arc, why did he forgot? Is he stupid?

Also also he CHOSE to let him go and “respect his decision”, but then goes and DOESN’T respect it when its one that he doesn’t like (again, not like it was a real choice on the first place, but IF it was, Sonic already knew that this would happen and was ok with it????)

Also, no, they DID NOT give him freedom, they literally had him there and instead of reprogramming him to stop being loyal to Eggman they just let him go. Why the hell are they acting surprised when the machine programed to follow Eggman… follows Eggman???? As programmed???? Idw is incredibly unfair to Metal, that man is a slave and the narrative blames him for it

More given the fact that Mr.tinker was in the same situation (Turning back to evil ways by something out of their choice) yet Sonic condones Mr.thinker and berates Metal for the exact same situation???? Sonic what is your moral compass on this arc I do not get you

This isn’t freedom, this is the illusion of freedom, they’re giving him an offering he really can’t take as much as he’d want to. They did absolute jackshit to help him, he lacks the agency to help himself then blame him for it

Honestly Shadow and Espio were right, the metal virus was Sonic’s fault, but not for letting Mr.Tinker live. His sin was’t his compassion toward him, his sin was expecting Metal to overwrite the coding that makes him a slave

Honestly I could make a whole rant about how much I hate Sonic’s writing in early idw but I won’t because they had gotten better and thank god he’s no longer like that
