How Sonic came to be...

The Origin of Sonic.

I never knew this before, and thought it was interesting.
It does explain Sonic's blue colouring and why Robotnik was dubbed 'Eggman'.
It also looks like Sonic never knew how to tie his shoelaces, probably the reason why he now has buckles..

Interesting...

My friend told me about the origin of Sonic, and now I've seen it with my own eyes.

Thanks for sharing!

I hardly think the Archie comics can be considered canon. >_>;

Trust me, I used to read them regularly. Completely different universe to the games.

The story is so much better than the games, though.

I really want to read all the Sonic Archie comics and watch the SatAM show completely. Those are the best.

I've heard about this before. Interesting. But of course this clearly isn't the case in the games, because how would Knuckles be red and so on.

Maybe it's better now, but when I stopped reading it was starting to get really lame.

This is purely the Archie Comic story...
And... its lame.

Hey, it's still better than the new cartoons and especially Sonic X.

I wish Jaleel White would have done Sonic in Sonic X.

lol at people who think it's Archie comic.

It's from "Sonic the Comic," which was released in the UK :p
Not canon, but definitely an interesting take 3nodding

Yeh this isn't an Archie comic, but it does make it hard to explain how the rest of the Sonic Universe characters got their powers and colouring.

What Sega needs to do is make more games that explain Sonic and co's past, not all this new werehog and storybook s**t.

Actually, they had a little mini-arc explaining how Amy became pink.
Same way Sonic did apparantly.
Robotnik was trying to re-create the even that made Sonic what he is so that he could get supah-powers as well. But Amy, a member of the resistance even then, messed it up, and got caught in the explosion as well.

Never explains Knuckles or Tails though...

Sonic is a hedgehog, and he's fast. He doesn't need a ******** origin.  

[Ribbin]

Sonic Comics are ******** awesome.  

[Waynebrizzle]

That's one of the weirdest origins I've ever read.

Wouldn't friction-reducing shoes make you run slower?

You'd have to put down more weight with each step to avoid sliding all over the place.
