Infinity Crisis ( Massive Multiplayer Crossover Sonic and several of his friends showed up in several spin-offs, so far, and it's hinted that the universe they live on in this fic is a sort of patchwork of different continuities).Flashpoint 2: Advent Solaris (crossover with the DC Animated Movie Universe).Fate Genesis (crossover with Fate/stay night).The CRONIES (crossover with several franchises).Clash of the Elements (crossover with several franchises). Chaotic Harmony (crossover with My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic).Break The Walls Down (crossover with My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic).Adventures of Mario and Sonic (crossover with Super Mario Bros.). (Not to mention that Quack also gets to be the pivotal character in the Sally coma subplot on top of his role in creating the Ultimate Annihilator. Quack played more of a role in taking down Robotnik than any of the Freedom Fighters, who mostly spend the bulk of that arc going “oh boo hoo, I can’t believe Sonic is definitely a traitor” - except, of course, for Sally, who was in a coma for the whole arc and didn’t get to help at all. His (previously unseen) family gets kidnapped to coerce him into helping build the Ultimate Annihilator, the most powerful weapon ever made, the device the entire plot hinges around, the thing that literally kills Robotnik. He’s not just Knothole’s medical doctor or a guy with an exuberant personality, he’s also this absurd genius inventor who gets personally targeted by Robotnik. It’s also VERY WEIRD that this character who had only been introduced four issues prior to the start of Endgame ends up being such a pivotal character. Yeah, he has more personality than most of the other characters at that time, but like… that’s what was weird about it? Why does this doctor waltz in with no setup and get to be the writer’s pet when, over 40 issues in, I’m still waiting for half of the main cast to develop a personality? But it’s still very weird that this random doctor character shows up and immediately starts chewing the scenery. Like many things from that era of the comics, he’s not the worst, especially compared to stuff that came later. Quack, but it’s also kind of impossible for me to disentangle him from the guy who made him I will admit that knowing who made him definitely colored my opinions of Dr. But as far as flashback appearances and stuff like that goes, it’s entirely possible that they just don’t want mentions of him to come off as foreshadowing for a grand return that isn’t gonna happen Off the top of my head, the RI cover for #40 where Eggman is streaming on Twitch had a clear reference to him. With the series already hinging so heavily around Eggman’s takeover, they may be trying to avoid turning the series into Sonic Forces 2Īlso, it’s not like references to Infinite are TOTALLY off-limits.
