#Anti-Knuckles

[one-half-guy]

Anti-Knuckles: Violence is never the answer!

Knuckles: Exactly, it's a question!

Anti-Knuckles: ...

Knuckles: And the answer is always "yes"!

Scourge and Knuckles never meet in the comics, even though he used the Master Emerald to get a power boost, leading to a permanent mutation, etc etc.

So at some point after the prison break, Scourge is living on Mobius since his old team has taken over the anti-dimension,

The M.E has judged him for using it's power recklessly, so he is constantly "leaking" chaos energy, and it's slowly tearing his body apart. Sometimes it gets too overwhelming and causes his scars to reopen. He ends up going to Knuckles to return the excess energy. And although, it doesn't stop the problem 100%, but they've made a monthly routine out of it.

They're not friends, but now he hates Knuckles the least. The chao seem to have taken a liking to him though.But is it because of the chaos energy? Or because maybe deep down he has the potential to be a decent person?

Okay interesting detail I just noticed.

Surge is green, the same color as Sonic's eyes.

Kit is blue/teal, the same color as Tails's eyes.

Dunno if that's on purpose but it's interesting.

So I think that if Starline had created an anti-Knuckles, they should be purple, like Knuckles's eyes.

okay,,, here's some sketches for my Epic Au,, some designs are subject to change since these are just sketches but I rlly like some of them !!

I'll hopefully make better drawings that introduce the characters in their roles once I have their design figured out but enjoy these for now !!

You can't name any other franchise where you have to deal with this shit

[madychi]

Decided to redesign the Anti’s my way (and make them for IDW cuz why not?)

[crusherthedoctor]

me: *sees preview page for next idw issue*

...where's Knuckles... you have the idw ocs and a random koala, but no Knuckles?

Also... Tangle's team has four team members since Mimic is there. If that's the case and you can have four team members, Knuckles' absence here stings even more.

I think someone in the crew might actually have a problem with Knuckles.

I know he's not in Stellar either, but that's because I'm insistent on only using characters who I can give a meaty role that isn't limited to one isolated highlight at most, rather than inserting everyone for the sake of it and making the same mistake as '06, or having a plot where only one character truly shines like Black Knight.

Same reason why Blaze isn't present. Or Omega. I love those two, but if there's no justified reason for them to be there other than out of obligation, then I must draw a line in the sand for my work.

Scott Dreier as Knuckles | Thursday, 08.01.24

Between 2001 through 2004, Scott Dreier previously voiced Knuckles the Echidna in several Sonic the Hedgehog video games, including:

Sonic Adventure 2 (2001)

Sonic Battle (2004)

Sonic Heroes (2004)

Sonic Advance 3 (2004)

Did you know that?

[foursaints]

hello! i saw that your barty's knuckle tattoos spell anti n gone. i have to ask, are you referring to the daughter of oedipus, antigone or does it have some other meaning? also! if you are, may i ask why?

yeah i meant antigone! i see barty in her very much, at the very least as the patron saint of doomed characters. especially ones doomed by familial cycles… “we begin in the dark / and birth is the death of us” and all that.

considering crouch sr as the head of magical law enforcement & barty’s trial, i love the passage where antigone rails about the inadequacy of manmade justice and the chorus responds with “raw as her father isn’t she?”

At this point i am so sorry Ovid for all the hate you are better than the author that wrote Tele-GONE-ny :')

Like makes no sense for Odysseus story like it's not even canon. I believe he wrote it because of the success of Homer and wanted to make a known book based on something

Hmm this behaviour is oddly familiar with something recently we experience 👀

Honestly, it's not Ovid's fault in a way, just most peoples' taking his work as GREEK mythology instead of Roman. I don't think it's bad to enjoy the Roman Mythology version as long as people KNOW it's Roman and as long as they leave sweet boy Perseus alone.

Tele-GONE-y? That is just a titan of its own and it's so frustrating.

Because if you look it up? That's technically part of the Epic Cycle!

One of these is not like the others~

And it really sucks because we can't just say "It's Roman, therefore technically not Greek Mythology" like we can with Ovid! Why, out of all the myths for Odysseus and Penelope, would you choose this one? Why would you finish such a lovely story with such a trainwreck?

It literally goes against Tiresias' Prophecy! The myth of Odysseus being turned into a horse would've been a better one to go with if people didn't think "dying peacefully, surrounded by loved ones, after old age" isn't "exciting enough". At least then it's kind of cute to possibly imagine Horse!Odysseus being pampered by his family or something.

It is so dumb and just WRONG to say that the Odysseus and Penelope that are in the Tele-GONE-y are the same ones we know and love in Homer's masterpieces.

Even to lump the Tele-GONE-y with the rest is laughable. Even without considering the extreme out of character-ness of it, its plot is just messy and almost overly simple. As even with just FRAGMENTS of the other poems, we can take so much of what is implied and see the beautiful web that's being woven!!!

One of my favorite arcs, for example, is with Palamedes and his effects along the way. He places Odysseus' BABY in front of the plow and ofc, Odysseus saves his son. His sanity is proven and he has to go to war now, after having a prophecy of being the only survivor and not seeing his family again for 20 years.

Odysseus' rage is just boiling under the surface and he frames Palamedes for treason, causing him to be killed. THEN Palamedes' father, King Nauplius, hearing of his son's death plans to get revenge against all the kings. He goes to their wives telling them that their husbands plan to replace them.

Almost all of them take new lovers EXCEPT for Penelope. While we don't know the exact details, I believe it was likely that:

1.) "You're telling me, my husband, my Odysseus, is planning to replace me? That man is the biggest simp to ever simp, I've never heard such utter bullshit in my life. Get out of my house." 2.) When she realizes that he is Palamedes' FATHER? She's absolutely not believing one word that leaves his mouth. This is the father of the man who nearly got her baby killed and caused her husband to be taken away from her. She does not trust him.

(Silly side thing but Penelope's also probably making sure that Telemachus doesn't meet him lol "Remember that mean man who put you in front of the plow that I told you about? That's his dad. Don't talk to him. We don't know if 'Malice towards Telemachus' was inherited." 😂 )

It's so amazing and ironic that Nauplius got revenge against them all except for the man responsible!!! ALL BECAUSE PENELOPE IS THAT COOL AND SMART!

Granted, yes, he lied to Anticlea causing her heartbreak but still!

It's just such masterful and lovely storytelling!!! The rest of the Epic Cycle interweaves and connects lil stories into the big ones in such satisfying ways!!!

There is nothing like that in the Tele-GONE-y. No little seeds placed along the way to build upon. No "hey, this decision is actually monumental". Shit just happens.

It really does just feel like a young author being like "So, this is my new OC. His name is Telegonus and his dad is Odysseus! No, his mom isn't Penelope! And like, he has a special stingray spear and he kills his dad with it!"

I'm all for supporting and encouraging authors no matter how silly or cringy they get (I'm silly and cringy too!) but imagine from Homer's and the other authors of the Epic Cycle's perspective, that you write a book that you worked so hard on, only for people to take some FANFICTION as canon and therefore affecting how people see your work!

I got really rambly but I'm just genuinely mindboggled that people take the Tele-GONE-y as canon. It's not good. In general.

Another small thing but Homer usually tells us little details even when the characters don't know it. For example, with Helen not knowing her brothers are dead. (in Homer's works)

But I can’t see two of the men’s leaders,                                     Castor, tamer of horses, and Pollux, the fine boxer—they are both my brothers, whom my mother bore along with me. Either they did not come with the contingent from lovely Lacedaemon, or they sailed here in their seaworthy ships, but have no wish                                     to join men’s battles, fearing the disgrace, the many slurs, which are justly mine.” Helen spoke. But the life-nourishing earth already held her brothers in Lacedaemon,                             in their own dear native land.

(Book 3, Johnston)

Homer would have most likely said something in Book 12 of the Odyssey along the lines of "And so he left Aeaea for the final time, not knowing that he will have another son that grew up without his father." or something. HE DOESN'T SAY ANYTHING LIKE THAT. BECAUSE IT'S NOT CANON. It also never says that they slept together in Book 12. All she did was pull him away so that they could talk and she could warn him.

[carnation-damnation]

Ooooops, didn't post this haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Anti-Knux design! I named him Claws! Some info under the cut

Scourge was Claws's best friend. He was the first person Claws met outside of Angel Island, and after betraying Claws and misusing the Master Emerald, Claws put up impenetrable walls that he hides his feelings and motivation behind. Claws has a shattered sense of justice, becoming even more of a recluse than he was before and has sworn to Scourge that if he ever came back, it'd be the last thing he'd ever do.
