Archie's Sonic The Hedgehog: GENESIS

Project Overview

From the director of Mega Man Zero: The Definitive Dub...


EDIT: Reminder to all auditioners, your audition WILL be rejected if you haven't had any experience and don't have access to a professional-quality microphone. This is not your typical crappy Sonic fan project done for fun and nothing else. I am aiming for actual quality here.






A motion comic version of the graphic novel Sonic The Hedgehog: GENESIS, produced by Archie Comics. Complete with authentic sound-effects and music for a cinematic style! All to celebrate Sonic's 25th Anniversary this year. This covers issues #225-230 of the main series.


I also need a talented video editor to make this project work. If I can't get one, I'll only release it as audio. If you'd like to apply for that, please contact me!


Not a CCC member? No problem. Send your auditions to [redacted]






Please have a clear mic. Knowledge of the series is not necessary, however it would definitely help if you got an idea of the characters first. Lines will cover any and all dialogue as well as grunts for actions. Please note that if you are cast, you will NOT be provided with comic scans OR scripts. You must obtain your own copies of the book/issues, and I am not responsible for how exactly you do so.

Princess Sally Acorn
open
Unpaid

If you're going to impersonate an official actress, go for Kath Soucie in Sonic SatAM.

Sonic's girlfriend until issue #252, where they are simply close friends. Sally is often logical and focused with a playful side. She prefers to plan ahead in almost all situations. She often takes the role of a leader, not only in directing and organizing people en masse but also through mediation and offering suggestions or compromises to difficult situations. Her attitude towards her title of princess is one of duty; she loves her people and strives to do the best she can for them. In this she shows passion, bravery and determination, often remaining undeterred by setbacks. While inwardly compassionate, she can often come off as hard and sardonic.

Her personal emotions are sometimes less well-controlled, and under some extreme situations she's fallen into turmoil concerning her relationships with others, especially with her father, King Acorn, and Sonic. She cares deeply for her family and was quick to establish connections with her long-lost mother and brother, though her love for her father is sometimes strained as his past, actions and decisions often cause friction with her ideals. In some cases she fostered some feelings of betrayal and jealousy, though she usually recognizes it while she's doing it. As such, she often confides in NICOLE. Should she think herself to have failed or misjudged a situation in the past, she will often have tremendous self-doubts in herself, sometimes coming to tears in frustration of her perceived inability. Sally is a bit of a tomboy, not hesitating to get into rough or messy situations if needed.

  • (determined) C'mon guys! That little detour set us back a bit. Let's take the fight to Eggman--for Antoine!

  • (a bit stressed) You're right! I should've tried harder to reason with him. Something tells me he should be here with me! (embarrassed) US! Be here with us!

  • (heartfelt) Nicole...I've been given a second chance. I can save everyone with that. Please...I can't do this without you.

Do your own interpretation. Don't try to sound like she does in the Sonic SatAM series, as she is NOT supposed to speak like a robot. She is more articulate than that and knows emotions, even if she often speaks in a verbose and/or logical manner.

Artificial intelligence in charge of New Mobotropolis. Later creates her own Mobian form as a Lynx. NICOLE possesses many of the traits of a living being, and is fully regarded as such by her friends. She is able to express concern for others, and is not without the ability to mock or express defiance. However, she is at times out of touch with this part of herself, reverting to the more logical thought processes of a machine. Originally this sort of behavior was all NICOLE was capable of, with logic being the only motivation behind any decision. Despite this, she is capable of appreciating beauty and of helping others in times of difficulty.

  • (worried) No. I am locked out, and it is ready to fire. I could potentially INVERT the beam, to THIS EXACT POINT, but... But you will not be immune...

  • (anger) It's NOT yours! And you're not welcome here! Now...GET. OUT!

  • (optimistic) I think that today, I'd like to feel the wind on my face.

Rotor the Walrus

Role assigned to: mattdanger2899

Do your own interpretation. Don't try to sound like he does in the Sonic SatAM series, as he's older in the comics.

Chief inventor of the Freedom Fighters. Rotor is usually a very calm and easygoing individual, rarely showing aggression. However, he despises Dr. Robotnik and anyone who follows the latter's beliefs. He is very defensive of his family and friends, and will help them in any way possible. During Sonic's time in space, Rotor became vehemently opposed to the use of firearms due to accidents caused by weapons he had designed to help fight Dr. Robotnik in Sonic's absence.

  • (excited, geeking out) OH, MAN! You've got an F1 with a 9B nine-cylinder rotary engine! Waitaminute! You added a high-bypass turbofan engine?! And you're HOW old?!

  • (panicked) I'll go on an everything diet! Just don't drop me!

Will need a female to do this one. If you're going to impersonate an official actress, go for Colleen O'Shaughnessey in Sonic Boom. Keep in mind that this version of Tails shows much more emotion than you may be used to in the games.

Sonic's best friend and sidekick. Should need no introduction. Tails is a good-natured, intelligent youth who is fiercely loyal to Sonic and his other friends. Though he is at times intimidated by the obstacles he faces as a hero, he continues to press forward with Sonic as his inspiration. Despite having been involved in conflict for some years, he retains a childlike positivity and fun-loving demeanor, though he's not without a certain amount of pride.

  • (over radio) Sonic? Can you hear me? This is Tails! Everything's quiet over Metropolis Zone. How are you doing?

  • (a bit panicked) Mega Muck! A viscous polymer with toxic properties! (Sonic says "Meaning?") We're going to drown in poison soup!

  • (excited) Are you going on another adventure, Sonic? Can I come too?

Role assigned to: hibikikuraii


Speak with an almost stereotypical French accent. If you're going to impersonate an official actor, go for Rob Paulsen in Sonic SatAM.

Cowardly, easily spooked member of the Freedom Fighters. Antoine is a dutiful soldier and valiant fighter, something he has achieved despite youthful fears largely through Bunnie's example and help. While he still has the tendency to be anxious about things, he is quick to put it aside when needed. Antoine has envied Sonic's superior abilities over the years, and puts on bravado not unlike the Hedgehog's in battle while enjoying any opportunity to be amused as Sonic's expense. 

Speaking both French and English, he struggles occasionally with the latter, particularly during intense situations, and will sometimes use an incorrect word. Apart from his wife Bunnie and his efforts to defeat the evils that threaten Mobius, Antoine's greatest passion seems to be cooking.

  • (nervous) Must we be ze leaping wizout ze looking? Last time moi was nearly drown-ed.

  • (furious) Non! I am NOT ze okay! I wash around in ze dark for hours! I am dizzy and soggy and frightened and...(face to face with Eggman) ...Bonjour. (frightened) EEEEK!

  • (nauseous) First ze smell of zis place *urp* and then ze tremors...

If you're going to impersonate an official actor, go for Mike Pollock in Sonic Boom. Keep in mind that this version of Eggman is much more sinister than in the games, though he still has his funny moments.

Sonic's arch-nemesis. Should need no introduction. Eggman is the ruthless and megalomaniacal ruler of the Eggman Empire. He is a power-hungry tyrant who believes that his superior intellect makes him the rightful ruler of the world, a view which makes him incredibly arrogant and gives him a psychotic sense of self-entitlement that urges him to not just rule over the planet, but over the entire universe as well. Eggman is a strict man of science and technology, and has little care for the environment, magic, plant life or other living creatures, preferring to have his territories be completely dominated by factories and machinery with no sign of natural elements. His ultimate goal is to turn the world into his ideal robotic empire which he has dubbed "Eggmanland" and is determined to cause as much chaos and destruction to achieve this goal.

He is a manipulative individual who will do whatever it takes to further his plans and will gladly take control over the minds of Mobians, Humans or even divine beings against their will all for the sake of achieving his goals without caring about the harm he does to them or the world. His uncaring personality is mostly due to his over-inflated ego, as he only views himself and his machinery with utmost pride; the only other individual Eggman has ever admired is his grandfather Gerald Robotnik, whose life would play a major role in influencing Eggman's views. Eggman has no problem boasting about his superior intellect and mastery of science, often making long-winded proclamations about his superiority and looking down on anyone who would disagree. While Eggman's overly prideful views are the core parts of his personality, they are also his greatest weakness, as they cause him to become far too overconfident and arrogant when facing those who challenge his attempts at world domination and it usually leads to his downfall.

Eggman's psychotic mentality makes him a very dangerous man, but it also seems to make him somewhat eccentric and he often acts like an immature and short-tempered blowhard, especially when things don't go his way. Nonetheless, he is still a cruel and conniving individual under the right circumstances, and when he has complete control over the situation, and his plans go accordingly he prefers to toy with his enemies rather than finish them off from the start, but this arrogance as mentioned before is what usually leads to his own downfall. Eggman has a peculiar fascination with the word "Egg", having given himself the name "Eggman" and giving many of his creations egg-themed names and appearances, such as the Egg Fleet, the Egg Pawns, the Death Egg and the Egg Mobile.

  • (enraged, fighting) But here you are--again. Trying to foil my plans--AGAIN. Getting in the way at the last possible instant--AGAIN! THIS TIME I WIN!

  • (a bit confused) It was brilliant! We did that...thing...to the planet! You know...that thing...it primed Mobius for...PHASE TWO. Bah! It doesn't matter whether you remember it or not!

  • (drawn out, uncontrollable evil laughter)

If you're going to impersonate an official actor, go for Ryan Drummond in Sonic Heroes. Keep in mind that this version of Sonic shows much more emotion than you may be used to in the games. 


The blue blur himself. Should need no introduction. Sonic is an extremely confident individual who lives for adventure and going as fast as he can. He's a born risk-taker, and not always in favor of following the rules. Be that as it may, he has a firm conviction of justice and a desire to see Dr. Eggman and all others like him stopped. If Sonic has a flaw besides recklessness and a certain disregard for authority, it's that he tends to take too much upon himself-not unlike his friend Mighty. He also enjoys somewhat antagonistic friendships with both Knuckles the Echidna and Antoine D'Coolette.

  • (cocky) Now to handle the Doc while everyone else is at a safe distance! Ready or not, Eggman! Here I come!

  • (determined) I'm out of time and out of options. So...Here goes. CHAOS CONTROL!

  • (bragging) ...And then I'm going to eat a million chili dogs, and then... (horrified, possibly shaking) Oh, no. Oh, no, no, no, NO!

Snively Robotnik

cast offsite

If you're going to impersonate an official actor, go for Charlie Adler in Sonic SatAM.

Dr. Robotnik's evil nephew and lackey.Quite possibly the best way to describe Snively is "devious". He is bitter, passive-aggressive, and self-serving (even when serving others). He has a deeply rooted resentment for those around him, and for many years only trusted his uncle, Julian. Since the coup, however, he has since closed himself off to anyone and anything other than his own personal gain. Snively spends a large portion of his time swallowing his pride in the face of humiliation and repressing the rage instilled in him. This leads him to occasionally snap in the form of physical tantrums or infuriated screaming (usually the phrase "I HATE YOU!"). These outbursts are rare, however, as muttering his grievances below his breath is much safer.

During the times Snively is actually given an inch of independence, he tends to be very cold and calculating, and in the even rarer instances that he has power, he can be downright sadistic. He takes great pleasure in the pain and misfortune of those around him especially those that are particularly hated, such as Dr. Robotnik/Dr. Eggman or Sonic The Hedgehog. Even when forming what appears to be an alliance, Snively never fully puts trust in anyone, and in fact is usually plotting a back-up betrayal plan in the back of his mind.

However, it would appear that Snively is not completely heartless, and appears to care for his half-sister Hope to some extent; during the destruction of Knothole, Snively persuaded Hope to escape to Station Square prior to the attack, and was reduced to tears when Hope expressed her shame towards him and her intent to redeem their family name.

  • (villainous) I am Snively, lowly servant to a grander design. The designs of my brilliant uncle, Dr. Eggman!

  • (panicked) Doctor Eggman? Uncle? Sir? W-We have a problem... (controls explode) EEK! Do you hear me?! The world is tearing itself apart, and we can't stop it...!

  • (panicked) I-I-I don't know, sir! I'm not reading any problems! It's just...(weakly) not working?
