Commentary for May 19, 2020:
So in yesterday’s commentary, I said I’d talk about Auto Automatons
in greater detail later. Well, it’s later. Auto Automatons (i.e.
lifelike robot copies of real people) were a thing that appeared a
handful of times in Archie Sonic, first and most notably in
the Princess Sally miniseries. Using them in this story is basically
a homage to the Archie series. (I may not need to say any more than
that, really, come to think of it. We’ll see.)
But, as I was writing this first scene, I was hit with a moment of
inspiration and remembered an episode from SatAM’s first season,
‘Sonic and Sally’, in which Doctor Robotnik created a robot copy of
Sally to infiltrate the Freedom Fighters. Rotor and Tekno’s exchange
in panel 1 is basically adapted from similar lines from that very
episode as a bit of a homage to that, too. Heck, even the line
“enough memory to duplicate Mobian complexity” is a reference to
that episode. It’s a good episode.
Oh yes, I also didn’t originally plan to include either Rotor or
Nicole in this chapter, but I figured Tekno would want to confer
with a fellow engineer about Auto Vanilla, and from there, having
Nicole run an analysis of the robot just made sense. And so did Amy
being there to give Cream some emotional support.
