The IDW Sonic comics have done a great job portraying the struggles of humanity and incorporating them into their stories. One of the most fascinating tales of struggle and redemption is that of Belle the Tinkerer. With the tragic loss of her father, the evolution and journey of this character is one that is sure to captivate you.

Belle is like a D&D NPC who was supposed to only be around for a one-off quest, only to stick around in the campaign longer than anyone planned, even the DM, and the DM isn't sure what to do with her but is doing their best to tell her story in the middle of the greater story. Honestly, Belle's story and character progression aren't so bad when they're told in one sitting instead of stretched out over several issues.

@@lpsamyrose one of Ian Flynn's write-ups about the game years ago when people IMMEDIATELY asked for Sage to be put into the comic. Apparently Frontiers is meant to be like, the last game in the timeline period with the plot exploring the idea of the characters getting older and even growing apart and having their own adventures like how Amy basically says that after the game is over and they get back she's leaving to go find herself. They even have sonic finally admit his feelings for her to himself but point out that it's "too late now" like it's a forgone conclusion that they probably won't see each other again.

⁠@@jojounicorn4610Stereotyped how? There were writing restrictions on him for an extremely long time (I had no idea there was such. Pretty stupid hindsight) And honestly, I thought how they wrote him was pretty on key. The dude’s suffered a ton. It makes sense he was willing to be ‘the person’ who killed Eggman if the others couldn’t, because he doesn’t want them to suffer the same fate he did (as he spared the humans who attacked Space Colony Ark, choosing instead to run away with Maria as scared children) Then in the Metal Virus arc, he was suffering from massive guilt of not ignoring the others and just killing Eggman (when really, he should have felt guilty that he just walked off and didn’t stick around to guard ‘Mr.Tinker’ while there was an impersonator around.) and kept going non-stop with no sleep. That’s why he was so ‘edgy’ there. Top that, when Rouge yelled ‘Run’, he had a PTSD episode, remember how he ran with Maria but it got her killed. That’s why he tripled down instead of running off the virus. Beyond that, when I last saw him in IDW (during that ski resort arc) it seemed more like he just didn’t know how to interact with everyone, which makes sense since he grew up in an isolated space station, and everyone gets pretty snarky with him (they’re just trying to joke around, but makes sense how that’s off putting to someone who never experienced that before) Come ‘The Murder of Sonic The Hedgehog’, it seems like he’s starting to take steps to reach out and make connections, given he actually went to Amy’s birthday to participate in the game, and he took drastic steps to get her a gift she’d like (when he realized everyone else got her something) because it mattered to him to make her happy. And finally the biggest step of them all (because Amy insisted) he’s going to go to the concert with her some time after the game’s events. His standoffish nature makes sense when you take things into account. It makes sense he’s nervous about the idea of being rejected by the group, after what he initially did and with how he grew up with only a few people and only knew the same people every day. Of course he’s not going to be a social butterfly, but he IS actually trying now. He’s making steps, and I think storytelling with him will get better now :)

Belle is one of those characters that really shows that even if your creator is a monster who's name sends chills down everyone's spine, their legacy isn't your own. Likewise, Belle turned her tragedy into a drive to help other robots or people to be the best they can be, which very few can say they did. Sure, she was born from a falsehood and potential what if...but it doesn't change the fact she is a real being. A being that wants something everyone who is anyone desires as some point: a sense of belonging; purpose at most.

Belle, metal sonic and sage are the 3 eggman creations who exceed their original purpose. A puppet, a robot, A code. One wants the past, one wants respect, one purpose. In a way they are like parts of eggman's good side calling for help. Eggman wants respect and purpose but had them in the past. Like his 3 creations, he too is trapped in a way he cannot escape. It's just a theory but it makes you think. We never really knew why eggman is evil, he just chose it. A choice he could easily do for good.

He feels the world disrespected the Robotnik lineage's intelligence; now he's dead set convinced that murdering people and carving up nature as he sees fit will prove he's a genius. In the end, though, it only proves he's a ridiculous manchild who has missed out on ten years of fundamental hickory switch spanking.

@@prufan English version only; the original Japanese had him with a more neutral attitude toward Sage. Besides, Ian Flynn stated that his writing for the English version wasn't meant to redeem Eggman. Coming from him, it makes sense; he LOVES to write Eggman as a total monster. Also, the whole notion that IDW is set in the canon of the games is pretty sketchy. I usually roll with the word of the creators, but I have my limits. Between Eggman's vileness and the self-righteous stupidity Sonic showed for most of the comic so far, they both just seemed like radical departures from their game selves. I mean, Eggman straight up tried to render the world uninhabitable, TWICE! Meanwhile, from Issues 6-55; Sonic gave autonomy back to a soulless killing machine, gaslit his friends, ignored their legit concerns, let Eggman off the hook for the Metal Virus, Went hypocrite on his preached ideals TWICE, and practically admitted to treason against his entire planet! I'm glad that phase is over. Anyway, I personally don't think these comics being in the same linear continuity as the games gonna work in the end. Sega & Ian have had to pull back on a lot: two worlds, Mania being in an alternate past, what exactly caused Eggman's evil personality to resurface from Mr. Tinker, etc. In the end, it just feels like they're gonna have to pull back on the games and comics sharing a continuity as well.

Thank you so much for this breakdown of Belle's character in the story IDW is telling, I think you laid out her journey and struggles marvelously. As someone who's been a Sonic fan since game 1, it's thrilling to see such stories being told in this world with such robust and, if I may be personal, resonant characters. I won't lie, Tails was since 1992 the character in the canon that I related to the most, as the younger sibling, "Player 2", sympathetic engineer seeing the humanity in the machine, but in Belle I have actually come to find an even more compelling character *as* the machine sympathizing with herself. As you said, her healing must come from within, and that's a hard journey and one I can really relate to. Belle has rapidly become my favorite character in the franchise, and that's no small feat given how much Tails has meant to me as a character over the years! I have to give kudos to the writers working for IDW with their treatment of Belle, along with so many other characters I believe they're handling very well. Tangle and Whisper, to name a few more. I hope we see more of Belle's journey going forward, she's such a fascinating actor in the universe of Sonic!

The Fact that the whole Starfall Islands Experience where Sage first encountered the Core 4 (*Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy*) Has left both Herself & Sonic on good terms..... & I have a feeling that down deep, in spite of what Eggman wants them to be, both Sage & Sonic KNOW that they are NOT Enemies..... & if Belle were to find out about the whole thing it would break Her. ....Oh, Ian Flynn..... I Hope You know what You are doing when it comes to the direction You are taking when Writing Your Sonic Stories for both Sega & IDW........ O_o

@@prufan Sage is a prierly a logical being when she sees that working with Sonic increases the chances of success to her objectives she will work with him however she is ultimatly loyal to Eggman and does not work with Sonic until given permision. So while they may respect each other Sonic and Sage are still enemies. Remeber in Frontiers even Eggmen admits to Sage that while he might Hate Sonic he also respects him as an adversery.

Its sad to see the differenced between eggmans treatment to belle and sage. Tho imo, i feel as if most of the og comic characters are starting to become stale now that their arcs ended. Whisper and tangle had their arc, to the point where whisper forgot her whole char development only to repeat the same mistake (pushed her friends aside to protect them, but then realize that its better to be helped by them than to protect them by pushing them away). And tho i like tangles character, being the energetic happy go luck one, i feel as if they "dropped" their characters and made them into a cry baby that needs confort every time someone says "diamond cutters" or "mimic", and the other is there just to confort her. Lanolin is ok, we havent seen much of her now that she got out of the background, but the little we saw already made people hate her, imo, i feel as if she should have stayed as a background character. And belle feels as if she had soooo much potential, both as a friend, a potential villain or a 3rd party that isnt protag or antag to the heroes. Im waiting to see what they will do with surge and kit, really hoping they dont drop the ball. I feel as if im forgetting a bad duo, oh well, if i forgot it probably means they werent important.

It'll be interesting if/whenever Sage and/or Nicole get added to the IDW universe. Sage so that we can see what Belle thinks of her like assuming Robotnik made her to replace Belle, not knowing the events of Frontiers. Nicole since she too is an A.I. like Sage and would be fun if they were Pen Pals before realizing which groups they are apart of.

Right now, I only wonder what would happen if Belle met Sage. She is the AI daughter of EGGMAN (since Sonic Frontiers) and the same game has canonically said that Sticks exists in the game reality during the credits. They only exist in Sonic mobile apps, but I’d like to see the comic characters become game canon. The comics have proved they follow Forces’ plot.

It is said that the cheering someone else up is the best way to do so to yourself. Belle's story is one of the most fascinating and powerful next to X-9 from Samurai Jack. I was not sure what creature Belle was supposed to be based on, she looks human but her build reminds me of Sticks, so I imagine she was some red-haired badger. Her attire kind of reminds me of Lil and Phil from Rugrats (minus the diaper). In future Belle will probably have to deal with the issue of outliving her friends due to being robot.

Yes, after _considerable_ time, you can put the pieces back, but you'll always see the cracks and the altered view when looking through it. Kinda makes me think of the glass you see at church in a way, but in this case, it says and shows a different story: "Even if you 'fix' yourself, you'll always be a little bit broken; the scars, the 'cracks in the glass', will always show your struggles- but in a way, seeing that, seeing that you survived such hardship and move forward, being able to smile despite everything- makes the beauty and color of the soul shine that much brighter."

Id like to see Eggman eventually mellow out and just give up on trying to take over the world and strive to be a better person like his persona. Then let someone like Starline take over as the main villian. I know many are so used to him being the main villian and I am speaking heracy in terms of sonic fandom but he's lost his luster for me. He's rarely menacing anymore and comes off more like a comic relief goofy villian (a little less so in the comics I will say) than one to be taken seriously. Not to mention he feels played out as they seem to always have him have something go TOO well then has to team up with sonic to clean up the mess he made then rinse and repeat for next story arc / game. Then we can see him try to mend things with Belle or other characters. Maybe he butts heads with the others of how a better world should look like. There is a lot more that can be explored there than re-treading the same old same old.

I love Eggman as a villain but I agree that Sega needs to allow another villain to come to the forefront to keep things fresh. Maybe have subtle hints and foreshadowing about some crazy plan Eggman is working on but leave him out of the next few titles. Then his return would really be felt and mean a lot more imo
