Redesigning the WEIRDEST Archie Sonic Comic Characters

[@ProjectSNT]

Thanks for watching! What other Archie Sonic characters would you like to see me redesign in the future?

[@MattyHarris]

Eel Capone and P. B. Jellyfish are those other Archie Sonic characters I would love to see you try and redesign in the future.

[@jeanstarwind1263]

Maybe Dulcy? I feel when she got an official redesign in the comics in fell off a little for me.

[@thedraftingax5963]

Definitely Eel Capone

[@vinconspicuousvicky2236]

Literally if you can redesign that one horse character from the iron dominion saga or whatever that was, I’d give you bajillion gazillion bucks. (Don’t know if it’s off limits because of he-who-must-not-be-named, but still. Tis all I can think of)

[@gpla-ster9032]

For me, maybe Elias Acorn, maybe the Downunda Freedom Fighters (Walt Wallaby, Guru Emu, Barby Koala, Wombat Stu, and Duck "Bill" Platypus), maybe Monkey Khan... Whatever seems fine. Your ideas of redesigns are way better than mine.

[@karenbonds264]

Betty was a real one, trying to protect us from the horrors of Sonic inflation.

[@green_demon1491]

Good job Betty

[@MagicalMario]

I get the feeling this is referencing a specific piece of fanart...

[@karenbonds264]

@@MagicalMario No, it was referencing the comic she first appeared in: *Archie Sonic Issue 9* . There she tried to guard you (Yes, you, the reader.) from looking at "Swollen Sonic". Which you could probably guess by the moniker, isn't good.

[@carpydiem]

The "nose part" of a parakeet/budgerigar is called a "cere", and it's actually a good indicator of the birds biological gender once fully matured! Budgies with a pink cere are female, blue is males, and if its purple or indiscriminate, then the bird is still growing.

[@xenolizardz]

Wait, I thought female budgies had brown ceres?

[@carpydiem]

@@xenolizardz they can, but it usually means that the bird is missing something in its diet

[@AztecCroc]

@@carpydiem Uh, from what I can find online brown ceres in female budgies indicate that they're ready to breed, not anything to do with dietary deficiencies.

[@EGGZZ402]

What if it stays purple? Is it non-binary then? Or an error?

@@EGGZZ402 Then it is immature.

[@realfromtherealreality4148]

The Archie comics had some of the weirdest sonic designs ever. But the sole fact that they made a f****** recolor of Sonic such a memorable villain/jackass (In both the worst and best ways possible) is enough for me to consider them worth existing. Scourge had no right being so entertaining, I even dare say well-written. (Especially in that scene where he tries to assassinate Chuck or that time he conquered the world twice.) (Also Charmy's backstory.)

[@whaleping]

@HypnoSpace Outlaw That definitely was implied to be a crime...

[@flippygirlproductions]

I have to agree, Scourge was a fantastic sonic villain and amazing character! He's one of my favorite sonic characters tbh, it's a shame that we'll probably not see him in any games or comics anytime soon (here's hoping that he will appear again in the future!)

[@montyeggman3075]

So...my thoughts on each of the redesigns: Betty the Butterfly: I like the idea of making her into a ballerina. Never would have thought of it myself. And she turned out well. Sharps the Parakeet: This one really resonated with me on a personal level, because the parakeet you chose as a reference was in the EXACT same colors as a parakeet I used to have. So yeah, I really liked that one. Sally Moon & Chibi Rose: The redesigns look a lot more like the perfect blend of Sonic and Sailor Moon. They look like they could fit in either universe. So as for other characters I would like to see get a redesign, I elect the entire group of the Forty Fathoms Freedom Fighters to make them look more Mobian (side note, they actually did do an official redesign for an aquatic creature named Akhult when they rebooted the series).

[@TheGreenBlur13]

The Forty Fathom Freedom Fighters would be awesome if they looked more like Mobians!

[@KEEPTALKIN8215]

I like how this channel started out and it had nothing to do with sonic ,but one video caused the sonic fandom to absorb you into itself.

[@ProjectSNT]

Actually this channel started with really crappy Sonic animations, but most of those are hidden.

@@ProjectSNT Could you draw Tangle & Whisper & other idw characters as Archie Sonic Characters

[@salm0n0]

The butterfly was so weird I’m interested to see what you’ll do with it edit: That interest paid off because it looks stunning, I had a feeling you would make her anthro (it's strange that she wasn't to begin with, even if Charmy hadn't been introduced yet) and while the ballerina aspect was a surprise, it's definitely a good one :)

[@mushroomfusion245]

Even if you don’t include the characters owned by ol’ Kenny, Archie still has a TON of characters to pull from for redesigns! Maybe you could even do some redesigns for Fleetway as well? Would love to see your take on Fleetway Super Sonic considering how much of an icon he’s become in the fanbase.

[@FabioliRavioli]

I think fleetway super sonic looks phenomenal already, both design and story

[@2devious724]

I LOVED your design for the butterfly. She looks like a classic Disney character, which is fitting because that was apparently what inspired Sonic in the first place!

[@piperchikita6425]

What inspired the making of Sonic was Mario bruh

[@AnonAmyTheSilly]

@@piperchikita6425 It's both, actually! Rubberhose cartoons like the ones Disney made inspired Sonic's design, and the way Mario dropped you off at World 1-1 every time you started it up meaning you'd play that level a *lot* inspired the level design!

[@gabeheartz13saravia97]

Plus there’s also Felix the cat

[@stardusted-petals]

The thumbnail made me REALLY curious as to how you would approach the butterly character - I love the colours and ballerina concept you chose for her! 🤩

[@b1oodymyth14]

I'm just curious, are you planning on making another SNT comic? If so, will you change her character arc up a little bit, or will you keep her the same?

[@AnEffingPinkCatThatBreathes]

[@lorelaimorace-kk1xz]

Reminds me of the "dumb kids THOSE ARE MY DUMB KIDS" scene from toh XD

[@Gaia_BentosZX5]

Gets even weirder in Fleetway's run. Archie wasn't even aware that Japan had to see mobian insects pretty early, since Charmy debuted in the manga first, much like Amy Rose. In fact, you are right on the nose now that you mention Classic cartoon characters and the animaniacs. His design was inspired by them!

[@Lady_in_Yearning]

Demake challenge! Take some of the new characters (Like Tangle, Whisper or even Infinite) and make them look like they were from the early Archie comics!

[@brunettebi4111]

Or even from the Classic games? I'm just saying that Classic Tangle would be adorable.

[@Lady_in_Yearning]

@@brunettebi4111 YES!

[@Nathanieltan100]

I honestly love the OC look of Sharps the Chicken. That OC looks pretty sick! I love the idea of making the OC by drawing a reference of original characters. It takes time to research before drawing the OC.

[@BlackoutCDYT]

tbh, i kinda wanna see a new version of Scourge. i know his design is already decent, but it could be better in many ways! like making him MORE emo than just the sunglasses and “leather” jacket

[@guythatdosethingssometimes2651]

I don't know, I think Scourge is mostly good as is and the only improvement I see is giving him some ripped jeans and maybe a chain or some other cute accessories. Also I'd say Scourge lies more on the punk/rock spectrum rather than emo.

[@BlackoutCDYT]

@@guythatdosethingssometimes2651 agreed

[@cailynchaos3326]

I don’t know a lot of Sonic comic characters but I’d love to see you redesign more of them.

[@MattyHarris]

It's lovely to see another redesigning video from you, it's been a while since the last one. Weird Archie characters this time, this is certainly interesting. I'm not too familar with the comics but I have seen some of the characters from that era before the reboot and yeah they're quite weird, which makes it exciting seeing your interperations on it and oh boy, they're amazing! Betty Butterfly, I love how you made her into a ballerina. She looks so pretty. Sharps the Parakeet, I like you have turned him into an actual parakeet which is very smart and the outfit design being based on a 2000s punk rock look is fitting to him too. Sally Moon and Chibi Rose are the weirdest of the bunch to me personally, but I adore the redesigns you have done for them! It looks so much better than the original in my opinion and I love how you've gave Sally an acorn motif and Amy a heart motif. Overall, another great bunch of redesigns. Personal favourite would have to be the Sally Moon and Chibi Rose's redesigns with Betty Butterfly being a close second. That doesn't mean Sharp's redesign is bad however, I still like his design you've done for him. He looks really cool. Great work, Courtney!

[@Cody_Wolf1]

Thank you for showing me the beauty that is Sally Moon and Tuxedo Knuckles- I don’t know why those two of all characters made me laugh the hardest in terms of absurdity but they did-

[@phia4497]

I love them all, but I am particularly in love with Betty Butterfly; insect Sonic characters are always so fun and she’s so pretty!! Anyway, I’m not familiar enough with Archie to give suggestions on that front, however I think it would be fun if you did redesigns of characters from Sonic the Comic!

[@axolotlfairy2473]

I LOVE your Sharps redesign, I'm a sucker for the early 2000s look and you pulled it off great. I'd honestly love to see you redesign the rest of Mina's band in that style, heck maybe even including a different take on a more punk Vector!

[@blackwolf249]

I would probably go with Rosy the Rascal. That westernized yandere REALLY needs a new design.

[@KrisSystemFailure]

Isn't Rosy the Rascal from Fleetway Comics? Courtney is doing Archie Comics, which are different from Fleetway (Tho I do wanna see some redesinged characters from Fleetway too lmao)

I like the little Jigglypuff hair swirl you gave the butterfly. A good reference to the curled proboscis of real butterflies. That Parakeet looks like he's got Emo nail polish. 😆 The sailors are blended really well. (Also Sonic's reaction to them in the comic. 👍👌)

[@willow9490]

8:19 for reference: On the left is the… sixth Sailor Senshi of the live action series, Sailor Luna. As in their incarnation of Luna, who was a sentient cat plushy, transformed into a human girl and somehow got a cell phone that allows her to transform (I am not making this up) And on the right is Sailor Iron Mouse, the first of Sailor Galaxia’s enforcers sent to seek out the Star Seeds of Sailor Guardians

Its weird that Sally Moon had an infinite motif in her wand...

[@Heroofashesnot]

Love these redesigns and your explanations of your thought process behind them! By the way, the symbol on Sally Moon’s scepter is likely a mobius strip which is where the planet Mobius gets its name!

@@tkfarms7882 I honestly hope so, I kinda have a theory on all those "Spinoff Continuities".

Another one that might be interesting is a redesign of Eggman's older brother… I think his name was Colin Kintobor? His design was always weird because he looked nothing like his brother, or his son, so it'd be interesting to see a redesign that made him fit better.

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but would Chibi Rose be the Daughter of Sally Moon and Tuxedo Knuckles? In the original anime/manga, Chibi Usa was the future Daughter of Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask, even having her own villain form as the "Black Lady". If that's the case, then how did a Squirrel/Chipmunk and an Echidna produce a Hedgehog? Maybe the comics just made the "zone" look that way - without any blood relations - but, it still makes a person wonder, don't you think? Honestly though, it would be amazing to see Amy as the "Black Rose". :3 Have a good Day/Night! :3 P.S I wrote this at - almost - three in the morning, after I had watched this video. 😂😅

"Parakeet" just means a small species of parrot, like a "Lorikeet" means a small species of Lorie (another type of parrot). I get Americans tend to call Budgerigars 'parakeets', and they arent WRONG - a budgie IS a 'parakeet' - its just is super weird, lol. A very non-specific name for a very specific type of bird. Like if Americans just decided to specifially call pomeranian's "small dogs"... while still keeping "small dog" as a descriptive for chihuahuas and stuff. The nose part is technically called a 'cere' - but its like... just its nostrils. Calling it a nose is fine :)
