Shopping for SOUR Cream?! | BumbleKast for July 31st, 2024 - Ian Flynn Q&A Podcast

[@J.R.Unbound]

July 31st, 2024 Question Timestamps: ------------------------------------------ 3:15 - I’m aware that I am bringing up something uncomfortable, and I apologize for any awkwardness this may cause. How do you think it would have played out during the first few years of Archie if Geoffrey viewed Sally as more of a little sister? Please, I just want to be able to appreciate the tragic antivillain storyline in the 2010s without feeling gross. 6:21 - Good news! The powers that be greenlight two animated specials, Worlds Collide and Worlds Unite! However, they want all universes included to be of their current game variants. How would you rewrite any non game-only elements? [...] 9:32 - What do you think a Defunctland documentary on one of Eggman’s theme parks would look like? 11:26 - At the time of this post, IDW published an unfinished cover featuring a Naruto X TMNT crossover, being published by IDW. Regardless of its validity, it naturally got people talking about a certain blue blur crossing over with certain Shueisha properties, i.e. DBZ, One Piece, MHA etc. All possible crossovers, but what property from Shueisha could make the most sense with Sonic in terms of connection, such as the ninja aspect from both TMNT and Naruto as an example? 13:45 - Hey, Ian and Kyle. I just wanna ask you something. Which one of the Sonic cast is secretly a brony and why is it Shadow? 14:22 - In the anime Expo pannel for Sonic x Shadow generations it is revealed that Shadow was based on Spawn. Now I think you don't know anything about Spawn, so I have to ask how Shadow would get along with other anti-heroes like Punisher, Venom, and Jason Todd Red Hood? 16:55 - Lanolin gets promoted to Green Hill Safety Patrol, which comes with a raise, benefits, and a shiny badge. However, now she has to tell Shadow that he can’t have a gun without a permit, and she has to confiscate his gun until he completes the process. What happens next? 17:47 - Infinite has reappeared, and needs to lay low from The Resistance and Eggman. Luckily, he's found an "unwitting pawn" who agrees to offer him a hideout. And it's none other than Big the Cat! How do these two interact, and how well does Infinite hide his identity from Big? 20:05 - Here’s another fusion scenario: Amy and Mighty. Same questions from before: What’s their name/identity, their personality, and how much of a threat do they become? 21:21 - Sonic is having a crossover with a fighting game franchise of your choice! The twist? The entire cast of your chosen franchise will be transformed into nermies (to make the game work, of course!). What are you both choosing? 24:16 - During the Silver Age miniseries, Evan Stanley said she wasn't allowed to use Onyx Island from SR1 since SEGA "no longer considered Sonic Rivals to be canon". You said SEGA flagged you for trying to use Metal Sonic's Copycat ability from SR1, but you ALSO said the Ifrit from SR2 is technically allowed to come back, meaning SEGA still treats SR2 as canon. Given that SR1 is the first time Silver reunites with Sonic after 06, my question is this: Why is SR1 not considered canon while SR2 is? 25:03 - Doesn't Bean have the power to make bombs explode with a snap of his fingers? What if he makes Bomberman's bomb explode before he can throw it? *(This exact question was also asked on the June 5th, 2024 episode at **26:46**)* 25:51 - I had a thought about power scaling, what units work best for characters of your choice? Example, is Sonic best measured in horsepower or watts? 26:30 - Scourge’s World (Post-SGW) #1: Considering there are infinite parallel realities of any possible universe, it shouldn't be surprising that there would be a hypothetical version of Moebius that survived the SGW. A Green Hedgehog & his Two-Tailed Fox lackey wake up on the infamous "Eastside Island." What would this new rebooted reality be like as an antithesis of the Post-SGW Sonic Universe and how would Scourge and Miles react to the new world? 29:10 - It's time for another Sonic Boom plot. This time, with a guest... And it is none other than Segata Sanshiro. Nope. It's not a fraud parody faker. It's the real deal. How does it go? 30:53 - Muttski decides it’s time for a sidekick of his own! And he lays trust in one very good boy, Ozzie the golden retriever! What silly adventures do they get up to, and who gets most distracted by a random ball? 31:55 - After watching enough soap operas, Shadow decides to become “the ultimate house husband” In the different multiverses where this plays out, how does his dynamics play out with Infinite, Lanolin, Tangle, Silver, and Espio? 33:50 - Is everything on Bumblekast canon to Sega? This question is surely in everyone's mind, right? 35:05 - Do you do any kind of warm-ups or pre-writing "rituals" to get in the head space to start writing? Question doesn't have to be about Sonic. 36:35 - A few months ago you said that Cosmo’s favorite anime would be “Revolutionary Girl Utena” and I thought that was a perfect choice for her for so many different reasons! From this I’m assuming that you’ve seen the show and it also happens to be one of my all time favorite anime. So here’s your free pass to talk about Utena and your thoughts on it for as long as you’d like! If I’m mistaken, please talk about another 90’s anime you like. 41:13 - Blaze the Cat and Hornet (from Hollow Knight) switch universes. Blaze has to go on an adventure in Hallownest with the Knight, and Hornet has to go on an adventure with Silver. How does it go? 42:46 - I know Kirby has moves in his games that originate from Smash, the games acknowledge this. During the game informer's interview Miyamoto agreed to Mario being called an Olympian. Does Miyamoto agree with Smash, The Olympics and Minecraft Mario pack as canon officially? 43:46 - What shenanigans would occur if sonic developed an equally intense hatred of surge as she has for him, but for both it was now the objectively healthier “I will be better than you at everything and laugh at your suffering", kinda hatred, as opposed to the Omnicidal rage surge has? 44:55 - In the Flash Season 3, the villain Savitar is shown to be (spoilers) a future version of the Flash, and throughout the whole season before the reveal he constantly taunted everyone by saying "I am the future, Flash," without anyone realizing he meant it literally. Now I ask, in the Sonic universe, how would you make a character similar to Savitar? Would some guy just show up and start saying, "I am the future, Silver"? (If you have not seen the reveal, I suggest you look it up really fast, because it was actually really well done) 47:31 - I was rewatching SonicX the other day when I realized that the Thorndykes only have two people working on their huge property, don't you think it's strange that Ella and Tanaka are the only ones maintaining that huge place? I mean, the two of them do all the cleaning, the laundry, they clean the pools, they cut the grass and the bushes, they cook the food, they take care of Chris and his grandfather... imagine the amount of time it would take you just to clean the floors of that mansion, that's too much. 49:19 - It's time for team building chaos, as Tangle & Vector have challenged each other and their teams to a bowling competition! Chaotix VS The Diamond Cutters! They did not run this by their teams beforehand. How do they get their friends on board, and what shenanigans occur? 52:17 - Dr. Starline is brought into the game canon under one condition: knowing nobody else would be accepted by the fans, you Mr. Flynn are to be his English voice actor, and this must take priority over all other work. New game, Twitter takeover, future animated series, talking plush, you must drop everything to do that voice line. Do you accept the responsibility? *(I **_need_** to know what Ian Flynn as Mowgli sounds like)* 55:10 - With his inclusion in Sonic x Shadow Generations, can we get a big push for Terios in the comics as his own character? 56:13 - Vanilla becomes the president. Cream gets kidnapped and Vector gets the call to rescue her. When he gets on location however, he sees zombie-like humans in an old Spanish village. How well would Vector do in Resident Evil 4? 58:19 - How would the Sonic cast react to finding out about Shadow's hooves? Specifically Sonic, Amy, and Rouge, but feel free to include any other funny ones you can think of. 1:00:32 - What was Vanilla doing during Dream Team? 1:01:22 - If you were to include a fourth character "type" beyond Speed, Flight, and Power that would encompass Amy's moveset-- I think super jump, melee attack, ranged attack and stealth-- what would you call this type? What characters do you think would fit this new type? Espio, Cream, Sticks, Fang and either Silver or Blaze seem like possibilities. But who would you cast as the fourth member of Team Dark, Team Chaotix, Babylon Rogues and whatever Blaze & Silver's team is so we can have teams of 4 rather than 3? 1:06:58 - Hey guys! Have either of you read the Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess manga? If so, what do you think? If not, PLEASE DO IT! The writing of this manga gripped me in a way I can't even explain. 1:07:36 - Let's say over the long years Shadow mellows, taking comfort in befriending a different version of Silver coming back every year. - How does he react to Silver dying of natural causes in 280 years? 1:08:39 - The working title for Ristar was called "Dexstar", ‘cause he's a very dexterous star. The name was perfect, why didn't SEGA stick with it? ------------------------------------------ 1:10:22 - Outtake 1 1:10:36 - Outtake 2 1:10:47 - Outtake 3 1:11:54 - Outtake 4 *(You already knew what Vanilla was doing.)*

[@skistorm739]

I wonder if ancient created relics seen in the games who knows

[@ThunderDragonBravelion]

New hedgehog character to be inspired by The Flash and Billy Batsoj/Shazam from the DC Comics.

[@luscario]

Kyle couldn't hold it!

[@andtails]

LOL, I almost lost it with that "What was Vanilla doing during Dream Team?" question. --- Steamed Hams references this episode: 0 Total since count began: 17 Total references to counter: 3

[@naschaos25jxf57]

what was the livestream reply?

[@darknessrising2453]

20:16 Sonic: “Who’s your new friend?” Amighty: “She’s an otter… with a dark side~”

[@ThatSoni]

For Infinite finding inner peace when he’s fishing with Big, we ride on the Algorithm Quest!

[@AusJammin]

I’m proud my question was worthy to be blooper material :)

[@NightFuryLover31]

“Maybe we finally get our Starline figure, and it comes with a rock!” 🤣🤣🤣 The team of Blaze, Silver, Marine, and Gardon is perfectly timed for the Amy Fortune Cards reveal!

[@TheLanydx]

Team Dark meets Shadow’s old drill instructor Brock Sampson. Does he approve of his little cadet’s progress or does Shadow need another haunting, traumatizing refresher course that will leave him in a cold sweat for another 50 years?

[@somegoodsoup7008]

20:13 "Amy plus Mighty you get 'Amity" Me a TOH Fan:(*Ultra Instinct Theme Starts Playing) Her hair color is Lavender, the color that Shadow smells like. And you see its Lavender because...(*Starts to go on a rant about the significance and symbolism about Amity's Lavender hair)...and that's why Lumity is the greatest ship to ever be created in the history of forever.

[@wolfgangwilcox2323]

52:09 That’s my question! Thank you to Scruvypiratehog for sponsoring me!

[@GrimDrago]

25:10 hearing that answer made be think of Deidara from Naruto (which is kinda funny considering the Sonic's English va is the same actor)

[@violetthebookcat7457]

Woooo! Just in time for another episode of the BumbleKast!!

[@Diamonddeath]

I would think a good fourth team type would be ranged-type and have Amy use her fortune cards, but the power-types already threw their teammates for ranged attacks.

[@mr.incredivenom]

Funny thumbnail. As for shadow, i kinda would see him get along with venom, because they rejected black doom and knull in conquering earth.

[@Krissylis]

WOOOO AN HOUR LONG EPISODE YAAAAAAAY. Always love to see it✨✨

[@JomaXZ]

36:20 This is why I keep my phone handy when I'm taking walks. Just jot down all the good ideas I get while walking so they can't escape me.

[@slateoffate9812]

Creativity time; if Terios, Rabbit, and... some other scrapped stuff of your choice were to become their own characters, with the caveat that the games they were skins in(Superstars, Shadow Generations) are their canonical debut, what would you have their whole deals be?

[@Potatoboii2]

YT comment question to be answered in like 2 years lol I've been thinking about the time you mentioned the public not knowing much about the chaos emeralds, and I can't help but wonder: How many of the games does the average resident of Sonic's world know about? The only ones I can think of are the Adventures, Unleashed and Forces. I never played Shadow 05 and I know some crazy stuff happened in that, so maybe the ending is one people know about, and I guess I could see the Chaotix selling their story in Sonic Heroes if they're really strapped for cash. Am I right in thinking that the people in Sonic's World only think he saved the world 4 or 5 times?

[@slateoffate9812]

What was Starline up to during Eggman's tyranny in Forces?

[@ThatIdiotOmega]

I actually wanna hear Ian answer this. I hope this question gets sponsored

[@peacockqueen]

Is there a rule against another hedgehog girl besides Amy? I say this because the only hedgehog women I remember are Sonic's mothers in Archie and Underground and Sonic's sister in that same cartoon, but they were all from the American side, could Sonic Team at some point let us see another hedgehog girl in the games or IDW comics?

[@nithinshakthithiruppathi4028]

Isn’t Shadow The Hedgehog automatically all three too?

[@TheSwordsman100]

Regarding Venom and assuming its comic!Eddie who is the host since the question asked for anti-heroes and Eddie is the most well known heroic host, Eddie when he has control over the Venom symbiote does not actually eat people's brains, he just uses the threats of doing so to terrorize criminals. Eddie is so committed to not allowing the symbiote to consume human brains that he makes sure to keep a healthy supply of chocolate for the symbiote to eat instead. (as it also contains the chemical that the symbiote feeds off of) Venom did not actually start eating people until Mac Gargan aka the Scorpion got a hold of the symbiote, which for some reason was then grafted onto Eddie's adaptions.

[@johnnygyro2295]

Funny enough, one Boom episode eventually revealed that the island's town used a crystal for power. When the crystal was starting to run dry, the mayor sent Sonic and pals to get a new one. I don't remember the episode title, though.

[@slateoffate9812]

Where was Gemerl doing during Dream Team?

[@crystalinesunshine2927]

I probably would've added Bark the Polar Bear to Silver, Blaze, and Marine's team, but that's just me.

[@sevensvn5391]

You know, I'm kind of curious, if you were a citizen in Gotham city and for reasons were unable to leave for the foreseeable future, would you condone and approve of Batman and their activities? Given how many versions of Batman there are that go to pretty extreme lengths in pursuit of "the mission" (illegal surveillance, stalking, torture, breaking and entering, etc.), I was kind of curious on where you two stand in terms of whether you do or don't approve of Batman, especially within the scheme of a broken or corrupt system.

[@Pan-cackes]

Sonic rival is canon. Silver was introduced and Eggman Nega's story was rewritten to make him a character from the future rather than an alternate version. If this game isn't canon, I don't see why the second one would be. It's nothing new for Sega to declare something non-canon only to turn around on it later. They did this with Team Dark and other Sonic games. Silver Age was also written in 2016, a period where Sonic lore was almost non-existent

[@banobobot]

24:16 more or less the response I expected.

[@origialtych]

isn't there a thing that Eggman provides electricity in Boom's Universe

[@bathilra5364]

I wounder what a nermie version of pepsi man would be now

[@dmkq9554]

PepsiWoman! Sweet, but with a bite. Just like a fresh can of Pepsi on a hot summers eve

[@ArceusDX]

So, when do we get a Vector mod for RE4 remake

[@SkaiCyan]

I'm really curious what the non-family friendly answer the chat supplied was, lmao. Edit: Oh, they answered it at the end.

[@geoknuckles4629]

11:26 I agree MHA does fit more with Sonic, and Sonic may have elements from DBZ like super forms, seven objects, and a time traveler from the future but the only the thing I don't like about DBZ crossing over with Sonic is that DB doesn't have the best female cast to pair characters with like Amy, Blaze, Rouge, or Tangle.

[@quantumcalmness71]

..hrm. ...I dunno. DragonBall does have a female cast, even if they're mostly in the background. If we sidestep the obvious matches... How about Techno to. Bulma. Vanilla to Chichi. Amy to Lunch. Rouge to Videl. Tangle to Pan. Blaze to Princess Snake. And....Ebony to Madame Baba? But.... On the other hand... You could maybe argue that several of the alien races, monsters and immortals in Dragonball... Are either androgynous or feminine enough in appearance.. . They could also be interesting matches.

[@geoknuckles4629]

@@quantumcalmness71 Yeah but compared to female cast of MHA, One Peace, and Naruto they feel 😒.

[@quantumcalmness71]

@geoknuckles4629 True. But I'm curious. Is it that feeling because historically - and especially in the games - the Sonicverse female cast can relate to being in the background to a degree?

[@geoknuckles4629]

@@quantumcalmness71 What you mean by the Sonicverse female cast can relate to being in the background to a degree?

[@quantumcalmness71]

@geoknuckles4629 Just that especially in the first games female characters weren't really present. And even now... Blaze has been in games - but she frequently ends up back in another dimension. Amy has been in games, shows, etc - but more than once has felt like a token live girl that the developers kindly included but maybe weren't sure what to do with? Is that a fair assessment?

[@skeletonlover3214]

Cool

[@williamcaya]

If you adapted Paw Patrol into a comic book for IDW will the A and B covers be 3D rendered ones in paramount style and drawn ones?

[@origialtych]

Ian are you insane do you know nothing of Virtua Fighters Lore Don't Touch the Series it is insane I don't even understand it and I have seen a couple of videos about it
