@ RiderJones: That would be out of character for Sonic.

I'm saying Sonic wasn't meant to be so edgy. Sure, it can become edgy, but again, there's a point where Sonic can cross the line. To compare with Batman would jump Sonic into some bad territory for a lot of people. It's bad enough that the video games are getting a lot of garbage for their seriousness (and mass of characters, but that's another issue).
