In the Beginning, There was Sonic
Long before Sonic became a household name, he was just getting his (running) start, and Sega wasn't quite sure what to do with him. That's where we come in. The gang takes a look back at Sonic's earliest days via the various revisions of the original American production bible. From the brainchild of a dead fighter pilot's widow, to a Nebraskan boy who loses the closest thing to a father he ever knew, to the cocky hero planet Mobius deserves, this is your chance to learn the REAL Sonic origins!

(00:07:37) The original Japanese story concept (the Fighter Pilot origin)
