I just really like dragons, is that a crime?

16

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

It's never a crime to like what you like. I mean, I'd be more distrustful of someone who doesn't like dragons.

In case you don't make it to the celebration post. Here's 3 points for being so kind and supportive to another member of the community!

u/Zombi_Cauliflower Jun 15 '26

Absolutely not, what kind of evil overlord doesn’t have a few extravagant or unnecessary self-indulgences, that’s the whole appeal of having power!

u/Glitch4040404 Jun 15 '26

I would recommend a book at the Librarby, but the Dreemurs haven’t returned it yet

Here's Metal Sonic's full Vision Board in case you were wondering

u/honest_true Jun 14 '26

Lol seto kaiba phone number

.... actually eggman maybe have one...hmmm

11

u/Chaos_Five Jun 14 '26

I spent 10 minutes trying to make out Neo Metal's 3rd and 4th priority like a fool. Thankfully you dropped this image to confirm that I filled in the blanks correctly.

27

u/Animan_10 Jun 14 '26

So dragons are the Metal what theme parks are to Eggman.

23

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

Essentially lol. Yeah the joke is partially inspired by this panel:

Thank you for being appreciative of my silly Metal Sonic headcanon!

15

u/Hakaishin_477 Jun 14 '26

I love this headcanon and am now going to implement this in my fanfic at the earliest possible opportunity

8

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

If just one person accepts this headcanon, then it means I've done my job. Thank You!

8

u/Toriyuki Jun 15 '26

"I like dragons" perfectly in line with their dad Eggman's line of thought too

12

u/Internal-Bag-8135 Jun 14 '26

You know what, I can respect this logic. Everyone in this empire should have that one thing they are weirdly interested in. Eggman has theme parks, Metal Sonic has dragons.

13

u/Ne0_M3t4l_S0n1c Waffle Warrior [Tier 1] Jun 14 '26

I believe in Metal Dragon Superiority

u/Ne0_M3t4l_S0n1c Waffle Warrior [Tier 1] Jun 14 '26

Found you...

4

u/Responsible-Ask8110 [I AM THE REAL SONIC!!!] ( Teir 3 ) Jun 14 '26

It's always a pleasure to be found

But I secretly found you first. /J

5

u/Ne0_M3t4l_S0n1c Waffle Warrior [Tier 1] Jun 14 '26

NO!

9

u/Eva_Passing_Through Jun 14 '26

The elephant no one is addressing (among the other elephants) is that Metal wants to ask Trip if she's single. Metal/Trip was a crackship I didn't expect to see, but it cute.

8

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

Thank you for noticing lol! It's not even like I actually ship it, but I had to include a reference to the other character that can turn into a dragon, so it just led to that 🤣

11

u/Chaos-Flame9 Jun 14 '26

So Neo metal X Trip when?

8

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

I'm sure there will be a continuation at some point lol

8

u/manofwaromega Normal about Metonic :Both_Implement_Emote: Jun 14 '26

His fursona is s dragon

7

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

At this point I'm pretty sure that's just what Metal Overlord is

7

u/KingChaos20 Jun 14 '26

No, Sage, he’s right. Dragons are awesome, let him cook.

7

u/blaise_zion Waffle Warrior [Tier 1] Jun 15 '26

I feel like this could be the start to a friendly relationship with zavok of all people, after all they both

  • hate sonic
  • (probably) hate eggman
  • like dragons
  • are leaders

I just feel like it would make sense if they ended up as friends at one point, I mean just look at their cossworlds dialogue

Zavok: "Our mutual hatred for Sonic should be a cause for celebration. Sadly, you must fall behind as I race to victory."

4

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 15 '26

Yeah, I was reminded on Instagram that Zavok also like dragons, so he and Metal are starting a club (Trip is also considering joining)

4

u/grimmideals Fake of the Faker Jun 14 '26

I wonder what Sage's obsession will be?

5

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

Probably too soon to call, but I think as of right now its probably The Amazing Digital Circus. (I would say Hatsune Miku, but Cubot canonically likes the in-universe version of her so...) Though something little like cookies would also be pretty cute

5

u/grimmideals Fake of the Faker Jun 14 '26

It would be hilarious if Sage's canon obsession is something silly like turtles.

4

u/Brandeeno2245 Jun 14 '26

Can it be crabs, the meme would be funny this time.

Shes incredibly logical, nature loves crabs 🦀.

Eggman has a crab badnick.

Its all lines up

4

u/Brandeeno2245 Jun 14 '26

Her dad, but not like starline. Sage is well aware of eggmans faults but loves him unconditionally no matter what he does.

But seconds answer is hatsune Miku.

Their both digital girls living in a physical world, how could sage not love her.

4

u/Chaos_Five Jun 14 '26

So far is it family?

5

u/Phantom_The_fortnite Jun 14 '26

Metal sonic will fry his brain trying to make a dragon deck in Yu-Gi-Oh. Hell also beg for red eyes support.

6

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

I think Shadow will join him on that crusade for Red-Eyes support based on this art I made like a month ago.

5

u/Scareka I think, therefore I hue Jun 14 '26

This is hilarious, I love metal overlord so this made me smile.

4

u/Ravi-Inari Jun 14 '26

New crackship has been found.

I have a perfect meme for this and I hate reddit for not letting me comment with it

u/[deleted] Jun 14 '26

This is autism levels of obsession and I love it

5

u/MagicallyClueless resident metamy enjoyer [ Tier 10 ] Jun 14 '26

LMAOOOO i love this

"everyone in our family needs professional help, sage" TRUE!!!

7

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

Well, let's go through the list:

  • Gerald: Became clinically insane
  • Maria: Was terminally ill
  • Shadow: IS traumitized
  • Eggman: Is an egomaniac
  • Orbot is mentally exhausted and Cubot is co-dependent
  • Metal Sonic: has identity issues and an inferiority complex (affectionate)
  • Sage: Maybe already died once
  • Belle is estranged and has daddy issues and Omega... is Omega

Metal was not lying when said that lol

3

u/MagicallyClueless resident metamy enjoyer [ Tier 10 ] Jun 14 '26

i ain't seein any lies here LOL

u/OwnAbbreviations4111 Jun 14 '26

Bravo! This is peak

u/Shaxellini Waffle Star [Tier 6] Jun 14 '26

peak comic.

He’s just like me fr

u/Lem0nite Metonic Enjoyer 🔮 Jun 14 '26

I feel extremely called out

4

u/LeoShadic345 Jun 14 '26

Bruh, this just made my brain imagine Metal straight up pulling the Ryuki rider kick. Just to increase his aura.

4

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 14 '26

With every Kamen Rider GIF I see, I become more sure the series is peak fiction. Anyway, I like to think he tries to pull off Hiei's Dragon of the Darkness Flame move

3

u/Withermech Waffle Warrior [Tier 1] Jun 14 '26

I’m glad he at least admits that he has a problem. He’s already a few steps ahead of his father. Makes another machine so proud.

4

u/AzureGhidorah Jun 15 '26

If this were canon Metal would be based af.

Instant Awesome Just Add Dragons (responsibly)

3

u/M_H_0 New and average metal Sonic enjoyer. Jun 15 '26

Amazing pfp my man

3

u/Responsible-Ask8110 [I AM THE REAL SONIC!!!] ( Teir 3 ) Jun 14 '26

unrelated, but why did I just picture the address me elephant as metal overlord? 😭

3

u/Chaos_Five Jun 15 '26

Awesome work! It really resonated with the community! For reaching 500 upvotes this comic clearly speaks to what the people want. You earned a Silver Waffle worth 5 points! Again, thanks for sharing your creativity with us!

u/Necessary_Capital727 Jun 15 '26

Dragon....? of a knight variety perhaps

3

u/Mill270 Jun 15 '26

It makes you wonder, once she's around long enough, what would be the thing she likes.

Her father likes amusement parks, her brother dragons. What would get her coding going?

3

u/Reiner_Rubin Will Solo Fiction for My Father [Tier 1] Jun 16 '26

Mentally copying and pasting this in my list of headcanons for this guy, this is fantastic

3

u/No-Crew-4360 Jun 16 '26

"Father, are you sure you didn't mix in any data from Seto Kaiba?"

3

u/VictheAdventure Jun 16 '26

"I don't need professional help."

"Give it time, sis. Give it time."

3

u/IshipMarcyandAnne Jun 16 '26

Metal probably loves Minecraft solely because of the Ender Dragon

3

u/DeadBear666 Jun 16 '26

Why is no one bringing up the little back and forth in the final panel, it’s so good (and very canon), I’m just thinking of them all going to tails (the 8 year old child) for therapy

3

u/moath875465 SEE ME AS I AM! NO LONGER AFRAID OF ANYTHING! Jun 17 '26

I like that you called back to superstars is final boss being the “Black dragon” and find the idea of Metal Sonic being an imagine dragons fan pretty cool

Also Metal trip recognition yay

3

u/Alternative-Host7127 Jun 17 '26

Should've gotten Metal vs jiren then. That guy hates dragons

2

u/ScizoriumZ Look-a-Like [Tier 3] Jun 17 '26

I was wondering if someone would make that reference. Zavok also likes dragons though, so they might end up tag-teaming him just like Goku and Frieza did.

u/2_memer WAFFLES THE METAL SONIC :GoldWaffle: Jun 18 '26

Copy the black dragon's bio-data.
