  Belle is like a D&amp;D NPC who was supposed to only be around for a one-off quest, only to stick around in the campaign longer than anyone planned, even the DM, and the DM isn&apos;t sure what to do with her but is doing their best to tell her story in the middle of the greater story.<br><br>Honestly, Belle&apos;s story and character progression aren&apos;t so bad when they&apos;re told in one sitting instead of stretched out over several issues.

  Eggman: &quot;The one thing other than myself I can truly say I care for would be my surrogate daughter... Sage.&quot;<br>Belle: &quot;Oh.. Okay then...&quot;

  &quot;The IDW Sonic comics have done a great job portraying the struggles of humanity and incorporating them into their stories.&quot;<br>That hits hard. We need more of this.

  I hope Sage makes an appearance in IDW since it would be really interesting to see her and Belle&apos;s reactions &amp; interactions with each other since they both represent different versions of Eggman&apos;s psyche

  It&apos;s going to be REALLY REALLY sad when Sage comes in the IDW Comics. I&apos;m praying for her future happiness.

  She isn&apos;t Eggman&apos;s neglected daughter.<br>She is Mr. Tinker&apos;s ORPHANED daughter.<br>You can thank Starline for that.

  I like how that in the IDW comics, Belle is his daughter, but in the games, &nbsp; <br>Sage is his daughter.

  Belle, metal sonic and sage are the 3 eggman creations who exceed their original purpose.<br><br>A puppet, a robot, A code. One wants the past, one wants respect, one purpose.<br><br>In a way they are like parts of eggman&apos;s good side calling for help. Eggman wants respect and purpose but had them in the past. Like his 3 creations, he too is trapped in a way he cannot escape.<br><br>It&apos;s just a theory but it makes you think. We never really knew why eggman is evil, he just chose it. A choice he could easily do for good.

  Dude, it&apos;s going to be VERY depressing to think about Belle when Sage appears in the comics

  It’s gonna be weird once sage gets added to idw cannon. The two are very similar yet very different in important ways. Sage would probably superficially refer to belle as her sister and not understand why belle can’t accept eggman as her father. And belle might have complicated feelings about eggman creating another daughter with a twisted version of what her and Mr. Tinker had.

  Belle is one of those characters that really shows that even if your creator is a monster who&apos;s name sends chills down everyone&apos;s spine, their legacy isn&apos;t your own.<br><br>Likewise, Belle turned her tragedy into a drive to help other robots or people to be the best they can be, which very few can say they did. Sure, she was born from a falsehood and potential what if...but it doesn&apos;t change the fact she is a real being. A being that wants something everyone who is anyone desires as some point: a sense of belonging; purpose at most.
