Brain Drain Machine

The Brain Drain Machine is an object that appears in the Sonic the Comic series published by Fleetway Editions. It is mind control device created by Doctor Ivo Robotnik

Description
The Brain Drain Machine places its victims into a hypnotic dream state, showing them nightmarish scenarios that present a submissive solution. The end result is the subject's mind being left blank and open to Robotnik's commands.

History
Sonic and Tails were captured by Robotnik and subjected to the Brain Drain Machine.

Sonic's dream showed him to be a human boy by the name of Erin who refused to eat eggs for breakfast. In this dream sequence, Erin knocked himself out trying to break down a fence so he could save his next-door neighbor from some unseen bullies, though the shadows that were seen resembled Badniks. Erin woke up in bed unable to move when his mother came in with an egg. It was only when his mother said "EAT IT, SPIKEBALL!" that Erin realized the truth. He was not a boy who dreamed he was a hedgehog, but the complete opposite. Having resisted the Brain Drain's mental programming, Sonic broke free of the machine and forced Robotnik to retreat before releasing Tails.
