Botman is one of the Comic Book Bots that Dr. Robotnik created to destroy Sonic the Hedgehog in the Sonic the Hedgehog comics. He was inspired by the superhero Batman.
History
The first of the comic robots, Botman, was called after Sonic fell for Robotnik's broadcast of his intentions to turn the Great Forest into a toxic waste dump. Summoned by a spotlight signal, he arrived and briefly appeared to be winning against Sonic. However, Sonic proved too fast for this robot, even gutting him so fast that Robotnik wasn't even aware that Botman had been defeated. (StH #8)
