The Genesis Unit is a robotic group made by Dr. Wily in the year 20XX in the Mega Man franchise, but were revived by Dr. Wily and Dr. Eggman in the Sonic the Hedgehog and Mega Man comic crossover event, Sonic & Mega Man: Worlds Collide. Consisting of Buster Rod G, Hyper Storm H, and Mega Water S, the group first appeared in Sonic Universe #52, where at Copy Robot's signal, the Genesis Unit ambushed at Sonic the Hedgehog and Mega Man.
History
At Skull Egg Zone, Sonic the Hedgehog, Mega Man, Proto Man, Miles "Tails" Prower, and Mega Man's robotic dog, Rush, found themselves facing Copy Robot. Sonic, noticing the same robot that aimed at Silver earlier at Green Hill Zone. The two brace on to attack Copy Robot, but the Genesis Unit strikes behind Copy Robot. As Sonic faces Buster Rod G (and insults the robot by calling him Kiki), Mega Man faces Copy Robot, and Tails and Proto Man face Hyper Storm H and Mega Water S, respectfully. After several times of being hit, Mega Man uses his Tails Wind Master Weapon he got from a roboticized Tails back at Mega City to blow away Copy Robot. Mega Man uses this Master Weapon against Hyper Storm H and then Buster Rod G, knocking both of them down. Mega Water S, realizing he's outnumbered runs away but he is shot by Proto Man. The Genesis Unit is currently down for now. (SU #52)
Trivia
- The Genesis Unit is named so, in reference to the fact that their three members first debuted in Mega Man: The Wily Wars, a game released exclusively for the Sega Genesis (it is also the only Mega Man game released for the system). Fittingly, they're depicted on the cover facing Sonic: the mascot of Sega who also madehis debut on the same console.
