And his claim is the design is stolen from either of these two characters:

Okay, I seriously have no fucking clue what the second thing is supposed to be, but at the end of the day all these characters are just copy and pasted Knuckles with a bunch of additional bullshit glued to them.
The character in the movie has none of the same accessories as the Penders one. No white beard. None of the same markings and I'm certain they didn't give him the same name.
So, all that's left for Ken to bitch about is "Well, I came up with the idea of Knuckles having a dad first!"

The Sonic fanbase just never runs out bullshit...
The second thing is enerjak basically a god created from chaos energy due to one echidna fucking around and finding out. The armor does not match its clear as night and day. The movie is more South American or central/meso-America vibes whereas the comic is Egyptian or something similar.

I just figured it was based off the designs from Sonic Adventure during the flashbacks.
 
Just going to say it, Ken isn't going to do any thing more than chest beat on Twitter. Paramount has MUCH better lawyers than Archie had. The insanity will intensify when the Knuckles show comes out, I'm sure :popcorn:
 
Old ass fanart that basically sums up Ken Penders's masterstroke writing:

I mean he's right about people gravitating to Sonic aren't just in it for the games...though not the reason he thinks.

its the furry porn and fetish art
I’m fairly convinced that Sonic has managed to last as long as he has, despite multiple mediocre games, based solely on character design alone.
 
…there are no words.
I have none to give.
It wouldn't surprise me if a large number of those people who contacted him about this knew that the character in the movie wasn't based on Ken's original the character, Knuckles with huge eyebrows (aka Knuckles' dad) but told Ken it was because they knew he'd react like this.
its pure cognitive dissonance and I would love to see records of the calls. Considering I feel like the calls probably never happened to begin with.

In the theater the second I saw echidnas that weren't knuckles on the screen I leaned in to my friend and whispered "dude Ken Penders is gonna sue"
I was joking and yet here we are.
 
Well shit. Looks like another team came up with a civilization of Echidna before Penders did.

It's entertaining to see how many people came up with echidna civilisations before Ken, but didn't someone say it not so long ago, in this topic or the Sonic movie one: it's part of Knuckles background from the games, right? The last of his kind on Angel Island, a place full of ancient ruins, guarding the master emerald. All the different Sonic continuities include it because it's right there. Penders is trying to claim credit for reinventing the wheel covering the wheel in gross anatomy and burn 'n' dodge shading.
