0Cinos the anti-Sonic is a malicious alternate version of Sonic the Hedgehog hailing from the continuity of the Sonic novels published by Virgen Books. Cinos made his first and only appearance in the 1993 book Sonic the Hedgehog in the Fourth Dimension.
Cinos the anti-Sonic was originally Sonic the Hedgehog himself, who traveled back in time with Tails in an attempt to undo the explosion of the ROCC (Retro-Orbital-Chaos-Compressor), a lab accident that resulted in the transformation of the kindly Dr. Kintobor into the evil Dr. Robotnik. Although Sonic initially succeeded in saving Kintobor, the new series of events led to an even more disastrous outcome due to the villainous Arctur the Dragonkin stealing time travel technology for his own benefit.
As such, Sonic and Tails traveled back in time to undo their undoing of the ROCC explosion, resulting in three Sonics and two Tails from different times all being present at the same moment. The plan went horribly wrong, however, and in addition to Kintobor being caught in the ROCC’s explosion, so was the previous version of Sonic, filling him with Chaos Energy and transforming him into an insane version of himself known as “Cinos the anti-Sonic”, with a personality similar to that of Robotnik’s. Cinos’ existence was short-lived, however, as the two versions of Tails managed to subdue him, while the latest version of Sonic absorbed Cinos, due to Cinos being a temporal duplicate of Sonic.
Due to the book being text-only (cover aside) no official imagery of Cinos exists, although the book describes him as essentially being a negative coloration of Sonic, with white fur, blue eyeballs, and bright green shoes and gloves.
