Dr. Julian Robotnik is the chief villain in the 1993 Sonic The Hedgehog cartoon series ("SATAM"). His goal is to turn all life on planet Mobius into robots to do his bidding and to outlaw fun of any kind. He has a dim-witted nephew named Snively Robotnik and a pet robotic crow named Cluck. He was once King Acorn's right-hand man, until Robotnik staged a hostile takeover, turning his kingdom into "Robotropolis" and banishing the king into another dimension.

In the final episode, he was seemingly destroyed when Sonic and Sally destroyed his doomsday base, but in actuality there was supposed to be another season where it was revealed that Robotnik was actually banished into the Void, where he would become a servant to Ixis Naugus, who is the only person Robotnik is afraid of.. However, the show's abrupt cancellation prevented this, leading to what is perhaps the worst unresolved cliffhanger in television history.
