I think the more likely explanation was that Rare wanted the former explanation, but, due to time or whatever, they wanted to reuse an asset, thus, Spinal was repurposed as “Eagle”. That, or Spinal wasn’t dead and still had some hold over Eagle. I think the idea Rare was trying to convey at the time was that Eagle’s spirit wasn’t at peace in the original game, that he would come back as some sort of undead being. He was the one who supposedly killed Eagle, but he is not Eagle. To answer your question, Spinal is not Eagle. Welcome to the forums, dude! Always a pleasure meeting a fellow KI fan. Merry Christmas to all Killer Instinct fans! So I would love to talk about this game with other KI fans.Īlso, sorry if there’s mistakes in writing, but english is not my mother language. Im just a huge fan and I have loved Killer Instinct since the first time I played it as a little girl. Yes, I really have overthought about a videogame and it’s lore and characters. So, which one is true?įinnish wiki also says that Cinder was suspected dead and that Orchid’s and Combo’s lores are in conflict with each other. In Killer Instinct wiki in his KI1 extended lore it’s said that werewolf bit him, but in the comics Sabrewulf said that lycantropy has plagued his family for years. Finnish wiki also says, that he suffers from genetic disorder that makes him that werewolf-like creature. Well, Rare has never said that he was a doctor or Ultratech’s employee (neither has that said in game or guide book, nowhere actually expect in finnish wiki). Well, Jago in the first game is not very tall either, but its possible that he really is asian, stated that he is tibetian monk and lives at Himalayas, but then what about his sister Orchid? English wikipedia says that in the KI comic issues its stated that she is european african (well I havent notice that even I have read all comics)įinnish wikipedia also says, that Sabrewulf is a doctor and was employee of Ultratech. (Im finnish/gipsy and Im only 155cm, usually finnish women arent that short so…) Maybe if something could imply for Spinal being asian, could be his height (169cm) because asian people usually aren’t very tall, but thats not always like that. KI Wiki says that he was a war lord, but nothing about him being asian. Second, now when talking about Spinal, I dont think Rare ever has stated what is Spinal’s ethinity? Finnish wikipedia says, that he was japanese war lord. Is Spinal Eagle? Or does Spinal has something to do with Thunder and Eagle or with Eagles possible death? In game’s lore he lost in tournament and didnt find out about Eagle, in comics he found out that Eagle actually was Fulgore (or at least one of those Fulgores) and in his ending in game, he visited at Eagles grave, and there was Spinal. First, many of us probably have been thinking about Thunder’s story from KI (1994)
