Description[]
Big-brained but incompetent mad scientists who mess with nature to create their armies of mutant, genetically-modified creatures and mechs on a mission for world domination! Only, they are constantly defeated by their mumbling, lunatic rivals (Crash Bandicoot and Crazy Dave). But which of them will come up on top? Who will take the throne? Who's brain is gonna end up getting eaten?? ...or destroyed along with the rest of their body? This battle is created by Ctpeyton.
Introduction[]
Wiz: Dr. Zomboss - creator and leader of the Undead from Plants vs Zombies.
Boomstick: And Dr. Neo Cortex - Animal-abuser of Wumpa Island and Archnemesis to Crash Bandicoot.
Wiz: These two mad scientists have disrespected the very forms of life for their own personal gain. Only to be thwarted time and time again by their respective enemies.
Boomstick: But in a fight to the death, they REALLY need to try their damnest.
Wiz: For this fight, both mad scientists will be assisted by not only their personal arsenal, but their respective armies.
Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick!
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win a DEATH BATTLE!
Dr. Zomboss has come for DEATH BATTLE's Brains![]
Boomstick: AHHHHH! ZOMBIES ATTACK!
Wiz: In the city of Neighborville, the dead have risen from their graves to hunt for one thing…
Boomstick: BRAINS!!!
Wiz: Lucky for us, Crazy Dave from next door is here to lend us the protection that we need in the form of… PLANTS?
Boomstick: *MUTATED* Plants, Wiz. Good ol’ wacko Dave might have some screws loose, but he was smart enough to genetically modify plants into sentient and powerful creatures. Some of the many examples are the sharp-shooting Peashooter, the angry Cherry Bombs, the Wall-Nut.
Wiz: Alright, so the humans have a force of their own to fight off the zombie apocalypse. Great! Now all that is left is to find out *who* is responsible for this event? What kind of mad scientist or warlord would disrespect the dead, disrupting their sleep only to make them slaves for mass-murder or possibly world domination?
Boomstick: None other than Doctor Zomboss.
Background
- Full name: Dr. Edgar George Zomboss
- Species: Zombie
- Attended Zombie University
- Has a Doctorate in Thanatology
- Owns a hedgehog for a pet-servant
- Likes: Brains, Pop Smarts, Pranks, Collecting Toenail Clippings
- Dislikes: Crazy Dave, Defeat, Sunlight, Chihuahuas
Boomstick: Even when he was a college student, Edgar George Zomboss was a trouble-maker: Pranking his fellow students with spiders, stealing candy from highschoolers, stealing milk money, cheating on tests, and even… [gasps] stealing another student’s work!
Boomstick: So the fact that Crazy Dave apparently stealing Zomboss’s science project started their whole beef in the first place is kinda ironic.
Wiz: With a degree in Thanatology and his literal big brain, Dr. Zomboss started his own science/technology company and made the dead rise from their graves. His mission: EAT BRAINS! Oh, and take over the world.
Boomstick: What the Zombies lack in intelligence, they make up for it in their numbers, teamwork, and variety of weapons.
- Basic Zombie
-Wears protective headwear
-Uses Shields
-Uses jump over obstacles
-Carries an explosive jack-in-the-box
-Can swim
-Can ride vehicles and animals
-Can fly
-Can carry weapons
-Can wear Plants as heads
- TV Head (the Zombie wearing a TV over its head)
- Bungee Zombie
- Digger Zombie
- Wizard Zombie
- Engineer Zombie
- Football Zombie
- Scientist Zombie
- Disco Zombie/Olds Cool
- Zen Zombie
- Robot Zombie
- Yeti
- Gargantuar
- Imp
- Baron Von Bats
- 80S Action Hero
- Electric Slide
- Space Cadet
- Captain Deadbeard
- Captain Smasher
- Zombie Animals
-Including Hover Goat-3000
Wiz: Normal Zombies move slow, but they can fly over obstacles with balloons tied to their backs or with jetpacks. Despite supposing to be stiff, Zombies are capable of leaping using poles.
Boomstick: To protect themselves from projectiles, they either wear headgear or hold mundane items in front of them as shields, including a newsPAPER. They can swim and hide underwater, dig underground, drop down from the air and kidnap your boi, ride vehicles to drop down reinforcement or mow down enemies (especially with the ones that use zombies or a whole TORNADO for an engine),
and can carry weapons; the exploding Jack-in-the-Box is my favorite.
Wiz: Their foot soldiers' Z1 Assault Blasters act basically like rifles, and their ZPG Rocket Launcher are handy for gaining extra elevation.
Boomstick: There are different variants of zombies, though. There are the little Imps, who sneak or are thrown into enemy territory. They, too, can carry blasters, hover with "butt-jets", use gravity grenades to suck enemies in and when they need some extra muscle, they can call down the Z-Mech.
Boomstick: The Wizard Zombie flies around on his staff, supporting his allies in battle with potions or transforming into a star to increase their fire power. Oh, but his magic can transform enemies into sheep.
Wiz: There are the extra-durable Football Zombies, who can ram into targets and either throw Imps with explosives strapped to their torsos (don't worry, they're fine) or shoot footballs from their cannons.
Wiz: The Engineer Zombies fire bolts from their Big Bolt Blasters and send out drones for aerial offence.
Wiz: The Scientist Zombies use bombs for either destruction or... heal-truction?
Boomstick: No.
Wiz: Aw. But they can teleport and wear packs that shoot a purple stream to heal allies.
Boomstick: Big, tough dudes that carry machine guns, engineers that plant turrets, doctors that carry packs to shoot health? I'm getting some obvious TF2 influence here.
- Super Brainz
- The Smash
- Impfinity
- Rustbolt
- Electric Boogaloo
- Brain Freeze
- Professor Brainstorm
- Immorticia
- Z-Mech
- Neptuna
- Huge-Gigantacus
Wiz: By accident, Dr. Zomboss started giving his Zombies superpowers, creating a "super" brand of Zombies called "Zombie Heroes". The face of such is the narcissistic Super Brainz. 
Wiz: He's strong enough to flip a road or throw a car, blast people away with a "Clappa-Doom", throw goats (this series has a thing with goats), can tank electricity and rocks launched at him, shoot fireballs, fast enough to create a tornado and dodge or block lasers, and his stench alone is toxic enough to kill someone.
Boomstick: A Zombie Hero that can rival him is Galac- er I mean Huge-Gigantacus. In the game, he can freeze enemies, teleport, but is capable of conquering the universe.
Boomstick: His "Terror-Form 10,000" power allows him to summon hazards into the environment. For example, he can just summon a black hole from space into a grassy area!
Wiz: The biggest and strongest of the Undead before both Heroes is the Gargantuar - hulking beasts that can tank major damage, the Wiki stating they can take over 3,000 hits before going down.
Wiz: They are strong enough to lift and swing telephone poles, which weigh a maximum of 1,200 pounds. In a comic, three Gargantuars survived this explosion caused by a Doom-Shroom. Given its size and setting, it is capable of leveling a city-block.
Boomstick: Back-tracking, it turns out Zombies can be as fast as they need to. They fight Plant soldiers who can react to cannonballs, lasers and rockets. They can react and block speedy projectiles, such as the Meteor Flower's meteors, which it conjures directly from the sky, the meteors, themselves, moving at Mach 54.3.
Wiz: The Zombies can continue moving even when the flow of time is disrupted and even when traversing through the Gnomes' (Yes. Gnomes.) world where the SpaceTime continuum is unstable.
Boomstick: But the most dangerous quality all these Zombies have in common is their immortality... obviously... they are already dead.
Wiz: Though they can still feel pain, they can be repeatedly shot at by rapid-fire peas, decapitated, set on fire, blown up, frozen solid, crushed, electrocuted with the full power of a lighting strike, or melted down to a liquid by the very core of the Earth. Yet, the Zombies will live on... as much as they can. Even when their bodies are destroyed, their souls can even leave their bodies and possess someone.
Wiz: They are immune to the cold, acid, poisons and diseases, have no capacity for fear, and don't need sleep or air to breath. They are unaffected by time paradoxes, changes in time, reality-warping and erasure of their soul, mind, and body. Since Dr. Zomboss is a zombie, himself, he should have the same level of immunity as his army; his durability has been proven when he survived being electrocuted and shot with an EMP explosion.
Boomstick: But Zomboss is a mad scientist; he has inventions made for certain purposes.
Personal Arsenal
- Raygun
- Spiders’
- Globe of Muddlegas
- Cloud Machine
- Sun Vacuum
- Ultra-Toasty, Imp-Powered Heat Ray
- Flower-Bot
- Cold Crystal
- Handheld Device
- Massive Munch Machine
- Mechanical Arms Pack
- Magnet Machine
- Time Machine
- ZomBox
-“Boss Mode”
- Zombots
Boomstick: Like his Ultra Toasty Heat Ray that is powerful enough to blast holes in a wall. The only thing I don't like is that it has a tiny Imp slaving away to make it function.
Boomstick: Two more machines were meant to take away the Plants' power source: SUNLIGHT.
Wiz: The Sun Vacuum sucks up sunshine, while Zomboss's Cloud Machine creates a thick cloud that blocks out the sun. But his goal is really feasting on the humans. That's why he created muddlegas - a chemical gas that renders the citizens of Neighborville into mindless... idiots, leaving them unable to do anything while the Zombies freely eat their brains. That's... actually horrifying.
Boomstick: Zomboss also invented the Cold Crystal, which is capable of freezing an entire city. This should be stronger than the Cryokinetic Yeti Zombie, Brain Freeze, freezing a whole waterpark.
Wiz: Given the amount of water an average waterpark, its basic heat and how much it weighs, Brain Freeze had to have given out an energy of 357.1 Tons of TNT.
Boomstick: Possibly his greatest invention, though, is this amazing device, which inflicts a variety of truly diabolical effects on Zomboss's enemies, such as sending them back in time, shrinking them to the size of ants, or-
(Both hosts laugh at the image.)
Boomstick: Such a waste.
Wiz: Yeah, no, his actual greatest weapon is the Zombot.
Wiz: No. Zombots plural. He has made MANY variants with quirks for different uses.
Wiz: The first original model drops zombies onto the battlefield and dangles bungee zombies on its fingers. It shoots either fireballs or iceballs, or a laser from its mouth. It's strong enough to throw a van.
Boomstick: That's a very sturdy roof.
Wiz: Multiple Zombot variants have their own quirks. But the most powerful so far is the Zombot 1000.
Boomstick: It has the most durability out of them all, can shoot explosive fireballs from its mouth, can slam the ground so hard it causes a shockwave, and since the previous Zombots are considered "classics" in comparison, it could be capable of doing everything they could, but better.
Wiz: Plus, when in the middle of war, Dr. Zomboss can command and support his army from inside his blimp.
Boomstick: While in, as the green-skinned brainiac says, "Boss Mode", he can track the location of all nearby enemies, supply healing stations, place cones with bombs inside them, make it rain actual bombs to blow shit up, and whip up some Barbecue Brains to revive fallen allies.
Feats
- Founder of Z-Tech
- Him and his Zombie army traveled back in time and altered history
- Distracted Crazy Dave and the kids with a race to have the zombies take over Neighborville
–The race turned out to be a tie thanks to Mr. Stubbins
- Took over caverns with his Zombie army and planned to sink Neighborville underground
- Created the Zombie Heroes and the Zombot 1000
- Durability is comparable to his Zombies
- Capable of taking over Neighborville and the Garden (Plants’ Turf)
- Capable of causing a never-ending solar eclipse via the Magnet Machine
Wiz: Through all the battles between natural life and death, Dr. Zomboss has shown his capabilities of domination and defeating the Plants for good. Once, him and his army took over the undergrounds of Neighborville and planned to sink the rest of the city down under using giant hydraulics. But, somehow, the functions could be rewritten by a child.
Boomstick: After an accident with his machine, the explosion ripped a hole in reality, yes, granting the Zombies the ability to travel across eras in time and mess up history.
Boomstick: Even causing the meteor that killed the dinosaurs to shrink from its original size, which was bigger than Seattle, to the size of being smaller than a burrito. Zomboss also made his own time machine after being inspired by a... metal butt...
Wiz: Assuming that you have played on Zombies' side in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfares 1 and 2, Dr. Zomboss had technically succeeded in conquering the Garden and the world with a Magnet Machine stationed on the Moon, its ray changing Earth's orbit to face said Moon and block out the sun, depriving the Plants of their sunlight and greatly weakening them.
Boomstick: Don't worry; this is of course just a possible timeline. But who knows what Dr. Zomboss has in store next. After the last game, he could be working on some way to get rid of those filthy gnomes. Or just taking some time off and enjoy a delectable treat of PopSmarts. Much better than brains if you ask me.
Dr. Neo Cortex Darns DEATH BATTLE![]
Wiz: On the Australian island of Wumpa Island lives the twisted, marsupial hero - Crash Bandicoot.
Boomstick: Jumpy, acrobatic, spinny and low on intelligence. But behind all the craziness, where did he come from?
Wiz: That would be Cortex Island, where Crash and his girlfriend, Tawna, were mutated along with the other animals on the island. Afterward, Crash’s new powers were tested in a nine-month training program in a process of becoming the general to lead an evil scientist’s army towards world domination.
Boomstick: Unfortunately, this “failure” would become the greatest enemy of the nefarious Doctor Neo Cortex.
Background
- Full name: Dr. Neo Periwinkle Cortex
- Height: 5.5 ft | 160 cm
- Birthplace: Peoria, Illinois
- Founder of Neo-Cor Systems
- Arch-nemesis (and creator) of Crash Bandicoot
- Former Student of Madame Amberley's Academy of Evil
- Youngest son to a family of circus clowns
- “N” on his head stands for “Nerd”
Wiz: But in his past life, he was born to a family of circus clowns. This was supposed to be a life of color and fun and making people laugh. But Cortex preferred spending his time reading books on science. I approve.
Boomstick: Unfortunately, being born in a society of assholes, the poor bundle of misery was teased for this by his supposed "loved ones", even had an “n” drawn on his forehead with permanent marker.
Wiz: One day, a “freak accident” involving fireworks took the lives of Cortex’s family. He was the only survivor. Now on his own, Neo Cortex enrolled in Madame Amberley's Academy of Evil at age 6. But, even while excelling in his classes, he was still bullied verbally and physically by classmates and teachers. After ANOTHER “freak” explosion, Cortex and his only best friend Nitrus Brio ran away to start their new villain careers.
Boomstick: Taking over Wumpa Islands, they set up operation inside a castle and constructed a power plant to mass-produce his deadly machines.
Cortex Army
- Lab Assistants
- Drones
- Mechs
- Titans
- Mutant Henchmen
-Including Bandicoots
- Ratnicians
- Nitrus Brio
- N. Gin
- Nina Cortex
- Ripper Roo
- Rilla Roo
- Koala Kong
- Pinstripe Potoroo & his Gang
- Komodo Brothers
- Tiny Tiger
- Dingodile
- Nefarious Tropy
- Nitros Oxide
- Robo-Cortex
- Fake Crash
- Fake CoCo
- Uka Uka
- The Elementals
- The Quantum Masks
Boomstick: In his castle, Dr. Cortex is assisted by his… Assistants. These tall, lanky nerds in lab coats can pilot planes or other vehicles, wield weapons, use MAGIC and conduct electricity through their body. 
Wiz: His robots… aren’t that menacing. They’re either crawling drones, cameras that fly in the air, or clean the walls. But they do manage to harm Crash just by touching him.
Boomstick: I think it's the lava in their pipes or the electric tentacles? Some of them do have saws.
Wiz: But there is a toy robot that can grow into a giant mech. But it does need to be plugged in.
Wiz: There is the Punchbot Mark 2, a robot with boxing gloves that spins until it gets dizzy.
Boomstick: HA! Pales in comparison to that actual boxing mech!
Wiz: The Slap-E robots attack, jump, block, and walk with their fingers, and also share Cortex’s personal issues.
Boomstick: DUDES! This Not-A-Clown-Anymore created you! Show respect! Anyway, here’s a giant dancing robot called the "Cortexbot" and a floating head with Rayman hands with the same name.
Boomstick: "The Doominator" super robot is capable of destroying all of Wumpa Island, and a giant robotic version of himself is capable of raining down missiles and detaching its head and hands. But the real doppelganger is the Robo-Cortex, who is one of the many henchmen Cortex sent across the Multiverse. This robotic replica can fire missiles and shoot lasers from its eyes.
Wiz: But with the Evolvo-Ray, Cortex could turn small animals into giant, diversely skilled mutants to loyally serve as his minions.
Wiz: A couple of specific mutants stand out, such as Ripper Roo the kangaroo, who is limited to jumping on his enemies due to his arms being bound inside a strap jacket.
Boomstick: Koala Kong is a gigachad capable of lifting and throwing large boulders. Pinstripe Potoroo is the leader of Cortex’s own mafia gang. He even carries around his [in Italian accent] lil' friend! Tiny the not-so-tiny Tiger prefers pouncing on his enemies, but can use tridents that can emit electricity. He is pretty strong, too, able to destroy stone pillars just by pulling at his chains.
Wiz: Dingodile, the dingo/crocodile hybrid, when he's still a villain, wields a flamethrower. Oh, and I’ve tried his diner’s pies! They are delicious!
Boomstick: There is the green, mean, race-obsessed alien with the hovercraft machine, Nitrous Oxide!
Boomstick: But there are Cortex’s closest allies. Dr. N Brio is a chemist, creating different potions that, when consumed, will transform him into the hulk or pterodactyl. He also has a Gem-powered laser beam that can slice apart a space station.
Wiz: Cortex’s most trusted duo of sidekicks are N. Gin the cyborg and Nina Cortex - Cortex’s niece.
Boomstick: Or daughter.
Wiz: N. Gin operates his own mechs while Nina is equipped with bionic hands made for grappling and crushing. She operates a mech, too - the spider mech suit called the Arachnina. Her uncle (or father) entrusted her with his Mutate-O-Raygun-3000 to transform island critters into loyal mutants. The raygun has another function that transforms targets into babies.
Boomstick: Speaking of reversing age…
Wiz: What?
Boomstick: Cortex has been assisted by time scientist, Doctor Nefarious Tropy. Along with his fork staff generating energy waves, his armor is actually a time machine; not only can he travel through time, but can telepathically manipulate time around him.
Wiz: This power is called “chronokinesis”. N. Trophy is able to somewhat warp reality, shifting his environment into different eras and controlling movement speed, slowing down objects or people, and speeding himself up to seem like teleportation. Oh, and a perk of being a "Master of Time" is being able to see into the future.
Boomstick: Wait. Doesn’t N. Tropy hate Cortex now? He betrayed him in the technical fourth game, right?
Wiz: Well thankfully, Cortex is the student of a greater, more respectable evil - the voodoo mask spirit, Uka Uka.
Wiz: Brother to Aku Aku - who is basically a god - he has the same powers, such as protecting his wearer and even possessing them. He can shoot an energy beam and create an artificial body out of forms of matter. He can even teleport across dimensions. Uka Uka has educated Cortex in utilizing Mojo - life energy (that might contain nuts) to create mutants known as “Titans”. Matter of fact, It would make sense that Uka Uka is able to "jack" these creatures, possessing their bodies akin to his brother’s ability to do such.
Boomstick: Together, Uka Uka and Cortex freed the Elementals - more evil masks who use their respective powers to cause natural disasters across the world.
Boomstick: And by kidnapping the four Quantum Masks, or they willingly stand there to be used by lowly mortals, Cortex can harness their powers to warp reality in four different ways.
Boomstick: Now can Cortex handle himself in a fight? Actually, he can!
Personal Arsenal
- Blaster
- Mutation Ray
- N. Tropy's staff
- Hoverboard
- Jetpack
- Kart
- Rocket
- Explosives
-Mines
-Bombs
-Missiles
-TNT/Nitro Crates
- Power Shield

- Matrix Chamber
- The Cortex Vortex
- Planetary Minimizer
Wiz: Neo Cortex wields his blaster, which includes a teleportation function and one that transmutes targets into platforms.
Boomstick: Ew! I can see the brain!
Wiz: But he has to be careful with preserving its ammo.
Wiz: He rides on a hoverboard or with a jetpack in space, even a rocket that can even carry part of an iceberg. He carries around mines or bombs, protects himself inside a Power Shield, can create clones with the Make-Another-Ator, and carries around one of Brio’s mutation formulas to give himself a power boost. And it turns out he is, by default, a Skylander of the Tech Element.
Boomstick: He had his chance to prove himself when he invented the Matrix Chamber to use rhytmic energy to brainwash everyone on Wumpa Island, but that bootleg Crash messed around with it and almost ripped the whole Island apart with bad vibes. Anyway, inside the Cortex Vortex (the space station, not the mind control machine) holds the Planetary Minimizer - a powerful ray that shrinks the Earth into the size of a grapefruit.
Feats
- Survived for 3 years in the Antarctic, even while frozen
- Created Crunch Bandicoot
- Shrunk the Earth
- Survived the destroyed Cortex Vortex falling to Earth
- Can endure being used as a living weapon and snowboard
- Can function well without his brain
- Turned Atlantis into a racing track
- Survived being launched hundreds of feet into the air by the Matrix Chamber
- Defeated Madame Amberley, Tikimon Totem God, Uka Uka, Victor and Moritz
- Served in Vietnam
Wiz: But for a normal human, Cortex is pretty durable. For instance, he was launched hundreds of feet into the air by the aforementioned Matric Chamber, its blast radius appearing to cover at least a mile of land. This can be compared to how Crash was only blasted away by 23 crates of TNT, which given their size, could potentially level a city block. Cortex has survived a fall that involved him crashing through the ground into caverns and into spikes which he claimed broke his fall. He has also survived the destruction of his space station and the resulting atmospheric re-entry, survived the explosion of his castle and was frozen in the antarctic.
Boomstick: He can take some good blows from being used as a livng bludgeoning weapon or a snowboard enduring body-sliding down a rocky ground. Even groin-sliding on a metal rail. OW! His real weakness is his own ego; believing himself to be the greatest genius mind in the world, he doesn’t listen to feedback from his assistants, lacks common sense, and can often be real stubborn, prone to making impulsive or downright idiotic decisions. Take for example when he traveled back to the past to stop himself from ever creating Crash. But his past self didn't listen and decided that Crash's first order would be to... destroy himself. Wiz: After endangering his timeline, Cortex was banished to the end of the universe, which he was actually ok with.
Boomstick: Y'see, think about other videogame villains. While they keep trying to succeed in their goals despite the constant beatdowns, Cortex was sick of the decades of constant fighting. To him, his rivalry with the darned bandicoot was an endless cycle. A curse. Another round of mockery and embarrassment he had already faced as a child brought onto him by a higher game company power. He was just done and wanted the endless scuffle to end.
Wiz: Thankfully, he got the peace and quiet he wanted. Well, until the next game.
(Both hosts laugh.)
Wiz: Why do I feel like a hypocrite?
Interlude[]
Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set and we ran the data through all possibilities.
Boomstick: It's time for a DEATH BATTLE!!!
Before FIGHT[]
On Cortex Island, the castle of the nefarious villain, Dr. Neo Cortex, stands tall. The sun was setting. A blimp with a robot zombie's face on the front is flying towards the island. It stops overhead of the large terrain of garbage and piles of useless scrape metal below. Shortly after, arms burst from out of the ground. The full bodies of Zombies burrow out into the open, their mouths gaping open and arms held out. All of them either groaning or demanding their one desire: BRAINS.
A camera robot flies to the front of the blimp. Its lens projects a hologram of Neo Cortex's head, speaking to the master of the Zombies himself: Dr. Zomboss.
Cortex: I assume these belong to you? You are in Cortex territory! Take your pets and get out!
Zomboss: [maniacal laugh] FOOL! You clearly are not aware of the danger you are in!
Cortex's jaw was open as he was taken aback by Zomboss's insult.
Cortex: YOU call ME a FOOL?!?! N. Gin! Release security!
FIGHT[]
On ground level, several of Cortex's Lab Assistants charge out of the castle, all of them wielding their own form of weaponry. They rush at the Zombies. Three of the Assistants sliced some Zombies with their swords, bisecting their torsos or cutting their limbs and heads off.
Assistants held shields to block their partners and hold off the incoming Zombies.
An Assistant riding in a UFO flies above some Zombies and electrocutes them, though none of them dying. Another Zombie in Gymnastics clothing pole-jumps and kicks the Assistant out of the UFO. The Zombies rush at the Assistant and rips it apart, limb from limb.
The barricaded Assistants did not notice a Zombie of the digging variant burrowing out of the ground behind them. It ducks back into its hole before a Zen Zombie charges a yellow energy ball in his hands. When it was fully made, he rolls the projectile towards the Assistants as if it was a bowling ball. It explodes on impact, sending destroyed parts of the Assistants flying into the air.
Another Assistant holding a rifle is destroyed by a cannonball fired by the Pirate Zombie - Captain Deadbeard.
From behind, he is transformed into a sheep by an Assistant wearing a wizard costume. The former Captain's Parrot Pal flies off its back and shoots a laser from its parrot pulse (its cybernetic eye). It hits the Assistant in the face three times; it falls backwards, dead.
Seeing the fight down below from his castle window, Cortex takes action; he turns to his three colleagues - N. Brio, N. Gin and Nina Cortex.
Cortex: [grunts] You three! Just get whatever GOOD weaponry we have, call in friends, and destroy them all!
Dr. Zomboss was still in his blimp, laughing hysterically at his victory until...
Zomboss: AH!
Something fired at his window. Said attack was from a biplane flying towards the blimp, piloted by Fake Crash. He is joined by another mutant pilot - his sister Fake Coco, whom was hitting her drumsticks on the biplane to make music. Luckily, several other biplanes piloted by the mutant rats, the Ratnicians, fly into the scene to join the doppelganger duo. All of them fire at the blimp. One of the Ratnicians shakes a coconut and throws it at the blimp; it explodes, but doesn't even faze the blimp.
Back on ground level, the Electric Slide Zombie transforms her body into a ball of electricity. She flies through multiple Lab Assistants, who were producing electricity from their bodies. This disabled all of the robots, then they were bombarded with rapid-fire bolts that were shot out by turrets planted by the Engineer Zombie. The remaining Lab Assistants fall backwards, dead.
Suddenly, both special Zombies are shot multiple times, bullet holes left in their torsos, but they still stand... until they were shot in the head. They both blink before falling over, unconscious. The shots came from two mutated Potoroo gangsters, who were joined by their boss - Pinstripe Potoroo.
Pinstripe: Good shots, boys! But there's more targets!
Foot Soldier Zombies (basically Zombies dressed like army men) aim their rifles at the potoroos, but were stopped from firing due to Ripper Roo jumping on each of their helmets, lowering them over the Zombies' eyes and blinding them. The rambunctious kangaroo was laughing hysterically while doing so.
Ripper Roo also kicks away two Imps pointing their blasters. They land at the feet of Dingodile.
'''Dingodile: Bring me some sauce...'''
He points his flamethrower at the undead shorties...
'''Dingodile: ...I'm making barbeque!'''
...and burns them!
More Zombies were crushed by a rolling boulder that rolled into the scene. The one who pushed it was the brute of Cortex's army: Koala Kong. A Football Zombie runs in and tackles Koala Kong to the ground. This other Battlegrounds Zombie points his football cannon at Kong's head, but he was saved by Cortex's second brute ally: Tiny Tiger, who stabbed the Sports Zombie through the head with his trident, which produced electricity that caused the Zombie's head to bubble and then explode. They both laugh as Tiny helps Koala Kong back up, but their entertained states are cut short when a Wizard Zombie flies past them; his staff's orb illuminates a purple light, transforming the giant tiger and koala into little, helpless goats. More zombies come in and start EATING them! The poor little Goats scream in agony.
In another part of the battlefield, Rilla Roo drove in with a tank, the Komodo Brothers hanging onto opposite sides. A horde of more Zombies approach them, many of them holding various objects in front of them to act as shields and/or wearing various headgear also for protection. The Wizard Zombie splashes all of them with Invincibility potions. Rilla fires the tank's gun, but the Zombies keep moving, unscratched. Komodo Moe throws his swords at their heads, but the Zombies still stand due to being protected by their headgear. His brother, Komodo Joe, looks at Moe with a stern look.
A more buff Zombie dressed up as a 1980s Action Hero, complete with shades and a cocky smile, slowly walks into the scene in a dramatic fashion. He was holding some kind of bow. The Zombies turn and step aside to make way for him. The Wizard Zombie throws another potion at the supposed hero, then transforms into a two-eyed star inside of a floating orb and teleports on top of the Zombie's head. Rilla points the tank's gun at this Rambo-wanna-be, who points his bow at said tank, but he was holding it as if it were a rocket launcher. The tank fires a shot, but the supposed 1980s hero was unharmed. And before the three mutants could react, actual rockets were launched from the Hero's bow!
They destroy the tank, and Rilla Roo and the Komodo Brothers were launched into the air, screaming.
Meanwhile, Pinstripe and his Potoroo Gang are shooting at an Imp inside of its Z-Mech. It retaliates by firing missiles at them, sending them flying.
The Scientist Zombie teleports into the scene. He uses his gun to shoot a purple energy beam at the smooched Zombies, who pop back up in their normal, fixed forms thanks to the healing formula.
The Scientist Zombie then "zooms" (as in teleport) beside the burnt Imps and readies his healing gun. But a giant, floating, mechanical hand smashes him into the ground. It was N. Gin controlling the "Cortexbot"; its floating metallic head smiling wickedly.
'''N. Gin: Like Doctor Cortex said - get out of his property!!!'''
Also landing onto the battlefield was Nina Cortex, inside her very own spider-like mech suit - the Arachnina.
And standing just underneath her was Nitrus Brio, drinking a strange green fluid from a flask. He starts to shake and twitch before growing in size and muscle; Brio had transformed into a hulk-like monster!
A more buff version of the Pirate Zombie - Captain Smasher - shoots a cannonball from his hand-held canon at the Cortexbot, pushing it back. N. Gin retaliates by slamming the floating fist down onto the undead Captain, crushing him.
The Zen Zombie jumps to reach the Cortexbot's head and readies another energy ball. But that pesky Ripper Roo kicks the Zombie Sensei away.
Foot Soldier Zombies shoot their rifles at the Arachnina, but the Arachnina's armored surface was thankfully (in Nina's case) impenetrable. Nina snickers at this failure. One of the Foot Soldiers uses his rocket launcher to blast himself into the air. He points his rifle at Nina's exposed head, prompting her to press the red button on the robot's console. The robot drops to a six-legged position and fires laser beams at each of the Zombies. All of them are burnt and charred; they blink before turning to dust.
The Monsterized N. Brio was trying to punch the Gargantuar, but the brute was blocking with the telephone pole. He swings the pole, hitting Brio across the face, sending him back.
Back in the air, Zomboss is too busy with the enemy biplanes' shooting and exploding coconuts to help with his army.
Zomboss: Hopefully, those brain-gluttons are handling themselves. I CAN'T WORK WITH THESE DESTRACTIONS!
Someone jumps off their biplane and lands on top of Dr. Zomboss's blimp. It was the enemy mastermind, himself: Dr. Neo Cortex! Wait, no. His robot doppelganger: Robo-Cortex!
This, though, Zomboss wasn't aware of when checking his radar, and thus seized the opportunity of destroying his enemy.
Zomboss: Ah, there you are.
He presses a green button with the picture of a gear on it.
Robo-Cortex was using his heat-vision to blast at the blimp's iron surface until he was interrupted by the sound of a hatch opening behind him. A Robotic Zombie wearing military attire climbs out and points his wrist blaster at its equally robotic enemy. But Robo-Cortex bisects the Robo-Zombie. Both halves fall down.
The robotic clone of its master lets out a mechanized laugh, but again is interrupted when a pod falls from out of the sky and lands behind him. He turns and is startled to see another Robo-Zombie step out. It points both arms at Robo-Cortex, but he knows the drill - he again shoots his laser... but the robot soldier wasn't sliced in half? Now the Robo-Zombie delivered not only its own flames onto Robo-Cortex, but its own laser vision. There is no visual of what happens to Robo-Cortex, but the audio of him screaming could be heard off screen.
Soon, more Robo-Zombies fly in (via rocket boots) around Dr. Zomboss's blimp. They shoot their lasers at the enemy biplanes, making them explode on impact. That includes Fake Crash and Fake Coco, who both fall to the surface. Both scream at their impending death.
All the Robo-Zombies land on the battlefield below and start blasting their lasers at numerous enemies: the Potoroo gangsters had their armed hands cut off and they scream in agony before being decapitated, Rilla Roo and both Komodo Brothers, who were hanging onto a tree, had their torsos severed from their legs, exposing their intestines, and FINALLY Ripper Roo is taken out when a Robo-Zombie simply blasts him in the head.
Back in Cortex’s castle, he was anxiously biting his gloved fingers. Behind him, a crack in reality is formed, and from out of the hole comes Cortex’s master - the evil voodoo mask, Uka Uka, and he is angry at the current state of Cortex’s army.
'''Uka Uka: FOOL! NINCOMPOOP! YOU HAVE ALL THIS… ANI-MAN POWER GIVEN TO YOU! BUT THEY’RE BEING OUTCLASSED BY WALKING CORPSES!'''
'''Cortex: But Uka Uka, their weaponry is ridiculous! Literally! Cones for helmets? Look! They have better robot soldiers than mine!'''
The Cortexbot and Arachnina are currently being overpowered by numerous Robo-Zombie lasers.
'''N. Gin (from inside the Cortexbot): HELP! MOMMY!'''
'''Uka Uka: BLAH! I WILL NEED TO BRING IN... THE ELEMENTALS!'''
Back on the battlefield, the Cortexbot had already been forced into the ground, still being bombarded by lasers and flames. But then, an angry, red tiki mask is teleported onto the robot's face. A fiery barrier forms around it and shields it from the Robo-Zombies' firepower. The Cortexbot manifests arms and legs, which were made out of magma. It uses its newly molten limbs to punch and smash the Robo-Zombies. The metal is melted after each robot's defeat.
The Arachnina was smashing Robo-Zombies with its stone fists. The extra strength was due to a grey-orange mask with a square jaw, pointed top, and horns. A couple of Z-Mechs fire missiles at her robot, but the metallic surface turns to hard rock and it slices them with its buzz-saw.
The 1980s Hero Zombie shoots another missile towards Dingodile. But with the help of a fainted-blue mask with puffed up cheeks attached to his face, he was able to blow it back with the help of his leaf blower creating a massive gust of air. The rocket explodes on impact, blowing the Rambo-ish Zombie into pieces.
The monstrous Brio was being beaten by the Gargantuar's telephone pole. A light blue, hourglass-shaped mask teleports on Brio's face, transforming his entire body into water and making the telephone pole pass through him. This provides a opening for Brio to protrude a giant water fist from his torso, launching the Gargantuar into the ocean.
Back in the sky inside Zomboss's blimp, he laughs maniacally as he presses a red button with the picture of a bomb on it.
The liqui-fied monster Brio was the first to notice fireballs falling from the sky. Wa-Wa (the mask Brio is wearing) teleports them out of the scene.
Uka Uka and Dr. Cortex look down from the castle as bombs rain down from the sky onto the island, destroying everyone and everything. The castle itself was starting to shake.
Cortex: NOPE!
He takes out his portal remote and presses the red button, opening a portal for Cortex and Uka Uka to escape through.
Far way from the island, N. Brio steps on the button that powers his laser beam, which is aimed upwards. The death ray's laser shoots towards Zomboss's blimp, bisecting the airship. Dr. Zomboss is sent downwards screaming while inside the Airship's half with the Zombie face.
In space, Cortex's space station, the Cortex Vortex, floats over Earth. Inside, Cortex and Uka Uka exits the portal.
Cortex: (sighs) Is it over?
Uka Uka: Your army and lair are destroyed. So, yes. It's OVER.
Suddenly, the space station shook. It is revealed that outside, the Zombie Superhero, Super Brainz, was holding onto the Cortex Vortex's blaster and tilting entire space station. He then starts to spin the entire space station around. Eventually, he lets go and launches the Cortex Vortex straight towards Earth. On the inside, Cortex and Uka Uka are screaming in a panic until they are teleported away.
The evil scientist and voodoo mask are teleported in the Mesozoic Era (the time of dinosaurs) by the Master of Time himself, Dr. Nefarious Tropy.
Cortex: Oh. It's you...
Tropy: Not so great seeing you either, Doctor Cortex. Now you see those Zombies in the distance.
N. Tropy points towards a horde of cavemen Zombies dancing in the distance to a remix of their old zombie music, which is being played by the Disco Zombie - also known as "Olds Cool" - at his DJ station.
Cortex: AH! So we kill them in the past so they aren't around in the future!
Tropy: NO. Somehow, they are immune to changes in the past. "Killing" them here--if that is even possible--won't do anything.
Cortex thinks for a moment, then gets an idea.
Cortex: Then if I can't kill them, I CAN MAKE THEM WORK FOR ME!
Cortex takes out what appears to be a boombox from his lab coat, then rides towards the partying horde on his hoverboard.
The Zombies stop dancing. They turn their attention to this random yellow-skinned scientist that just crashed their party.
'''Zombie: Brains?'''
'''Cortex: All Zombies, say hello to your new overlord!'''
He throws the boombox on the ground, which transforms into a some weird machine with "eyebrows" and an open mouth with teeth - the Matrix Chamber.
The continuing music from Olds Cool's station was attracted to this radio-like contraption. When there was enough rhythm, the Matrix Chamber releases it back out in a wave of sound. The music manipulates the Zombies' - including Olds Cool's - so-called "minds". They all kneel for Neo Cortex.
Only one Zombie was not surrendering their loyalty. Another Zombie Hero of scientific attire and goggles named "Professor Brainstorm" walks out from the horde. It is revealed he is wearing earplugs to block out the hypnotic music.
Cortex: (groans) Great. I assume you are the leader?
The Professor shakes his head before placing his hands on his head. All of the hypnotized Zombies stand, angry. They run towards the Matrix Chamber and start hitting it with their clubs, breaking it until the music stops.
Cortex: NO! DARN YOU!
Cortex takes out his blaster and starts shooting at the heads of the approaching Zombies. When the blasts hit their mark, the Zombies fall down, unconscious. Professor Brainstorm remains in place. At his feet, a hole in the Earth opens. A giant hand pokes out, before the full body of The Smash digs up to the surface. The luchador Zombie attempts to punch Cortex, but the attack is countered by the punch of a mutant elephant wearing boxing gloves -- a Titan. The Zombie Hero proved to be stronger, however, as the impact exploded the Titan elephant's entire arm. The Smash then grabs the Titan and bites down on its head.
Cortex shields his eyes.
Olds Cool jumps from behind his station before ripping off his shirt to reveal himself to be Electric Boogaloo! He shoots an electric bolt towards Cortex, but he forms a force field around himself and blocks the blast. Uka Uka appears next to him, and summons another Titan, this one too being an electricity-conductor. It shoots electricity from its hands, but Electric Boogaloo does the same. And now it was a struggle between the two opposing beams of energy. Cortex rolls his eyes before throwing a mine at Boogaloo. It explodes, blasting the DJ into pieces.
Climbing out of the hole was Dr. Zomboss, finally back to resume his ordeal with Cortex.
Zomboss (raises his hand towards Professor Brainstorm): Don't ask.
Cortex: You're the leader. (aims his blaster at Zomboss)
Zomboss: Correct! And I am also your DOOM!
Zomboss takes out his own raygun and points it at Cortex's nose. Cortex swiftly smacks it out of his hand and points his blaster at Zomboss's forehead. Zomboss throws a spider at Cortex's coat. He franticly flails his arms until he gets the arachnid off him. He throws some kind of transparent, purple "Z" at Zomboss's face. This was an item from that Crash party game that is supposed to make people fall asleep. Yet, Zomboss still stood as energetic as a Zombie could be. After blinking three times in confusion, Zomboss takes out what appears to be some black device he held in his hands.
Cortex: (laughs) What are you gonna do? Play games before you die?
Zomboss: CLOSE! But not the fun types. You have caused quite the conundrum. Instead, this device conducts PAIN! UNCONTROLLABLE BURPING! POLYMORPHIC LIGHT ERUP-
Zomboss is sprayed with water. This in turn makes his handheld would've-been torture device short-circuit and die. The thing that caused this was another Titan that looked to be the combination of a whale and elephant.
Zomboss: You've got to be kidding me.
Close by, The Smash was done eating the Mutant Elephant. He turns his attention to the two mad scientists, but Uka Uka vaporizes his head with his laser. The Smash's body goes lifeless.
Uka Uka turns to Dr. Zomboss, readying another laser beam.
Zomboss: YIPE!
Once again (to him), Zomboss is teleported away in a flash.
Uka Uka: WHAT???
Uka Uka attaches himself to Zomboss's face before too vanishing out of the scene.
They appear in the Medieval era, where under the night sky, multiple Titans were battling Zombies wearing Knights armor and wielding swords. A giant parrot breathes fire on a Zombie, melting him down to the ground. But the Zombie's body reforms. Sure, it was now a mass of goo, but still. It swings its sword and decapitates the Titan.
The Zombie Hero, Immorticia, had summoned Zomboss through another hole in the ground. Next to her is vampire/Zombie hybrid Baron Von Bats.
Zomboss: What do you all wa-
Zomboss spots Cortex, Uka Uka and then N. Tropy, who just teleported beside them.
Tropy: I had some fun while you were busy with those Zombies. Isn't mutant and animal evolution extraordinary?
N. Tropy slams his staff on the ground, releasing a powerful wave of energy that sends all of the Titans and Zombies away.
Cortex aims his blaster and shoots at the two Vampire Zombies, who turn into hordes of bats and dodge each shot while flying towards the evil trio. N. Tropy takes out one of his trusty N. Tropy Clocks and turns the hands. This is supposed to stop time, but the ZOMBIE bats continue to fly at normal speeds!
All three villains scream as they shoot their respective projectiles at the surrounding bats. Zomboss, meanwhile, takes out a glass ball containing a strange green gas. He holds a pin in his other hand. He laughs maniacally.
Once again, N. Tropy slams his staff on the ground, transforming the environment into another time era. This was a dessert road highway. Due to the sun's bright presence, the bats comically catch fire. They screech and then fly away.
Zomboss: HEY! COME BA-
The sun shines on Zomboss. He hisses as he covers his face with his arms. Soon, greaser Zombies in their wacky, Zombie-powered vehicles are approaching the scene. 1950's rock music blasts from their radios and speakers. One of the vehicles was a truck hauling Zomboss's Massive Munch Machine (a robot dinosaur with wheels).
One of the Zombies holds his hand out for Dr. Zomboss, who holds his hand out to be catched and driven off.
Tropy: Oh, no you don't!
N. Tropy points his staff at the Zombies' beloved leader, but he is shot in the chest by a ray that came from one of the vehicles that have past by them by now. This causes the Master of Time to shrink down to the size of a bug.
Tropy: WHAT?!? What is this?!?
Dr. Cortex and Uka Uka just laugh at this misfortune.
Another vehicle was making its way down the street. It was a green hovercraft piloted by the legendary alien racer, Nitrous Oxide, and he was angry.
Oxide: GET IN THE BACK!
Cortex (While he and Uka Uka get on the hovercraft): You're in the mood...
Oxide: I know those freaks! They beat me in a race years back!
As the hovercraft drives away, N. Tropy's tiny voice could not be heard as he tries to call out to his "allies".
N. Tropy (high-pitched voice due to tiny size): HEY! FOOLS! COME BACK! HEY!!!
Nitrous's hovercraft catches up to the Zombie vehicles. The one that shot N. Tropy pokes his head out his car, revealing himself to be a Zombie in some type of robotic armor. He aims his wrist-canon at them and starts shooting the same shrinking ray. Causing Nitrous to start maneuvering his vehicle to dodge the ray.
Cortex leans over the seat.
Cortex: For goodness sakes! Use the MISSILES!
He presses a red button on the console. Three missiles appear above the hovercraft and launch towards all the vehicles. They explode on impact, destroying them and sending pieces of scrape and Zombie flying into the air.
The trio race forward through the resulting smoke.
Uka Uka: Good work, Cortex!
Nitrous just rolls his eyes.
Uka Uka: Now where is that scientist?
Zomboss's Massive Munch Machine speeds towards them. They all scream in fear. Cortex and Uka Uka jump out just in time before the hovercraft is lifted by the teeth of the robot dinosaur. Nitrous Oxide is left to be crushed along with his vehicle. Blue blood drips from the robot's mouth.
Zomboss: You're next!
Cortex points his blaster and pulls the trigger. But nothing happens.
Cortex: OH NO! Out of Ammo!
The Massive Munch Machine attempts to eat the two, but Cortex, by pressing a button on his blaster, teleports out of the way, while Uka Uka vanishes. He appears on the robot dinosaur's face.
Zomboss: What are you doing to my baby?! GET OFF!!!
The crushing machine's eyes glow from yellow to purple. Now under the control of Uka Uka, the robot is forced to spin around. Zomboss tries to take control of the vehicle, but the controls were ineffective. Eventually, he flies out of his vehicle due to the rapid spinning... and there was no seat belt. he lands at the feet of the Dr. Cortex, who is holding a mine.
Cortex: There can only be one big-headed scientist in this universe!
Zomboss: Ok Ok (raises his hands, signaling a surrender). I've been had. Let's all just "COOL" down.
A Yeti Zombie wearing a blue mask is standing behind Cortex. It is holding the same glass ball Zomboss had in Medieval Times. The Yeti crushes the ball, releasing the green gas and it spreads across the area. Cortex sniffs the air, turning him into a drooling, mindless... dumb man.
Zomboss: Ahem! "COOL" down!
Brain Freeze the Yeti roars as he raises his hands. They glow blue as the surrounding area starts to freeze, including Uka Uka, who disconnects from the Massive Munch Machine and tries to fly away, but is frozen and falls down to the ground. Zomboss wasn't getting frozen due to shooting his Ultra Toasty, Imp-Powered Heat Ray; the flames are pushing the ice magic back.
The Cortex Vortex appears in space, hovering over the Earth. Inside is N. Tropy, now full size again. But he seems weak; he starts kneeling down, his body is fading in and out of existence, and he is hanging onto his staff with what little strength he has left.
Tropy: My... power... My time is... running out. This... is all I can do.
N. Tropy starts pressing buttons on the Planetary Minimizer's computer. The machine's beam glows red before shooting its beam at the Earth.
The planet starts to shrink.
Back on the planet, Dr. Zomboss is holding a knife and fork. He is drooling as he prepares to stab his knife into the frozen Cortex's head.
Zomboss: I do love frozen brain!
N. Tropy holds the Earth.
He looks out the window at the Sun.
Tropy: Hope... your grateful... Doctor.
Hold on. Is the Sun... getting closer?
This distracts N. Tropy, allowing for the Earth to fly out of his hand and out the window. The Sun collides with the Cortex Vortex, incinerating it and presumably with N. Tropy inside.
It turns out all the solar system's planets and present stars including the Sun are circling around a Gigantic Zombie head wearing a horned helmet. This was universe-devourer known as Huge-Gigantacus!
He holds the Earth and blows on it.
The heavy, hot breath of this god-like entity not only melts the ice where Zomboss and Cortex are, but also blows away the green gas that decreased Cortex's intelligence. Cortex turns back to normal, now fully aware of his surroundings. He throws the mine at Brain Freeze. It explodes, sending the Yeti Zombie flying far away.
Uka Uka, also unfrozen, was awoken by the explosion. But he is sucked in by a black hole before he could do anything.
A purple portal opens. Walking out was two more of those Zombie Heroes: Super Brainz drinking a soda and Impfinity, who clones himself, creating two duplicates of himself.
Zomboss: It seems you are alone, "Doctor"!
All the present Zombies laugh, further infuriating Dr. Neo Cortex.
Cortex: I AM DOCTOR NEO PERIWINKLE CORTEX! NOT SOME... CLOWN! I HAVE BEEN HUMILIATED FOR ABOUT 27 YEARS! NOW I AM DONE! I AM NOT LETTING A ZOMBIE BEST ME WHEN I AM TIRED OF THIS SHTICK!!!
Cortex takes out the Make-Another-Ator. He turns the gadget around, and scans himself. This creates two more clones of Cortex. The Impfinities point and jump up and down at their same trick, like a group of children exciting over something exciting.
One of the clones drinks a liquid from out of a flask. Similar to Brio's formula, Cortex starts growing in muscle and size, becoming a Mutant.
Mutant Cortex: I will take the Super Man.
He points at Super Brainz, who seemed flattered at the name he was called. The Super Hero Zombie blitzes Cortex and flies him into the sky.
The other Cortex clone reloads his blaster. He eyes the Impfinities.
Cortex clone: I'll take the little ones.
He runs out of the scene, all three Impfinities pursuing him and giggling wickedly like children.
That left the two mad, big-brained mad scientists.
Cortex: That leaves you and me, "Doctor".
Dr. Zomboss smiles evilly as he places his finger on his watch. Dr. Cortex presses the button on his remote.
Both of their respective battle robots are teleported into the area:
the Zombot 1000...
and the Cortex-Bot.
Both are teleported into the control stations located inside the robots' heads. The Cortex-Bot opens its chest, revealing the four, trapped Quantum Masks.
The Cortex-Bot takes the first punch, which the Zombot 1000 blocks with its arm. I then breathes fire on the Cortex-Bot's head. The blue Quantum Mask, Lani-Loli, is electrocuted. The Cortex-Bot uses his power and turns its head transparent like a ghost, allowing the fire to phase through. This allows the Cortex-Bot to shoot missiles at the Zombot, knocking it back.
Zombot's voice comes from the speaker inside the robot's mouth.
Zomboss: OW! Cheater!
The Zombot aims its arm out, ejecting missiles out from its arm and launching them forward.
The Cortex clone is dodging Impfinities trying to leap on him or punching him. He shoots his blaster and turns one of the super-powered Imps into a gelatinous, green platform. Cortex jumps on the bouncy square to launch himself into the air and shoot the other two Impfinities in their heads, knocking them down unconscious.
He lands on his feet on the ground, standing proud in front of his defeated foes.
A purple ball of energy that rained down from the sky barely misses his foot, which makes him jump in fear.
In the air, the mutated Cortex, who is flying thanks to the anti-gravity device on his wrist, punches out a purple fireball thrown by Super Brainz. He flies towards Super Brainz who spreads his arms out. When Cortex was close enough, he slams both hands on the sides of Cortex's head, creating a shockwave. Cortex roars in agony as he holds his head in pain. He then starts to spin around, shooting out more balls of his own purple energy. But Super Brainz dodges each projectile. He flies towards Cortex, readying a punch. Then... his stomach starts to rumble. When he was close to Cortex, Super Brainz profusely burps in his face, releasing a mighty stench. This kills Cortex, causing his corpse to fall downwards.
Super Brainz waves goodbye at his dead foe.
The giant corpse lands on the Cortex Clone, squashing him.
Cortex clone: OW.
Back in the mecha fight on ground level, the Zombot 1000 creates a fireball and iceball in his hands, then throws them at the Cortex-Bot. Kupuna-Wa is electrocuted for the robot to use her power of time, slowing down the elemental balls for the Cortex-Bot to simply step to the side and letting them past.
The power of time was used again to: the Cortex-Bot speeds towards the Zombot and rapidly punches the robot.
Like this:
Time soon returned to normal.
The Zombot 1000 was knocked down, but unscratched. The robot gets back up. The Cortex-Bot readies another punch, but the speaker in the Zombot's mouth released a powerful soundwave that launches the Cortex-Bot back. The Zombot then launches more missiles at the enemy robot, which seemed to be too heavy to get back up. Inside its head, Cortex presses a button on the console. This causes the Cortex-Bot's head and hands to detach from its torso. The superior missiles destroy the torso, releasing the Quantum Masks, whom are then sucked into another black hole.
The giggling of Huge-Gigantacus could be heard.
The Cortex-Bot's head is floating face-to-face with the full-body of the Zombot 1000.
Zomboss's voice: NOW you are alone, human.
The Zombot 1000 makes its way towards the Cortex-Bot head. Both hands rocket forward, but the Zombot catches and crushes them.
Cortex: I've lost to a Bandicoot... I WON'T LOSE TO ANOTHER SCIENTIST!
The Cortex-Bot opens its mouth wide, protruding a giant, nuclear missile. Cortex presses the green button on the robot's console, launching the missile. Its fired at the Zombot's head. Zomboss braces for impact.
The entire area is devastated. The wrecked head of the Cortex-Bot lays in the massive crater that was the result of the atomic blast.
Dr. Neo Cortex crawls from out of the broken glass that used to be the robot's eye. He was covered in ash, but other than that, he was alright. He readies his blaster and looks around his environment for any other surprises.
None. No more Zombies. (That Super Brainz guy might've flown off.)
Cortex: I-I... I did it. I won? ME?! I WON?!?
Cortex jumps in celebration and laughs.
Cortex: I WON! I WON! KNOW THIS WORLD! THE NUMBER 1 GREATEST, EVIL SCIENTIST IS NONE OTHER THAN DOCTOR-
Zomboss's voice: EDGAR GEORGE ZOMBOSS!
A glowing yellow orb with eyes flies into Cortex's body. First, Cortex feels a pain in his chest. He clutches the place where his heart is rapidly beating. Then his eyes roll back into his head and he falls face first into the ground.
Dr. Cortex slowly sits back up. Something was wrong about him: his skin was green, his eyes were a dirty yellow as if he had Jaundice, veins were visible on his head, and the "N" on his forehead was turned sideways to look like the letter "Z". Cortex (?) bursts out into hysterical laughter. It sounded... ALOT LIKE ZOMBOSS'S LAUGH!
Conclusion[]
(Both hosts look in shock at the ending on screen)
Boomstick: Well... that was a win.
Wiz: Now first, we need to look at each of their armies. Cortex's army did have their own means of firepower, robots and some magic to defend against the Zombies. No matter how immortal they appear in their other pieces of media (except the Gargantuar being evidently the toughest of them all) we can't forget how the Zombies could be defeated in their original game: They can still be burnt and incinerated, shot or blown to pieces, and even hypnotized.
Boomstick: Still, the Zombies could regenerate. Even when melted down, they can still keep fighting. And if their bodies are destroyed, NO PROBLEM!; their souls will just find and possess another.
Wiz: "But what about the Masks and N. Tropy?" you might ask. Well, the Zombies have fought the gnomes who are beyond time while whereas N. Tropy just knows how to manipulate it and, fun fact, actually predicted the Plants and Zombies would come for them.
Boomstick: And the Zombies are immune to changes in time or any other reality-breaking, including the SpaceTime continuum being broken and changes to their past won't affect their future or present. So, overall, there was nothing N. Tropy, Kupuna-Wa, or the "omnipotent god-like" Uka Uka could do. Also helps that the Zombies have something of a higher power that can rule the universe itself: Huge-Gigantacus, who can spawn in helpful materials like a black hole to clear out the battlefield, or ways of transportation via portals, meteors, means for the Zombies to transform and gain new powers, you get the point.
Wiz: And it's not like every Zombie is dumb. They have great teamwork and advantages against Cortex's army. Such as a wider military or war-based arsenal of their own, and thanks to either the Scientist Zombie's healing formula or Zomboss's aid from his blimp, the Zombies have a way of healing.
Boomstick: And with the help from Professor Brainstorm's telepathy giving out thoughts to the mind, the Zombies could be taken out of the Mind Chamber's hypnosis. So this can work against Cortex's headsets, too. Rustbolt's shrink ray could be effective if characters present including Cortex weren't fast enough to dodge electricity (29:40) or lasers (0:33). Brain Freeze could simply freeze everyone. The Titans especially are limited to a certain power, where the Zombie Heroes actually have multiple superpowers. Super Brainz is more skilled and versatile than Cortex's Titan/Mutated Form, which he only had for a short time during his boss fight in Crash: Mind Over Mutant. But we need to talk about what Dr. Cortex had against Dr. Zomboss.
Wiz: We'll give Cortex this: he is more experienced with fighting in-person on the battlefield whether by himself, as a skylander, or alongside Crash...
Boomstick: Did we mention he fought in Vietnam?
Wiz: ...while Zomboss mainly acts as support for his Zombies and only comes into combat if the need arises, never without being accompanied by his Zombies or inside his inventions, mostly his Zombots.
Boomstick: But while both mad scientists have had their embarrassing moments, Dr. Cortex has consistently proven to be the most brash, being too stubborn and occasionally hot-headed to plan his schemes ahead of time, leaving behind flaws.
Boomstick: While Dr. Zomboss uses the environment when in war and take his past mistakes to heart and build on his upcoming plans. That's how he was able to not only create the most powerful of his Zombots, but came SO close to taking over the world. Or he DID depending on the timeline.
Boomstick: Also, there was nothing Cortex could do against the Muddlegas or being frozen by Brain Freeze or Cold Crystal; he didn't escape from ice before.
Wiz: Dr. Neo Cortex and his army tried their best, yet they became more additions to the dead in this battle between death and life.
Boomstick: He just didn't have the "Neo-ne" of the means to be the "Zom-boss" of this battle.
Wiz: The winner is Dr. Zomboss.
