As a personification, Anonymous was created on 4chan sometime before 2006. An
early appearance of Anonymous is in the flash movie Sageman [1], where Anonymous is shown fighting
Sage man. Another flash movie also includes Anonymous, and was uploaded to Newgrounds on January 21
2006 [2].
The appearance of Anonymous is believed to have been inspired by The Son of
Man, a painting by René Magritte.The green color of Anonymous' skin may have been based off the
green apple covering most of the man's face
