*TeethClenchedTeamwork: The organization isn't exactly a unified front. While the fanatics like Thunderbolt, Stone, and Cassia get along well enough, the ones who joined purely to build up their own power frequently butt heads with each other and the aforementioned fanatics. And thats not even taking into account the members who were press-ganged into joining like Clove and Cortez.

[[VideoGame/JetSetRadio A tech-obsessed graffiti gang]] that was recruited into the organization by Cassia.

* AdaptationalVillainy: Barring the time they were MechaMooks in ''Future'', the Noise Tanks weren't evil in ''JSR'' just a rival gang. Here they've willingly joined up with the Egg Bosses.
* TheFriendNobodyLikes: Most of the other groups associated with the Bosses think they're weirdos. Even Clove, who's technically their superior, is creeped out by them.

[[folder:Metal Sonic]]
[[folder:Snively Robotnik '''(Unmarked Spoilers!!)''']]
The nephew of Julian Kintobor a.k.a.
Dr. Eggman’s ultimate creation. The robot copy Robotnik of Sonic targets Sally for elimination after learning about her Mobius, Snively was formerly the doctor's right-hand man, punching bag, and would-be usurper, roles he would continue to fulfill under Robo-Robotnik/Dr. Eggman as he sought to get rid of both him and the truth behind Freedom Fighters to take the creation of world for himself. After the Super Genesis Wave hit, Snively was reset like many others, but Ixis Naugus hunted down his reality.counterpart on Earth and had him brought to New Mobotropolis in order to restore his pre-SGW self, having need for his technological ability for his own plans...


Added DiffLines:

* InsufferableGenius: He knows that Naugus brought him back because he needed his technological skills and there was no way he was going to get Eggman involved in this little plan, and this has given him quite the inflated ego to his importance. He actually manages to hack into Sally's systems and incapacitate her during the throne room battle, but he spends so much time talking that Nicole is able to overcome the hack and then blow up the computer he was working from.
* MythologyGag: His new appearance is that of the post-SGW Archie continuity Snively, complete with fully-bald dome and a BeardOfEvil, as this is the body of his rebooted self.
* SmugSnake: He views himself as being an ''equal'' to Ixis Naugus simply because his technological skills are essential to the wizard's plans, not realizing (or at least willfully blinding himself to) the simple fact he's just the best and most controllable option. Sally even notes that's he's still the same arrogant little weasel he was back on Mobius.

* TheLostLenore: To Sally given he's been rebooted without any memories of his Mobius self, including of their relationship.
* TheParagon: Whether on Mobius or Earth, Sonic is seen as the pinnacle of heroism for leading the charge against Dr. Eggman and any other villains showing up, having inspired and lifted up so many others along the way. [[spoiler:When Sally arrives in New Mobotropolis and sees the tyrant state Naugus has turned it into, she's ''furious'' that the resistance fighters hadn't attempted to contact him since she knows from the stories she's heard from this universe's inhabitants that this Sonic, even without memories of Mobius, would have dropped everything to charge right in and kick Naugus off his high horse to save them.]]
* PutOnABus: As he's currently on [[VideoGame/SonicFrontiers Starfall Islands]] dealing with [[HeroOfAnotherStory another crisis]], he's simultaneously both out of the way of the other villains working their own machinations and a major goal of Team Freedom to reach, which also gives the latter the time to shine foiling the former in his stead.

* {{Foil}}: To the deceased [[ComicBook/SonicTheHedgehogIDW Dr. Starline]], another would-be Eggman AscendedFanboy and exceptionally-skilled scientist/engineer with an ego.

The biggest difference between the two would be how exactly they view Eggman: Thunderbolt's admiration is tempered by the knowledge that she would only ever be a loyal and valued subordinate at best and she ''welcomes'' that position, while Starline despite his admiration ultimately wanted to be seen not just as Eggman's top minion, but his ''equal'' [[spoiler:and his inability to get that drives a wedge between them, their falling-out, Starline's attempts to "correct" it, and his UndignifiedDeath after being beaten by Eggman]]. This is best seen in their interactions with Metal Sonic: Thunderbolt spends her time gushing over him while repairing and reattaching his damaged arm and openly admits that said repairs are nothing to what Eggman would do but that she hopes they will suffice for now, while Starline viewed Metal Sonic as a rival for the doctor's attention.

Added DiffLines:

* GreaterScopeVillain: Even discounting how his actions resulted in the Super Genesis Wave rebooting the multiverse, his tyranny over Mobius and carrying on the work of the original Robotnik of Mobius casts a long shadow over all of the Archie Sonic cast, in particular his roboticization of Sally Acorn and her ongoing efforts to come to terms with it.
* HatedByAll: ''No one'' liked Robo-Robotnik, even discounting him being responsible for the CosmicRetcon of their multiverse that killed and reset so many of their loved ones, for his cruelty and sadism ruling over the world. Everyone in the current universe who learns about him immediately hates him too, even the likes of Metal Sonic and Phage as the current Eggman's creations since they refuse to [[YouAreNotMyFather acknowledge a creator who cared nothing for even his greatest works]].
* LackOfEmpathy: Something repeatedly emphasized is Robo-Robotnik's inability to care for anyone other than himself, not even his own creations that he would [[YouHaveFailedMe destroy and refuse to rebuild]] once he decided they weren't what he wanted. Metal Sonic and Phage refer to him as the "inferior" Doctor after receiving knowledge of what happened to the multiple disposable Metal Sonics as well as the fate of his A.I.'s, and Antoine explicitly finds it hard to accept that the current Eggman would care enough about [[MagnumOpus Metal Sonic]] to refuse to use him as a suicide bomber.
* PredecessorVillain: Serves this role to the current Dr. Eggman of the rebooted universe, as his actions are how he even came about. His horrific actions also obviously color how the Archie Sonic cast view the current Eggman.
* {{Sadist}}: After roboticizing Sally, he made sure to [[ForcedToWatch make her watch and be conscious the whole time he's "modifying" her]] in order to draw out her horror and realization she'll never be able to become flesh and blood again without her original parts.

* YouAreNotMyFather: Similarly to Metal Sonic, she hates the Mobius Eggmans and views them as unworthy next to her "father" despite them being his AlternateSelves due to their lack of care for their supposedly-most prized creations.

*DramaticIrony: Chapter 29 has her declare that Eggman hasn't dealt with anyone like her before, completely unaware of Sage's existence.



* BreakTheCutie: The New Mobotropolis arc was this for her. [[spoiler:Her big speech get rebuffed by an angry mob. She sees the memorial of the people lost to the SGW. Learns that she isn't considered a person and is more like an EmptyShell to fill in for the lost Archie cast. Eventually, the guilt of her supposed cost of existence culminates in a terrifying existential nightmare and ''Whisper'' of all people is the one that winds up comforting her. She perks up afterwards]].

* AndThenWhat: Ultimately what makes her knowledge of the Pre-SGW world useless after the reboot. Not only is she not familiar said world, her casually breaking the bad news to the cast isn't exactly a good idea, as shown with Sally and Nicole's poor reactions to Silver's reveal.
* BadassInDistress: [[spoiler:Got herself captured covering the rest of Team Freedom and company's escape courtesy of a gang up by multiple Egg Bosses. Chapter 29 reveals that she is strapped to a machine and is under constant sedation]].

*HazyFeelTurn: In a stark contrast to their original portrayal in Archie, the whole team has fallen under this due to their shadiness and refusal to work with the Restoration or the outside world in general. To list their actions so far:
** They still fight against the tyranny of King Naugus. It is later revealed that they are also sending external aid to the New Mobotropolis Freedom Fighters and giving Jules and Bernadette supplies to survive in their hideout. However, they refuse to directly co-operate beyond that and keep a lot of info and secrets to themselves.
** They (primarily Elias) refer to the IDW cast as "Genesis Births" to supposedly sort out the rebooted Archie cast from them instead of their names, not unlike Naugus who call them "Shades" to dehumanize them.
** In the [[spoiler:Mina Moongoose retrieval mission, Hershey's second order of action was to ''shoot Mina dead'' when saving her was a failure]].
** During the [[VideoGame/SonicForces Eggman War]], they were in action against Eggman with any chance to ''kill'' Infinite being green-lit.
** While Hershey keeping her true identity a secret is understandable due to the sheer ridiculousness of the truth, this doesn't excuse bugging the Restoration and stealing info as it was revealed later on when Jewel did a full sweep of the HQ.
** Their logic as to why they never try to get the Restoration or even just Sonic himself to directly intervene in New Mobotropolis is to "prevent what happened in here from spreading to the rest of the world".
** Whatever Operation "Brave New World" is. It is apparently something so drastic that it was only kept between Harvey and Elias until Team Freedom entered New Mobotropolis. [[spoiler:Chapter 28 implies that it is something to do with "bringing back the ones who were lost to the SGW" but the cost is apparently something so extreme that it is making their individual members getting second thoughts]].

*EstablishingCharacterMoment: The reunion with his sister at the end of Chapter 29 is this for him. While he is indeed overjoyed to reunite with his sister again, his demeanor ''completely flips'' when Tangle introduces herself. He ''completely ignores'' her and Whisper as if they don't exist while he talks to the others in the room. This understandably baffles Sally to the core, as she never seen her brother act like such a jerk before.



* ItsAllMyFault: Elias fully blames himself for Sally’s robotization and separation from the pre-SGW universe characters.

* PragmaticVillainy: It is revealed by Bunnie in Chapter 29 that he draws the line at killing people, as this is all the motivation Sonic needs to reduce him to a red and purple smear on the wall. Better act like a GoldfishPoopGang to avoid the heat.

* WasItAllALie: [[spoiler:Chapter 29 has her learn that ''she'' was the one who married Antoine in the Pre-SGW world when he talks about his love life in the wine storage. She is understandably furious at the supposed sham as she just opened up to the first person outside the Hooligans who didn't treat her as "Bunnie D'Coolette with a scrambled mind" but as her own person. Antoine manages to cool her down and clear up the misunderstanding in time]].

* JerkassHasAPoint: While he’s extremely abrasive and rude about it, he’s not wrong that Amadeus’ actions to secure Team Freedom’s escape led to the capture of many Freedom Fighters, numbering up to almost ''half'' of their overall forces. He's also right to point out that Amadeus has no real experience in fighting on the frontlines of a guerrilla war campaign and engaging in sabotage, and he should have listened to Hamlin who has more experience in both.

*ItsAllAboutMe: The climax of his argument with Sally at the end of Chapter 29 is summed up with a single ArmorPiercingQuestion:

The only assurance is Nicole's protection, which isn't much.
