The Syndicate
Doctor Zachary

- The Evil Genius: Of The Syndicate making him the Evil Genius of the Sonic Adventure 2 arc.
- Faux Affably Evil: At first look Zachary seems like an well educated and intelligent person, but this serves to hide his sociopathic tendencies. Beneath his calm exterior lies a mad mind with zero empathy for others. He showed no qualms nor regret for the destruction of the Special Zone, an act that killed thousands, maybe even millions of innocent lives. Combined with sadistic mocking of others and you got yourself a real genuine, first-class sociopath.
- Lack of Empathy: Never shows any remorse or guilt for his actions, instead gleefully mocks people who confront him for them. Especially bad here, because his lack of empathy nearly led to the destruction of the floating island and Tikal's death.

- Dragon-in-Chief: Of The Syndicate making him Dragon-in-Chief of the Sonic Adventure 2 arc.
- Energy Being: Until Doctor Zachary completed him using Sonic's DNA he was without a physical form and was pure energy.
- Evil Counterpart: Where as Sonic is arrogant, boastful, and hot tempered, Shadow is humble, polite, and focused, even managing to pull off a Heroic Sacrifice against the heroes in his last scenes.

- The Heavy: He isn't the Big Bad but his actions drive the plot of the Sonic Adventure 2 arc.
- Heroic Sacrifice: Sacrifices himself by using the last of his energy to teleport Robotnik away.
- Killed Off for Real: So far the only Shadow to have actually kicked the bucket, rather than narrowly escaping it or his fate unknown like usually.

- Time Abyss: He existed as an energy being trapped in a abandoned Drakon Bunker for 8000 years.

- Meaningful Name: Vichama is the Incan god of death.
- Necromancer: Summons the souls of his kills as his armies.
- Omnicidal Maniac: Ultimately wants to destroy all life just For the Evulz.
- Physical God: Arguably one of the most powerful and dangerous characters in the entire franchise.
- Really 700 Years Old: More like "Really 8000 Years Old", but who's counting?
- Sadist: He seems to find his job as the God of Death to be too much fun. He simply exists to cause death and misery to others.

The Drakon Empire
The Drakon Empire is an inter-galactic empire that presumably encompasses several planets and species. The centre is Drak, home to a race of fish people called the Drakon people. Society is led by Master Scholar (House of Knowledge), Sister Haggra (House of Magic) and Emperor Brokken (House of War). The Empire's main goal is to relocate their Chaos Emeralds, ancient stones stolen by an old Echidna tribe that contain their store of Chaos energy. With these, they can rule the entire universe.
Tropes for the Drakon Empire as a whole:
Emperor Ko-Dorr is a Drakon, and the former leader of the House of War.
Sister Haggra is a Drakon and the leader of the House of Magic.
Tropes for the Drakon Empire as a whole:
- Alien Invasion: Eight thousand years ago the Drakons invaded Mobius to get the Echidna's Emeralds to store Chaos Energy creating the Chaos Emeralds which the Echidnas stole back which started the Great War between the Drakons and the Echidnas. Currectly the Drakons are trying invade Mobius again using Robotnik as a proxy-ruler.

Emperor Ko-Dorr
In his first appearance in Sonic the Comic, he came into contact with Dr. Robotnik, brought to the Drakon Empire by a Prosecutor. While initially the Drakons were curious as to who had discovered the secrets of the Mobius Ring on Flickies' Island, Ko-Dorr's attention shifted to Sonic the Hedgehog, Robotnik telling the Emperor that the hedgehog was guilty of crimes against the Drakon Empire, through the destruction of a Sentinel. Ko-Dorr and Robotnik thus made a deal: The Drakons would provide Robotnik with resources and transport, and he in turn would deliver the Chaos Emeralds, allowing Ko-Dorr to rule the House of Magic and House of Knowledge in addition to his own House of War, but the first priority was to deal with Sonic. The hedgehog was brought to the House of War and entered into a Trial by Combat against a Knuckles Metallix, Ko-Dorr presiding as judge. When Sonic was victorious, with a little help from Tails, Ko-Dorr saw that the hedgehog was safely returned home, but was left with a promise that the Drakons hadn't seen the last of Sonic.
Later, Sister Haggra revealed to Ko-Dorr and Master Scholar that Sonic was the key to the Drakons obtaining the Chaos Emeralds, but Ko-Dorr was forced to feign ignorance and pretend not to know the hedgehog. The Emperor soon after visited Flickies' Island to bring his plan forward. The intent was to bring Sonic in and interrogate him on the whereabouts of the Emeralds, but the hedgehog wiped out every Drakon invading the Emerald Hill Zone, including a Master Sentinel. To the Emperor's good fortune though, Grimer, switched sides to join the Drakons, claiming to have had enough of working for Robotnik.
In the House of War, Grimer revealed that the Emeralds were indeed on the Floating Island, but warned Ko-Dorr of Knuckles and his Guardian Robots. Pre-occupied with planning his invasion, the Emperor had no interest in dealing with Hobson and Choy, who had defaced his statue, planning to decide on their punishment 'in a year or two.' When the Drakons later invaded the Floating Island, Ko-Dorr remained in touch with Grimer, who was leading the invasion, from the House of War. What happened to him and the other Drakons when Robotnik reshaped the universe is unknown.
Sonic the Comic Online revealed that Ko-Dorr has since been deposed and replaced by the as-yet unseen Emperor Brokken. Ko-Dorr's current whereabouts are unknown.
- Big Bad Triumvirate: With Master Scholar and Sister Haggra, Emperor Ko-Dorr is one of the three rulers of the Drakon Empire.
- The Emperor: The former emperor of the Drakon Empire and formerly one the co-rulers along with Master Scholar and Sister Haggra.
Master Scholar
- "I always think many moves ahead, Sister. Always."
- Big Bad Triumvirate: With Sister Haggra and Emperor Brokken, Master Scholar is one of the three rulers of the Drakon Empire.
Sister Haggra
In her first appearance, she was seen with Master Scholar and Emperor Ko-Dorr using the Vapours of Destiny to reveal who could bring the Chaos Emeralds to the Drakons. Not knowing the identity of Sonic, the figure within the mists, she pressed Scholar and Ko-Dorr for answers, but Scholar knew nothing of Sonic, and Ko-Dorr was forced to lie, saying the off-worlder he'd recently put on trial was taller and purple.
- Big Bad Triumvirate: With Emperor Brokken and Master Scholar, Sister Haggra is one of the three rulers of the Drakon Empire.
- Seer: She can use the Vapours of Destiny to reveal things.
Emperor Brokken
Emperor Brokken is the current leader of the Drakon House of War. He has not made an actual appearance as of yet, but in Sonic the Comic Online Issue 236, Sonic discovered from Drakon civilians that Emperor Ko-Dorr had been deposed sometime between then and his failed attack on the Floating Island in Issue 125. Brokken's handling of Drakon military issues has yet to be witnessed firsthand, but he is likely playing a pivotal role in the Empire's current campaign against Mobius.- Big Bad Triumvirate: With Master Scholar and Sister Haggra, Emperor Brokken is one of the three rulers of the Drakon Empire.
- The Emperor: Of the Drakon Empire and one the co-rulers along with Master Scholar and Sister Haggra.

- Early-Installment Weirdness: In his first appearance, Max was a huge, imposing monitor lizard. Subsequent appearances made him smaller and less intimidating, and after #100 he had a consistent look as a more cartoonishly-evil, thinner lizard.
- The Face: He now acts as the Don's "legitimate" front man of The Family.
- Falsely Reformed Villain: Max Gamble has allegedly gone straight becoming a zone leader and Gamble helping insect refugees from the Special Zone (who are certainly not Family members) out of the goodness of his heart, the truth is that Gamble is working for Don Long-Legs head of The Family.
- He still suffers the watchful eyes of the Freedom Fighters from time to time, but has not been seen doing anything outwardly criminal in front of them - Sonic only saw him in the same room as the Don when the hedgehog himself was a wanted criminal. Max has even helped the Freedom Fighters against Bleed, and worked with them to get Fabian Vane's concert secured.
- The Mafia: He is gangster and now the front man of The Family.

Babylon Rogues
A trio of birds from Mobius who take part in a dangerous race in an attempt to gain entry to the magical island of Babylon. Comprising of Jet the Hawk, Wave the Swallow and Storm the Albatross.
Tropes for the Babylon Rogues as a whole:
A member of the racing trio, the "Babylon Racers", who descended from older racers that had ascended to the island of Babylon.
She is one of the three Babylon Rogues. The bird is the only female member of the team and, presumably, acts as the group's mechanic.
A member of the Babylon Rogues, Storm's brutish nature makes him the muscle of the trio. However, his strength has replaced his intelligence and the bird sounds extremely stupid whenever he talks and simply laughing whenever Jet the Hawk or Wave the Swallow taunts Sonic the Hedgehog or Tails.
Tropes for the Babylon Rogues as a whole:
- Cast Herd: Like the Chaotix, they are rarely seen apart.
- Generation Xerox: Previous three generations of their families had taken part in the race to gain entry in Babylon.
- Small Name, Big Ego: All of them, especially Jet and Wave.
- Smug Snake: Jet (and to some extent the other Rogues) are very overconfident jerks.
Jet the Hawk
Wave the Swallow
- The Smurfette Principle: The only female in the Babylon Rogues.
Storm the Albatross

Grand Chef Whip
The League's leader, and head of the Doctor Robotnik Appreciation Tribe. Easily frustrated at his comrades' shortcomings. While certainly villainous, he's not afraid of abandoning his group when failure rears its ugly head.- Big Bad: Of the League of Super-Evil Villains.
The Leaf
- Easy Impersonation: His similar shape to Tails, as well as his airborne abilities, led people to wrongly assume that Tails had become a criminal, not that The Leaf planned this.
- Impossible Thief
Windy Wallis
Insane ex-weatherwoman. Notably talkative. Wields a miniaturized weather machine and frequently gets into arguments with The Leaf.Tyson Dense
Mad polluter. Dense has armed himself with extendable punching gloves, a red-hot oil gun and several polluto-bombs. He also doesn't seem to be a good traveller, though this may be down to The Leaf's driving or his own "polluto-bombs".Bob
A single Plax, expelled by his creators for not being part of the group mind. This seems to have given him a slight inferiority complex. He's either not particularly clever, or the League just don't deem him important enough to know any of the details.Doctor Genius
Egotistical criminal scientist and the League's newest member. Has elected himself leader in Whip's absense.Fockewulf De Shrike
An assassin from Mobius. The bird is wanted in nine Zones for kidnapping, assassination and sabotage.- Artificial Limbs: He is fitted with a cybernetic arm capable of delivering powerful electric shocks to foes.
Death-Trap
Death-Trap
Death Trap eventually returned in Issue 163, back on the trail of Sonic after Totem Billy recovered from a cold. They discover that Sonic is in an isolated city, but are stopped by Medusa, whose glare turns Prank and Totem Billy into stone. Kalus, already made of stone, heads to attack Medusa, but crumbles into sand after a delayed reaction. Later, Sonic notes that the two stony members of Death Trap won't be hunting him anymore, but comes face to face with a sandy Kalus. Sonic uses this to his advantage, destroying Kalus and using the ensuing sand cloud to defeat Medusa. With that, Death Trap were effectively no more. They've resurfaced alive as of Issue 263.
- Lilliputians: They were only a few microns high, because the planet of Shanazar is the size of an atom but after Shanazar merged with Mobius they became normal size.
Kalus
Click here to see his current appearance.
Kalus was a member of Death-Trap. The bulky man, leader of the gang of three, was made of stone and possessed immense strength and stamina. Along with Prank and Totem Billy, the Shanazar resident was hired by Doctor Robotnik to track down criminal Sonic the Hedgehog.
It is possible that Kalus is still alive if he could rebuild his sandy body. He could, therefore, be in one of the New Zones of Mobius, still tracking down Sonic. In fact, he turned up alive in issue 263, 100 issues since his last appearance!
- Token Good Teammate: Of Death-Trap.
Prank
He later turned up alive to hunt Sonic again.

Other Villians
Super Sonic
- "Just the same as all the rest... you think I'm just a mindless monster, waiting to be tamed... BUT I AM UNCONTROLLABLE HATRED INCARNATE!"
- Adaptational Villainy: Continuing the trend from the from the original comic, Super Sonic is a full blown Ax-Crazy sociopath who wants to destroy the planet rather than just a mere super form of Sonics.
- Batman Gambit: Pulls off serveral of these, with surprising success.
- He knew that the Chaotix would try and stop him once they caught wind of his energy signature, so he deliberately tipped them off to his location as part of his trap for them.
- As Tails figures out, he delayed his attack on the Emerald Hill Zone to lure Knuckles there, knowing the echidna would bring the grey chaos emerald with him in a half baked attempt to stop him and save the Chaotix. Unfortunately for the fox, he wasn't able to warn Knuckles in time.
- Composite Character: Super Sonic takes over the role of Iblis in the Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) adaptation, as the undefeatable monster who destroyed the world in Silver's timeline. He's even referred to by this name.
- Enemy Without: Got separated from Sonic once again after Tails ejected the chaos energy out of the floating island's emerald chamber in an effort to defeat him.
- Energy Being: He is made of Evil Chaos energy.
- Eye Beams: He can still fire beams of Chaos Energy out of his eyes.
- Fatal Flaw: His desire to gather more chaos energy and hatred of Sonic. In the Sonic 06 adaptation, even though he had all the power he needed to destroy the planet, he still fell for Tails' trap with the fake chaos emeralds. All because he couldn't stand the idea of turning back into Sonic.
- Hero Killer: According to Silver, in addition to all the other people he's killed, Tails was killed by Super when he tried to fight him in the bad future.
- Superpowered Evil Side: To Sonic
- Super Mode: He's this to Sonic, but he himself gets one during the Super Sonic Unleashed arc after absorbing enough Chaos Energy from both the Omni-Viewer and the Grey Emerald, his eyes become pure white, his fur becomes messier and shinier and he has a bright yellow aura as well
- Super-Speed: He has Sonic's super speed taken up to eleven.
- Wingding Eyes: His eyes are permanently spirals.
Grimer
Robotnik's former chief scientist and most loyal toady.
- Affably Evil: Grimer is genuinely cheerful, pleasant, optimistic, and so very, very happy in his work.
- Ambiguous Species: It's never quite said what he is, but he looks neither human nor animal.
- Hypercompetent Sidekick:
- Grimer was the primary designer of many of Robotnik's most dangerous warmachines and used personally comes to Robotnik's rescue on several occasions.
- Grimer later proves just how hypercompetent he is by doing the one thing Robotnik was never able to do: make all of Mobius hate Sonic.
- Karma Houdini:
- Despite the fact he played a fundamental role in Robotnik's schemes, designed and built most of the badniks, was entirely culpable for releasing Chaos and therefore Johnny Lightfoot's death and (unlike Robotnik) has no excuse for his evil ways, Grimer strode out of the original series scot-free and unrepentant for his misdeeds.
- After revealing that he's the reason that Sonic is now public enemy #1 on Mobius, he's all too happy to declare he's in a dimension that Sonic can never reach him and tell him goodbye for the last time. Which makes it two times he has bowed out of the series without punishment.
- Karma Houdini Warranty: He finally gets his comeuppance in the finale when Super Sonic kills him.
- Killed Off for Real: Takes a direct hit from one of Super Sonic's eye beams, which was meant for Robotnik after he annoyed the super powered hedgehog. Super Sonic even explicitly states that Grimer is dead.
- Non-Action Guy: He mostly stands out thanks to his smarts. He isn't a fighter.
- Not-So-Harmless Villain:
- He's usually seen in Robotnik's shadow, carrying out his orders with obsequious alacrity or nervous meekness as the situation demands. When Robotnik needs to be rescued, however, Grimer becomes a Chess Master to be reckoned with. And at one point when Sonic is captured, he turns downright scary.
- Then he later reveals to Sonic that HE'S the reason everyone on Mobius thinks Sonic is an evil jerk that can't be trusted and ensured that he's now public enemy #1. All because Sonic drove Dr. Robotnik insane, which left Grimer with no one to follow.
- Obviously Evil: Let's see... Evil Eyebrows, Red Eyes, Take Warning, Villainous Cheekbones, Bald of Evil with what hair he has crafted into Spikes of Villainy. Somewhat balanced out by his good manners and natty little bowtie.
- Shout-Out: A character bio in one issue gave his surname as Wormtongue. Writer Nigel Kitching subsequently clarified that this was added in by the editor, and isn't Grimer's surname in the story.
- Undying Loyalty: To Robotnik.
- The Watson: Robotnik often has to explain his plans in little bitesize pieces to Grimer, even when they are achingly simple.
Nack the Weasel
A former member of the Chaotix and recurring villain within Sonic the Comic, who operates both on his own and as something of a mercenary. He is notably technically minded, having developed his own weapons and tech, such as the size-altering cartridges adorning his hat, and a disrupter for use against Metallixes.
