Sol Dimension
Blaze the Cat
Princess from the Sol Dimension and guardian of the Sol Emeralds. She juggles battling scurvy pirates and keeping the emeralds safe, even if that means tracking her targets down through various dimensions. Usually cold and distant, Blaze has a much softer side that she shields from others. Has a habit of taking on burdens by herself when she doesn't need to.
- Action Girl: She is a skilled and powerful fighter.
- Badass Boast: Tends to let out a few in the Archie Comics, but the one she gives to Captain Metal after he (seemingly) kills Amy, Cream, and Marine stands out as the most terrifying.Blaze: Let me tell you of duty, Captain Metal. My duty is to protect the Sol Emeralds and this world. You hold the last emerald I seek. (Captain Metal tries to get her to cooperate with him.) Cooperate with a filthy pirate? Oh no. You'll pay for what you did to my friends. You'll pay for keeping this world in jeopardy by stealing that gem. You'll give me my emerald or I can pry it from your charred remains. Either way you will... BURN!
- Burning with Anger: Sometimes done for comedic effect; other times not.

- Sugar-and-Ice Personality
- Super Mode: The first female in the series with one of these.
- Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: She doesn't like heights. She insists that she's not afraid, they just make her uneasy.
Marine the Raccoon
Friend of Blaze, prospective sea captain, aspiring mechanic, and petulant brat. Marine is a little girl with a big mouth and a boistrous attitude. She shares a similar role to Tails with Sonic or Cream with Amy. Despite being impulsive, single-minded, and constantly landing in trouble, she's actually a very smart kid and can actually come up with rather clever solutions for the situations she inevitably ends up in.
- Child Prodigy: Not quite as much in the games, but she still has incredible skill when it comes to ships.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Despite initially proving useless in helping Shadow and Blaze against Metal Sonic, she manages to finish him off with a well-aimed shot from her ship's cannons! However, in doing so, she destroyed the dimensional buffer and Shadow's only way home, but hey, the kid gets an A for effort at least.
- Genius Ditz: She may not have common sense and she might be annoying, but Marine knows way more about boats and sea travel than you would expect.
- Leeroy Jenkins: She tries to solve nearly every problem by running at it head first and shouting despite have no skills to back it up. She has had to be rescued dozens of times because of it.
- Small Name, Big Ego: It's Captain Marine to you.

- Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Tries this when the Kraken attacks, but Whisker stops him.
- Smug Snake: Where his speed and ability is concerned.
- Super-Speed: He can keep up with Sonic over land, water, and in the air.
New Universe Characters (Post-Genesis Wave)
Captain Metal
Click here to see him as Capt. Metal Crab
Formerly a Metal Sonic-series robot built by Eggman and equipped with a dimensional transporter that allowed him to hop between zones. Destroyed by Shadow and Blaze in her world, he was repaired by a kindly robot pirate/doctor and took over a crew of pirates. He seeks to harness the Sol Emeralds and use them to power his newly-discovered superweapon: the Egg O' War which is really the Wily Egg from the Worlds Collide crossover.

- Clipped-Wing Angel: While in the Egg O'War, he's technically more powerful, but has no way of stopping Burning Blaze from trashing him.
- Dressed to Plunder: Hat, jacket, and peg leg.

- Shock and Awe: Can channel electricity through his crab claw.

- Talk Like a Pirate: Adopted this after being rebuilt; he spoke normally as Metal Sonic.

Future Timeline
Silver the Hedgehog
A well-meaning time traveller from a Bad Future with a talent for psychokinesis. He means to Set Right What Once Went Wrong by outing a "traitor" in the Freedom Fighters, but he's not such a hot shot at correctly identifying said traitor. Has the added problem that traveling through time can take him to multiple timelines, begging the question of whether or not his timeline is the "real" future.
Post-Cosmic Wave, he really got a brunt of the changes. For one his ruined future is gone and now replaced by a dystopian future ruled by an ominous council who force the inhabitants to work. Here, he's just coming into his power and trying to find a way to use them when he's drafted by a Professor in helping to close errant genesis portals. It's through this, he met Sonic when he crossed timelines, apparently during the events of Sonic Colors note .
- Aborted Arc: The trying to find the Freedom Fighter traitor arc that runs through most of the issues. By the time he finally does, the Cosmic Retcon happens which rendered most of his efforts pointless.
- Anti-Hero: Even though he vows to protect his future from destruction, his Inspector Javert tendencies and lack of proper communication can make him a bit over the edge, like when he attacked the Freedom Fighters and accused them of being the traitor, even Antoine who was in a coma.
- Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: In the climax of the "Silver Age" arc, he uses the professor machine as well as Gold and his powers to make himself grow into giant size in order to combat the Second Devourer.
- The Atoner: After undergoing a Heel Realization, Silver decides to join the Secret Freedom Fighter unit under Harvey Who's advise, who also offers to solve his quest finding out who the traitor in the past was (with much greater tact and research however). After discovering it was the robotocized Sally Acorn, he helps the Freedom Fighters neutralise and capture her at last, earning Sonic's respect and forgiveness just before the cosmic wave reboot.
- Berserk Button: At one point, Silver angrily remarks that he's getting sick of people saying "It's no use," around him. Unfortunately for him, his former catchphrase has become something of a Phrase Catcher.
- Catch and Return: Used to great effect on Enerjak on Dark Mobius (aka "Dark Knuckles").
- Cut Short: Averted. Silver's "traitor" arc (and resulting redemption arc) is pretty much the only ongoing side plot finished Just in Time before the reboot.
- Deconstructed Character Archetype: Of the Inspector Javert. Silver wants to Set Right What Once Went Wrong by hunting down and destroying a traitor in the Knothole Freedom Fighters who will bring his world to ruin. Sadly, he keeps going off half-cocked with very little evidence and ends up accusing Sonic, Rotor, Antoine, and Bunnie in that order, even trying to kill the first two outright. He's forced to get help from Harvey Who and the Secret Freedom Fighters to finally pinpoint the actual traitor, but when he tries to explain himself to Sonic and the others, they're in no mood to listen to him, with Sonic telling him point-blank that he's done listening to anything Silver has to say and very bluntly telling him to screw off. It is only through Tails' persuasion, Silver helping capture Mecha Sally (the true traitor), and clear convincing that he has learned from his errors that he is finally forgiven by the heroes.
- Adding to this, it's also pointed out by one of the Secret Freedom Fighters that, the fact that Silver was expected to find and dispatch the traitor with information way out of date to be of any use means that, on top of his lack of deductive reasoning, even if he wasn't blindly pointing fingers at others, it was likely that he would have failed at his mission regardless due to barely having anything to go on. It's also strongly implied that Tails, and later Sonic himself realized that Silver himself had also gottten a raw deal despite his mistakes and gave him some leniency before they fully forgave him.
- Fatal Flaw: Impulsiveness. Silver means well, but his habit of rashly jumping to conclusions without doing thorough research tends to rub off the wrong way on others. His search for the "traitor" is even a result of his impulsive behavior as the Exact Words were that one of the Freedom Fighters "took actions that destroyed the team", not a direct betrayal. This attitude often has him be treated with hostility by Sonic and friends.
- The Friend Nobody Likes: His Inspector Javert tendencies to persecute and try to kill people he thinks are wrong-doers on questionable evidence, compared to his Easily Forgiven Aesop Amnesia in the games, slowly but surely leaves him on very bad terms with the Freedom Fighters, eventually banished and labelled a fraction of the hero they are by Sonic (who was already having his All-Loving Hero ethics tested sorely at this point). This leads to a sincere Heel Realization by Silver, and while the Secret Freedom Fighter unit take pity and induct him so as to atone, it takes much heavier convincing that Silver has changed for Sonic and the others to forgive him.
- Hated by All: Downplayed. Let's just say that, given his Inspector Javert tendencies and his attempts to kill both Sonic and Rotor, he's not very popular with the main Freedom Fighters right now. When he meets up with Sonic's team and the Arctic Freedom Fighters in the Northern Tundra, no one is very happy to see him. It's only thanks to Tails that they hear him out.
- Heel Realization: He suffers one in issue 234 when Sonic reacts violently to his Inspector Javert accusations and beats him up, forcing him to realize he's been going about locating the traitor the wrong way.
- How Do I Shot Web?: In the reboot, he's still learning how to control his powers. While they're useful in opening and closing Genesis Portals, he can't really control where they'll go.
- Inspector Javert: Has accused Sonic, Rotor, and Antoine of being the traitor that will bring his world to ruin, each time with very little to go on thanks to all records having nearly wasted away since the cataclysm. He would have accused Bunnie as well if it weren't for the fact that Sonic would have beat the snot out of him. Eventually he had to go to his masters to get everything sorted out so he can finally pin-point who he's suppose to look for. Turns out it was Sally due to her brainwashing via Roboticization. Silver later reflects that part of the reason he had so much trouble pinpointing the traitor is because he assumed they betrayed the Freedom Fighters out of malicious intent; while Sally's actions did bring about his Bad Future, it started when she sacrificed herself to save Mobius, and none of them were of her own free will.
- Leeroy Jenkins: He constantly jumps to conclusions and confronts who he believes to be "traitors" with little to no evidence to go on. He does start wising up after previous failures and getting help into his investigation, even apologizing to Sonic for his previous behavior in their last meeting before the 2nd Genesis Wave hits.
- It's even present in his theory that there is a traitor. His mentor never actually did say that there was a traitor, just that one of the founding Freedom Fighters took actions that destroyed the team. Silver, being all gung-ho, just immediately assumed the person knowingly betrayed the team rather than consider that events happened beyond their control.
- No Social Skills: Justified and Deconstructed. Because Silver comes from a dystopian future with no friends or family to speak of, he ends up having no social skills whatsoever by the time he jumps to Sonic's time, and ultimately starts off as this well-meaning but dumb kid who causes problems out of sheer ignorance instead of any kind of malice. However, this ends up leading him to be prone to Poor Communication Kills as he accuses all the wrong people of being traitors and even attacks Sonic and Rotor with little, if any, evidence to go on. Because of this, it's inevitable that he only ends up wising up, learning from his mistakes and becoming a better person after his hasty actions blow up in his face and he ends up Hated by All, especially Sonic, whose uncharacteristically much less forgiving due to prior events. It's only because the other factions of the Freedom Fighters and Tails opting to give him a second chance that he redeems himself, saves the day, and earns Sonic's forgiveness.
- "Not So Different" Remark: From Geoffrey St. John. He even points it out in Universe 43. He strongly believed that there is a traitor in Sonics' time period that results in his Bad Future and he's determined to find out who it is, even though the people he believes are the traitor turns out to be innocent. It's similar to how Geoffrey strongly believed that Naugus would help create a better/stronger government for The Acorn Kingdom and that's why he worked under him ever since he was a kid. He learned too late that Naugus was Evil All Along and that he made a horrible choice working under him.
- Phrase Catcher: The phrase "It's no use" gets thrown around a lot whenever Silver is there to hear it. Much to his annoyance.Silver: "It's no use"... I'm getting really tired of people saying that.
- Poor Communication Kills: It takes him a while to realise that accusing people back and forth whenever he gets a lead on the supposed doom bringing Freedom Fighter does not make him a popular or trusted guy. After the Secret Freedom Fighters help him uncover the answer in a more tactful way, he still almost gets a second ass kicking from the main group after initially badly wording the discovery that Sally was the future "traitor".Tails: (holding a livid Sonic and Amy back from attacking Silver)You better be going somewhere with this.
- Psychic Powers: Like his video game counterpart, he uses telekinesis. He has some latent power for telepathy as well, but it apparently needs amplification in order to do much more than "give someone a headache."
- Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory: Silver's adventures in the past end with alterations to his world, and he is the only one who remembers how things were before the shift. He needs to relearn history whenever he returns home as a result since he has no memories of the new/altered events every time.
- Set Right What Once Went Wrong: His initial story arc before the reboot where he was tasked with trying to find the traitor in the Freedom Fighters. Due to how some details in history weren't documented however, he has a hard time trying to pinpoint who it is.
- Skilled, but Naive: Good with his powers, but not so much into getting facts and interacting with people; it takes getting the traitor wrong three times and pushing Sonic to the point he physically assaults him for Silver to realize he's going about trying to find the traitor the wrong way.
- Spanner in the Works: In the original timeline that led the world to ruin, Eggman and Naugus succeeded only to die when the big disaster hit. By staying in the present, he's aided in stopping Naugus's plan to mentally enslave the council, allowing Nicole to come back into the city and help Team Freedom fight the Tails Doll. In 247, he saved Team Fighters from death at the hands of Mecha Sally, even disabling Sally so she can finally be rescued. note
- Story-Breaker Power: He's powerful enough to throw Enerjak around, not actually hurt him but still, and has a rough idea of what's going on in the current timeline. However, his desire to not excessively screw with the timeline is stopping him from just ending all the villains himself, or just staying in the timeline to help Sonic and his friends out.
- Talking the Monster to Death: In an amazing show of Character Development, Silver offers the idea of "just ask him" regarding how the Secret Freedom Fighters should deal with getting information out of turncoat Geoffery St. John. It works.
- They Would Cut You Up: His main fear about accompanying Professor Von Schlemmer to the Science Center - that, given his unique powers, he won't come back out.
- Time Travel: By using a super charged warp ring, or one of the Time Stones, which utilizes a technique called "Chronos Control."
- Tragic Time Traveler: He goes back in time to expose a traitor within the Freedom Fighters in order to avert his Bad Future, since said traitor is the one responsible for it. Unfortunately, not only are his deducting skills... rather questionable, but he ends up traveling through multiple timelines in his attempt to expose said traitor, which eventually ends with him staying in the past and trying to find the traitor only for the Super Genesis Wave to occur, rendering all his effort pointless.
- Trapped in the Past: After multiple failed attempts to find the traitor to the Freedom Fighters, and altering history each time, his master finally puts his foot down and sends Silver back to the past without a Time Stone, ensuring that this time, he won't be able to return until he actually finds the traitor.
- Unwitting Instigator of Doom: He kept traveling around through time, saying he was looking for the traitor, because he wanted to limit any damage to the time-stream. Had he just sat down and told Sonic about the second Death Egg and Naugus becoming king, he'd have accomplished his goals much quicker and prevent the Genesis Waves altogether.
- What the Hell, Hero?: When Silver reappears again to Sonic, he now tells him that it's Antoine who is the traitor. Sonic promptly puts Silver through a wall, and drags him to the hospital for that one. Why? Antoine made a Heroic Sacrifice just before Silver showed up.
Eggman Nega/"Dr. Nega"
"You dare threaten me?!"
An evil scientist and mysterious villain from across Silver time who has made a lot of noise in both the future and the Sol Dimension.
In the old universe, he was a interdimensional terrorist who was in constant war with the Zone Cops.
Due to legal issues with Sega, Eggman Nega is not allowed to physically appear in the series, although he does appear in the complete encyclopedia book. This didn't stop the comic including him some other ways, including the Zone Cops chasing him or his robots lackeys in the Sol Dimension.
- The Ghost: He only appeared once in the series, inside a flying vehicle running away from the Zone Cops.Dr. Nega! this is your forty seventh zone border in fraction! Pull over!"''
- The Greatest Story Never Told: Sonic and Blaze defeated him and Doctor Eggman once. This was the closest the comic could adapt Sonic Rush Adventure.'We tracked down the pirate leader, Captain Whiskers, and the villain who was orchestrating everything. We confronted them..."—Blaze, Sonic Universe #1
- He Who Must Not Be Seen: Only his silhouette has been seen in the main comic.
- Mad Scientist: Like his videogame counterpart.
- The Man Behind the Man: The co-creator of Captain Whiskers and Johnny.
- Put on a Bus: There was something of an arc with him in the old continuity, but thanks to the reboot, this was dropped out. What happened with Nega is unknown.
- War for Fun and Profit: According to Zonic. Considering his criminal record, he may not be wrong.'"There's a mad man called Dr. Nega traveling the cosmic highway, causing chaos and waging war on the Zone Corps."''
New Universe Characters (Post-Genesis Wave)
Gold the Tenrec
- Brainwashed and Crazy: After being caught by the council, they fit her with a new mask that puts her back in their control and uses her powers to create a new Genesis Portal with intent on sending Silver and Von Schlemmer through it as test subjects.
- Broken Bird: A cute tenrec who loses her home to a cosmic monster and manages to escape to another world only to be used by the council for her powers.
- Defector from Decadence: The only one of the council who knows how dangerous messing with the Genesis Portals is.
- Doomed Hometown: She actually comes from another world and jumped into a portal when the Second Devourer destroyed her home.
- Fantasy Counterpart Culture: She ethnically from "whatever the Sonic's World equivalent of India is"
. - I Warned You: Tells the Council this when they unwittingly unleash the Second Devourer into their world.
- Like Brother and Sister: She's written to have a sibling-like relationship with Silver.
- Mind over Matter: She is capable of some form of psychokinesis.
- Oh, No... Not Again!: Her reaction upon seeing the Second Devourer, having experienced its attack before in her world.
- Telepathy: She can communicate with others mentally, read minds, induce mental visions, create Psychic Links, mind control for a bit, and heal others mentally.
- Theme Naming: Silver and Gold, get it?
- Thinking Up Portals: It turns out she can somehow create Genesis portals.
Professor Von Schlemmer
A professor from Silver's time whose been tracking the Genesis Portals. After catching Silver displaying his psychic power, he drafts him into helping close the portals.
- Absent-Minded Professor: By his own admission that he's a bit scatter-brained.
- All of the Other Reindeer: Mentions he's come to the council many time with his discoveries but they completely ignore and dismiss them.
- Amazing Technicolor Population: Very blue skinned for some reason. He might not be human at all.
- But Thou Must!: Despite Silver's protests, he practically forces Silver to come help him.
- Canon Immigrant: Like Breezie, he comes from Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog. Also, like Breezie, he is redesigned.
- Chekhov's Gun: His Sonic-looking Bits, he manages to have some on him when the council send Silver and him through the portal and uses them to free Silver who proceeds to save him in return.
- Cyborg: His skin clearly has bolts and rectangular pieces of metal on it in places, which probably suggests this. It might also explain his unusual skin color.
- Herr Doktor: Speaks in a very thick German accent.
- Horrible Judge of Character: Silver flat out tells him people with powers like him that are taken to the Science Center are never seen again. The professor just thinks he's exaggerating, because the City Council keeps everything safe. It isn't until the council forcefully uses Gold's power to make a Genesis Portal and plans to use Silver and him as living test subjects to send through it without any sense of empathy that he finally gets the hint.
- Pointy Ears: His ears are pointy, which make him more alien looking.
The Council
The "benevolent" leaders of Onyx City from Silver's timeline. Very little is known about them.
- Dirty Coward: They try to run the first chance they get when they see the Genesis Portal is too big to be controlled despite being the ones who opened it. Silver prevent this though.
- The Faceless: Gold is the only one who takes off her mask and robe. The others never do so through their introduction arc.
- For Science!: Their main motivation, they're trying to make strides in scientific studies and finds. However they completely ignore all caution and warning when told of them, citing them as "fairy tales". Plus more then willing to sacrifice unwilling test subjects for their experiments.
- Greater-Scope Villain: It's hinted that they're responsible for the Genesis Portals. While not being responsible for their creation (that was due to Eggman's action at the end of the Worlds Collide crossover), they do plan on making use of them. The comic seems to hint however that they were the creators of the Time Portals in Sonic Generations and likely the makers of the Time Eater as well.
- Lack of Empathy: All they care about are their studies and control and are more then happy to use people in their experiments without a shred of remorse.
- Laser-Guided Karma: Tried to open a Genesis Portal and send Silver and Von Schlemmer through it. It winds up growing being their control and unleashing a monster that turns them into stone.
- Never My Fault: Von Schlemmer calls them out on their actions when their lack of caution puts their world in peril. One of they just tries to insult him in response.
- Obviously Evil: The only people who trust them are those too broken or too naive to believe otherwise.
- Omniscient Council of Vagueness
- Taken for Granite: The first victims of the Second Devourer's stone powers.
- Too Dumb to Live: As stated they don't bother to listen to warnings on how dangerous some of their experiments could be, deeming whatever sacrifice is necessary. Half the time, not even knowing what they're doing. Not surprisingly this ultimately comes back to bite them in the butt when they unleash a monster right into their world.
- Verbal Tic: "Yes.". Subverted when they see the Second Devourer coming through the portal to which one of them utters a "No!".
- You Are Number 6: The individual members are identified by the number of dots on their masks.
Second Devourer
An huge monster like being that Gold remembers from her old world when it attack it. It winds up in Silver's future when it's unwittingly unleashed through the Genesis Portals by the council.
- Ambiguous Syntax: While the name "Second Devourer" could easily be read to imply it to be the successor to a First Devourer, it can also mean "Devourer of Seconds"—which is to say, the Time Eater.
- Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: A very large being.
- Eldritch Abomination: A massive monster that seems to be made of purple fire with a very demon like appearance.
- Foreshadowing: If this is indeed the same being from the games, this could very well be the Time Eater before he was converted. The appearance of the Time Gates before he shows up seems to lead credence to this.
- Meaningful Name: A "second" is a unit of time, so it name could be considered a synonym for Time Eater.
- Planet Eater: Its introduction box even gives it the subtitle "Consumer of Worlds".
- Taken for Granite: Whatever it touches turns to stone.
Old Universe Characters (Pre-Genesis Wave)
Far future/alternate dimensional characters from the original continuity before issue #252. These characters most likely are permanently erased from the new timeline thanks to the Super Genesis Wave.
No Zone
Home dimension of the Zone Cop Corps that police the Multiverse.
Zonic the Zone Cop
- Because Destiny Says So: His reason for throwing Sonic into interdimensional conflicts, and why he hasn't taken care of Eggman.
- Close-Enough Timeline: Reading into his excuses, he feels that Sonic wasn't supposed to decisively defeat Robotnik, so Robo-Robotnik was allowed to take his place before the Zone Cops were distracted by other matters. This backfires - HARD.
- By-the-Book Cop: Sworn to keep balance between Zones. As a result, he tends to avert Sonic's Screw Destiny tendencies. But at least he usually has good humor about it.
- Did You Think I Can't Feel?: Shown after Sonic calls him out for callously throwing him into a scenario where he had to fight an alternate version of his father. Zonic shows he sympathizes with Sonic by revealing they're both alternate versions of one another, thus proving he knew what Sonic's been through.
- Gravity Screw: Zonic is from a zone perpendicular to all others, resulting him to appear to be standing sideways. Invariably, all of his appearances tend to involve this.
- Guardian of the Multiverse: Tasked with keeping the peace between multiple realities. Interestingly enough, he says it's Sonic's job to do this, and he has a bad habit of getting Sonic to do his job for him.
- Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Not taking Eggman away results in him and the rest of the multiverse being destroyed after Worlds Collide.
- Police Are Useless: A justified example due to him and the other Zone Cops being kept occupied by the war with Eggman Nega.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit, although he is a Dan Slott creation.
Zone Cop Corps
- Bizarro Universe: Run by alternate versions of the main characters. The main warden is actually an alternate of Robotnik.
- Corrupt Cop: Warden Zobotnik, who has interesting ideas about how to rehabilitate criminals.
- Gravity Screw: Since the No Zone runs perpendicular to the other Zones, everyone in it seems to be standing sideways whenever they interact with characters from other Zones. The Zone prison, where dimensional criminals are held for expended periods of time, is built specifically to accommodate for these differences. Various platforms can be deployed out of walls to become walkways for the staff, and the prison has controlled gravity in order to keep everyone on the ground or to send them floating if a ruckus occurs. The prison itself is suspended in the air and cylindrical allowing anyone to walk on its surface and stay grounded much like a planet's gravity.
- Great Offscreen War: against "Dr. Nega," keeping them occupied in the later years of their existence.
- Guardian of the Multiverse
- Hellhole Prison: Judging by all the abuse heaped on Scourge by inmates and prison guards alike in the Zone Jail.
- Police Are Useless: They've been shaping up to be this in recent issues pre-reboot. Aside from Robo-Robotnik/Eggman being an alternate Dr. Robotnik from another Zone, Anti-Sonic/Scourge and Anti-Antoine/Patch also cause a mess of trouble in the Prime Zone, with Patch in particular reducing King Max to a senile cripple and killing Antoine Prime's father. When Sonic calls Zonic out on this in issue 197, on top of the fact that he had to bring Scourge to the No Zone for punishment himself, Zonic explains that Sonic wasn't supposed to decisively defeat Robotnik, and since Eggman shares a near-identical past with Robotnik Prime, he's the best candidate to fill in for him and is needed for the Prime Zone's stability. In the case of Scourge, Zonic points out they've been under siege by Dr. Nega, and Scourge's mutation has made him a Wild Card in the cosmic scheme of things.
- Power Limiter: Put Control Collars on inter-dimensional criminals in order to make them less dangerous.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- Theme Naming: As with Zonic, each Zone Cop's name is the same as their Mobius Prime counterpart, just with a "Z" at the beginning.note
Horizont-Al and Verti-Cal
- Darker and Edgier: They started as Silver Age-styled wacky characters, who were annoying but far from threatening. The next time they appeared in person, events during the intervening time had made them unrecognizable.
- Only Friend: To Scourge during his time in the Zone Corp Prison before the Destructix come to retrieve him, though they do so as hope to a means to busting out themselves. Scourge leaves them hanging during his escape however.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- Superpowered Evil Side: what their evil mech forms have become in their last appearance, held in check by Zone Cop technology.
- Took a Level in Jerkass: Thanks to the destruction of the Ultimate Annihilator, they became fearsome creatures that wanted to kill each other, going so far as to capture Sonic and Tails and turn them against each other.
Moebius
Home dimension of the Anti-Freedom Fighters, it is noted for having inhabitants that are reversed versions of their Prime counterparts, whether in terms of villains being heroes, and/or having different personality traits.
Dr. Ivo Kintobor
- Early-Installment Weirdness: His original appearance had him look just like the original Robotnik, his second was much thinner, and then finally, he was portrayed with his current, more Eggman-like appearance.
- Evil Doppelgänger: Inverted as he is the Good version of Robotnik and Eggman. Robotnik was a scientist while Kintober is a medical doctor. Robotnik and Eggman both were aggressors, Kintober's a pacifist and only acts when the Suppression Squad acts first. A small detail even has him obsessively double checking Sonic's gear and Buns's suit contrasting with the sloppiness that Eggman was applying to everything as he was breaking down at the time.
- Mythology Gag: His current appearance is based on Eggman's classic appearance from the Genesis-era games.
- Omnidisciplinary Scientist: A lot like his Mobius Prime counterpart. He's a vet, but he's also made powered armor, "sweep-bots", and a method for traveling between dimensions.
- Opaque Lenses: Much like Eggman's Scary Shiny Glasses.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
Overseer O'Nux
- All There in the Script: His "Moebian" name is only stated in the Complete Sonic Encyclopedia.
- Continuity Cameo: When Scourge returns and Moebius is explored a little more, O'Nux has a brief appearance being defeated in Miles's recount of how Scourge took over.
- Good All Along: While he's the mirror world counterpart of Knuckles he only inverts Knuckles hostility rather than his morality. Though he helped Scourge out in his debut, he's revealed to be a nice enough guy just trying to save his underwater city, even helping Sonic in the end.
- Martial Pacifist: He's against violence, but he was still capable of throwing down with his counterpart.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- Underwater City: Atlantinopolis, to contrast with Angel Island.
Buns
- Anti-Hero: Buns was a rabble-rouser and thug but as a hero she's competent and when she teamed up with Amy and Sonic she did her best to assist and protect them. She's not overly fond of the Omega Unit's lack of lethal weaponry but she respects the Doctor's decision.
- Evil Doppelgänger: Played With
- Buns spends most of her time as a good guy and never meets Bunnie much less fight her. However, much like O'Nux, Buns inverts several of Bunnie's other traits. Bunnie hates Robotnik for what he did to her, Buns is loyal to Kintober because of what he did for her; Bunnie is afraid of hurting her friends, Buns is happy to because they abandoned her.
- The Omega Caring Unit inverts this as Omega's counterpart. Omega is fully sentient and rebels against Eggman, the Caring Unit is built non-sentient and its pilot is loyal to Kintober. Omega is proud of his destructive capability, Buns isn't happy with the Caring Unit's lack of lethal weapons. Their names have opposite meanings: E-123 Omega was named Omega to signify him as the most powerful and final of the E-123 series, the Caring Unit was named Omega to signify it as a last resort.
- Evil Wears Black: Back when she was evil, she wore a black variation of her good doppelganger's brown cowgirl hat and pink leotard ensemble.
- Heel–Face Turn: After her team shunned her for her sickness, Dr. Kintober took her in and she pledged her loyalty to him.
- Powered Armor: The Omega Caring Unit is a suit of armor which not only serves as a weapon in battle, but also suppresses Buns's N.I.D.S.
- Sonic Stunner: One of the Omega Caring Unit's weapons is a sonic blaster that makes the target dizzy.
- Tough Spikes and Studs: Buns's original outfit included studded bracelets, a hat and a belt.
- Undying Loyalty: Though Miles is doubtful, Buns is very grateful for Dr. Kintober's help and his dedication to finding a cure. As such she does her best to try and pay him back as his loyal guardian.
Light Mobius
A alternate future of Mobius Prime, set twenty-five, and later thirty, years in the future. Lara-Su
The future daughter of Knuckles and Julie-Su seen in the "Mobius: 25/30 Years Later" storyline note .
Confusingly, due to some very convoluted Time Travel plotlines there have been two (or depending on how you count, three) distinct versions of Lara-Su shown in the comic: one affected by time travel, and the other a time traveler herself. For tropes pretaining to her Dark Mobius counterpart, see "Jani-Ca".
She is the second, and better known, version of Lara-Su appears in the "Mobius [X] Years Later" storylines as a would-be successor to her father as the Guardian of the Master Emerald. Initially Knuckles resisted letting her take the job, but ultimately relented. Her reality was re-written due to King Sonic's own tampering with the timeline, but this worked out mostly to her advantage as one of the major changes was that Knuckles allowed her to train as a Guardian much earlier and ascend as a full-blooded Action Girl.
Both versions of Lara are feisty and hot-tempered, much like her parents, and both ultimately became full-blooded Action Girls. However Lara-Su of the "Mobius [X] Years Later" arc seems more peppy and cheerful. As a Guardian, she possesses all of Knuckles' abilities, including flight and Chaos Control.
- Action Girl: She goes head to head with Shadow. And wins!
- Distaff Counterpart: Takes a lot after her dad, in more ways than one.
- Fiery Redhead: Is she ever!
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- So Proud of You: Gets one from her dad in the MXYL plotline after teaming up with Sonic and Tails.
- Un-person: According to Ken Penders of all the characters removed, she is one of the three who are truly banned from appearing in the comic.
King Sonic
- Butterfly of Doom: Apparently, Sonic's past actions nearly caused time and space to tear itself apart. Sonic goes back in time to fix it, but ends up completely changing the world, and not exactly for the better.
- Cool Old Guy: Relative to the age of your average Sonic character (he's only in his 40s), King Sonic is this.
- Dented Iron: He can still fight but due to his age, he's not as tough as he used to be.
- Feeling Their Age: While he retains his Super-Speed and is still a good fighter, he's still in his 40s and thus not as strong as he used to be. Best shown when he takes on Shadow, who's The Ageless, and gets his ass kicked.
- Older Than They Look: Looks like the same blue blur we all know, but that's due to time travel shenanigans which kept him youthful looking. He still aged naturally and by the time of the story is in his 40s.
- Reluctant Ruler: In the original timeline, Sonic was having doubts about whether or not he was cut out for the life of being a king.
- Royals Who Actually Do Something: Despite being in his 40s, Sonic still shows no hesitation about being the first to leap into action.
- Yell Yell Kiss: Sonic and Sally have one of these moments just before The Dark Presence Invasion.
Argyle the Crocodile
Vector's future son.
- Fanboy: Argyle seems to be a fanboy of Sonic, geeking out when he busts out his catchphrase, "Let's do it to it."
- Mission Control: Argyle takes this role during the battle with the Dark Presence.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- Ship Tease: Implied to be in a relationship with Lara-Su.
Belle and Jacques D'Coolette
Antoine and Bunnie's future children.
- Cyborg: Both of them have a cybernetic arm and a leg. Jacques has a blade arm, while Belle's is an arm cannon.
- Irony: Belle takes after her father and speaks in a French accent, while Jacques gains his mother's southern drawl.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit; actually Ian Flynn creations.
- Riddle for the Ages: It's unknown if their cybernetic limbs are because of medical purposes, or because of a trend.
Melody and Skye Prower
Melody on the left, Skye on the right.
Tails and Mina's future children.- Action Girl: Melody, who's all too eager to leap into battle
- Cowardly Lion: Skye has courage issues but he puts it aside to help his family and friends.
- How Do I Shot Web?: Skye hasn't quite gotten the hang of flying with his tails properly and winds up spinning himself around as he does so.
- Idiot Hair: Skye has his tuft of hair standing up.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
Manik and Sonia
Light Mobius Version
Click here to see their initial future forms
The twin children of Sonic the Hedgehog and Sally Acorn from Light Mobius. The twins share their father's love for adventures and their mother's royal responsibilities.
- Badass Adorable: Both of them.
- Big Damn Heroes: Saving their own father no less. They spin dash right though Tikhaos just as it knocks Sonic back with a energy blast and was about to finish him off.
- Childish Tooth Gap: Light Mobius Manik has a gap in his teeth.
- Did You Just Spin Dash Tikhaos?
- Dirty Kid: Manik had a (mostly) G-rated pervert streak before the time rewrite.
- Mythology Gag: Named after Sonic's siblings from Sonic Underground.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- Royals Who Actually Do Something: They get it from their mother.
- Ret-Gone: Actually happened to them twice. Besides the Genesis Wave business, their first teenaged incarnations ceased to exist due to the time rewrite.
- Strong Family Resemblance: They basically look like minirature version of their parents, except Manik has his mother's blue eyes, where Sonia has her father's green eyes.
- Super-Speed: They get it from their father. Before the time rewrite, only Manik inherited it though.
King Shadow
In the Light Mobius timeline, after Sonic vanished following Dr. Eggman's demise, Shadow rose to power and conquered all of Mobius in one year. He brought his own version of unity and peace to Mobius through brutal law enforcement, with the Dark Presence (formally the Dark Legion) as his enforcers. Sally Acorn married him in an attempt to bring some stability and leniency to his brutal leadership, with very little success.
Things only got worse over the following two decades, as due to his Chaos abilities, Shadow was fully aware of the original timeline, and was determined to keep anyone with lingering memories from trying to restore it. Arresting individuals such as Rotor, Sonic, Tails, and Lara-Su for "treason". His brutal rule came to an end thanks to the efforts of Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Lara-Su, who used Chaos Control to place him in suspended animation.
However, five years later, the Dark Presence successfully invaded Castle Mobius and revived the former king from his imprisonment, enraged, Shadow proceeded released Tikhaos upon the world as revenge. While Tikhaos was stopped by the Future Freedom Fighters, what became of Shadow is unknown.
- Adaptational Villainy: Downplayed Shadow started as a villain as per his story arc in Sonic Adventure 2, and then settled on being a hero. In this continuity however, Shadow comes to the conclusion that the only way to achieve Maria's wish is for him to become the ruler of Mobius.
- Altar Diplomacy: Sally married him in order to bring stability to his rule. It didn't work.
- Anti-Villain: Rules Mobius with an iron fist and his subjects are clearly miserable under his regime, but as noted below, Shadow's rule served as a deterrent to other would be villains to takeover, and he still operates under the belief that this is the only way he can fulfill Maria's wish of a better planet.
- Big Bad: Acts as this for the X Years Later stories.
- Curb-Stomp Battle: When Sonic fights him in this timeline, Shadow easily smacks him around, as Sonic had aged and gotten weaker while Shadow, being immortal, did not. Ironically when Lara-Su took over the battle, she proved to be more then a match for him, beating him in a battle of Chaos Control.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: As with the normal Shadow, he loved Maria, and as King he seemingly deified her. A large angelic statue of her is seen being worshiped, and characters swear by her as they would a religious figure.
- Marriage of Convenience: There does not appear to be any love between him and Sally, who only married him to stabilize his tyrannical rule (which didn't work).
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit; actually an Ian Flynn creation.
- Pay Evil unto Evil: He betrays Lien-Da at the first opportunity, with the latter being a callous manipulator that no one in the story would particularly would miss.
- Repressive, but Efficient: It's noted that while Shadow's regime was brutal, it still brought peace and stability to all of Mobius.Knuckles: Things may have been bad under King Shadow, but at least he knew how to keep the warmongers in line.
- Well-Intentioned Extremist: Shadow took over the world in order to bring peace to it. After being sealed away for five years thanks to Lara-Su, he unleashes Tikhaos and super-charges her with Chaos Energy to destroy the world, so the survivors would once again accept King Shadow's rule.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: After he release Tikhaos, he just sorta disappears from the story and isn't seen again. Most likely this was meant as a Sequel Hook for a future "X Years" issue. But the lawsuit nixed those plans.
Rutan
Click here to his initial Future Form
Lien-Da's son in the Light Mobius timeline.
- Everyone Has Standards: While his relationship with his cousin Lara-Su is anything but positive, he showed visible unease when he overheard his mother gloating about getting her arrested alongside Tails and Sonic.
- Interspecies Romance: In both timelines, Rutan has a relationship with a Chameleon named Salma (Espio's daughter). Although their relationship has become somewhat rocky in the altered timeline.
- Missing Mom: After King Shadow was dethroned, Lien-Da went into hiding, leaving Rutan under the care of his ancestor Dimitri.
- Morality Chain: To Lien-Da, though not enough to keep her from leaving.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- What Happened to the Mouse?: It's unknown what became of him after Lien-Da faded away to her place into the altered timeline.
Tikhaos
Above: Tikal Below: Chaos
A monster created from the fusion of Tikal and Chaos's souls. It lives sealed underneath the castle.
- Helpless Good Side: Tikal is able to stay in control, but only when they're starving. Chaos takes over if they have too much Chaos Energy.
- Horror Hunger: Tikhaos is constantly starving for more Chaos Energy. However, if she's fed too much she loses control and becomes the mindless Perfect Tikhaos.
- Noodle Incident: Exactly how and why Tikal and Chaos fused is never explained, all that's known is that it had something to do with the "Ixis Resurgence" and the "Elemental War".
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit; actually an Ian Flynn creation.
- Restraining Bolt: She's held under the castle in a special container to keep her from succumbing to her hunger and going crazy.
- With Great Power Comes Great Insanity
Dark Mobius
Dark Mobius is an alternate future destroyed by Enerjak with very few resistant fighters remaining until Silver arrives and helps overthrow the tyrant.
Jani-Ca
As Enerjak
The future daughter of Knuckles and Julie-Su seen in the "Fractured Mirror" arc of Sonic Universenote .
Confusingly, due to some very convoluted Time Travel plotlines there have been two distinct versions of Lara-Su shown in the comic: one affected by time travel, and the other a time traveler herself. For tropes pretaining to her Light Mobius counterpart, see "Lara-Su".
Technically the first version of Lara-Su shown in the comic. She had gone back in time attempting to Set Right What Once Went Wrong by rescuing her father from an assassination attempt that had led to her growing up in a a Bad Future, only to find that Knuckles had never died and in fact had been the cause of the Bad Future. This instance of Lara's personality introduced herself as "Jani-Ca" and was dropped from the comic after her introduction, not getting a full resolution to her plotline until the "Fractured Mirror" storyline in Sonic Universe, where she is shown as the battle-hardened leader of the last remaining Freedom Fighters.
Both versions of Lara are feisty and hot-tempered, much like her parents, and both ultimately became full-blooded Action Girls. However Jani-Ca's personality became noticeably more brittle and jaded as a result of having grown up in a Bad Future ruled over by her own father as the Big Bad,
- Action Girl: She is forced to continually contend with the likes of Enerjak.
- Archnemesis Dad: Dark Enerjak is this for Jani-Ca.
- Berserk Button: Do not call her Lara-Su. Don't even say it. Silver nearly got the business end of the Sword of Acorns because of this.
- Cool Sword: She wields the Sword of Acorns. After she uses it to absorb Enerjak's energy, however, she shatters it.
- Didn't See That Coming: She'd only intended to depower her father. Actually gaining his powers hadn't been part of the plan, and she was as surprised as anyone when it happens.
- Future Badass: While her Light Mobius counterpart is a spirited Action Girl, Jani-Ca is gritty and tough-as-nails to the point she makes her counterpart seem like a Granola Girl in comparison. This was lampshaded in an Off-Panel strip.
- Kid from the Future: At one point, she travels back to the past, giving her name as "Jani-Ca." She later takes on that alias back in her own time.
- Redeeming Replacement: As Enerjak, she's determined to do good with the power she's got, and hopefully avoid going completely insane.
- Set Right What Once Went Wrong: She tries, but not being informed as to what needed fixing in the first place, she doesn't do so hot. Silver relates to this frustration very well.
- Un-person: According to Ken Penders of all the characters removed, she is one of the three who are truly banned from appearing in the comic.
- Women Are Wiser: Unlike Dimitri and Knuckles, Jani-Ca retained her sane state of mind after transforming into Enerjak, and is implied to be smart enough to dispose of her powers after she briefly utilizes them, solely for (genuinely) benevolent purposes.
Dark Freedom Fighters
The last line of defense against Dark Knuckles.
- Alternate Self: All of the Dark Freedom Fighters are this:
- Jani-Ca: Lara-Su
- Cutlass Depardieu: Antoine D'Coolette
- Scarlette Rabbot: Bunnie Rabbot
- Dagger Walrus: Rotor Walrus
- Payback Fox: Fiona Fox
- Demo Duck: Bean the Dynamite
- Blockbuster Polar Bear: Bark the Polar Bear
- The Berserker: Demo Duck. Once he goes nuts, there's no stopping him.
- Eyepatch After Time Skip: Demo's missing an eye.
- Good Counterpart: Payback Fox, Demo Duck, and Blockbuster Polar Bear are this to Fiona, Bean, and Bark respectively.
- Official Couple: Demo and Scarlette.
- O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Bark the Polar Bear never utters a word, so it's a sign of just how serious things are that Blockbuster speaks.
- Put on a Bus: thanks to the Penders Lawsuit, there's no hope for their return due to how closely tied they are to Jani-Ca.
- Red Shirt Army: Pretty much, they can deal with Prelates well enough but against Dark Enerjak they go down like dominoes.
- Walking Shirtless Scene: Cutlass wears no shirt, showing off his torso covered in scars.
- Your Soul Is Mine!: Every member excluding Jani-Ca ends up on the receiving end of this the moment Dark Enerjak gets serious.
Dark Enerjak/Knuckles
As Enerjak
De-powered
A version of Knuckles from Dark Mobius who went mad with power after becoming Enerjak.
- A God Am I: Naturally, as Enerjak.
- The Atoner: In the now deleted Dark Mobius epilogue that was featured on Archie Comics' defunct blog, the de-powered Knuckles choses to help Jani-Ca reverse what he had done to the world by teaching her how to use her Enerjak powers. However given his numerous requests to have some of his power returned, it's dubious as to how much of this is genuine.
- Big "NO!": When the Sword of Acorns is smashed by Jani-Ca, preventing Knuckles from ever taking back Enerjak's power.
- Continuity Cameo: His armor can be seen in the No Zone Jail during "Scourge: Lockdown".
- The Dreaded: This version has gone so insane with power that nobody on the planet wants him around, and none of them can still do anything to stop him regardless.
- Evil Doppelgänger: To Knuckles, much more than his Moebius Counterpart; most notably to Knuckles' time as Enerjak. When Prime Knuckles became Enerjak he was mind-controlled but still his Enerjak almost had a nobility to him as he tried to save his people and the Dark Legion (for better or worse). Dark Knuckles has a selfishness to his beliefs and the future he wants to form is born from that self righteous desire rather than Prime Knuckles Enerjak's warped but genuine one.
- Evil Is Petty: His minions are the twisted remains of his former friends, their souls yanked out and turned into mindless husks. He could've thrown anyone at the resistance, but he chooses the Freedom Fighters and Chaotix specifically.
- Evil Old Folks: A now elderly Knuckles. Without the power of Enerjak, he's reduced to a shriveled old man.
- Hero Killer: This incarnation had already beaten every hero and villain from the main stories (including Super Sonic), the Freedom Fighters in that timeline were only still alive because he was bored and let them live for his amusement.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: Silver realizes Dark Knuckles has been all powerful because all his adversaries have been trying to match their power against his which he can easily counter against. So Silver uses Dark Knuckles' own power against him which sure enough damages him.
- The Juggernaut: While this trope could be applied to the main version as well, this incarnation fits it the best. He turned evil and alienated anybody who was on his side, but even with that nothing on his planet for decades could stop him. In his fight with Silver, he No Sells everything thrown at him, with the best Silver can do is make him mad. He's only stopped by his own daughter using the Sword of Acorns to drain his power.
- Kick the Dog: He forces Jani-Ca to fight the Prelate of her own mother Juli-Su, even telling her he'd been saving her for such an occasion.
- Knight Templar: Much less of a Well-Intentioned Extremist than his Prime Counterpart.
- Mood-Swinger: At one point, the resistance mentions sometimes he'll just... stop whatever he's doing and hover ominously in the same spot for days at a time.
- Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Had he been content with taking over his Mobius, his rule would have been forever unopposed. However his lust for more worlds to conquer led to one of his Prelates leading Silver back to Dark Mobius, this bites him in the ass HARD.
- Offscreen Karma: His armor is shown in the No Zone Jail during "Scourge: Lockdown", heavily implying that the Zone Cops apprehended him sometime after his defeat. Given the fact that he was sending his Prelates across dimensions to expand his Empire, it's not surprising.
- Pay Evil unto Evil: While he is incredibly evil, some of his victims shown front and center in his collection were villains such as Dr. Eggman, Snively, Nack, Predator Hawk, Lien-Da, Ixis Naugus, and Dr. Finitevus.
- Physical God: This version is in fact Chaos Knuckles with full mastery of his powers.
- Put on a Bus: Gone after the Penders lawsuit.
- Put on a Bus to Hell: Possibly, in "Scourge: Lockdown" his armor can be seen in the No Zone Jail. This implies the he was captured sometime after Silver defeated him.
- Smug Snake: Dark Enerjak is even more smug than the original version since he's had the entire planet to torment for decades with nothing to stop him.
- Unskilled, but Strong: When Silver fights this incarnation, he matches him blow-for-blow in terms of raw power, and when he starts using strategy in conjunction, Enerjak can't adapt and ultimately loses.
- Villain Killer: Among his victims◊ were Dr. Eggman, Snively, Nack, Predator Hawk, Lien-Da, Ixis Naugus, and Dr. Finitevus.
- With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: He was our lovable doofus, Knuckles, a long time ago. Now...not so much.
- Would Hurt a Child: Among his victims and the various Prelates he summoned were Tails, Ray the Flying Squirrel, and Cream the Rabbit.
- Your Soul Is Mine!: He can pull out the core of a person and reshape it into artificial warriors called Prelates with no emotions to fight for him. Even if they're slain, all he needs to do is re-collect the core and remake them.
Prelates
Prelates of various alignments.
Prelates Chaotix
Prelate-JS
Artificial warriors created from the extracted cores of countless Mobians, now forced to serve under Dark Enerjak and act as enforcers of his will. After eliminating most of the resistance forces on Mobius, Dark Enerjak started sending his Prelates to other Zones in hopes of to conquering them as well.
- The Blank: Save for their glowing eyes, they have no actual faces.
- Empty Shell: They have no emotions nor can they think for themselves.
- Eye Beams: Their main method of attacking is firing energy blasts from their eyes.
- Fallen Hero: Many of them were Freedom Fighters before Dark Enerjak extracted their cores.
- Feel No Pain: They are apparently incapable of feeling pain.
- Golem: They all seem to a robotic variant of this. They even have HUDs that display their objectives and can scan the while assessing subjects of interest.
- Pokémon Speak: Their only form of speech seems to be shouting a shortened version of their respective names whenever they attack. For example, Vector’s Prelate says “Vekt”, and Mighty's says “Mhzt”
- Thinking Up Portals: Every Prelate has the ability to generate portals via corrupted Super Warp Rings, allowing them to travel to alternate dimensions.
- Your Soul Is Mine!: They're created from the extracted cores of Mobians.
