Scourge The Hedgehog

Scourge the Hedgehog, formerly known as Anti-Sonic or Evil-Sonic, is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics. He was the Moebius counterpart of Sonic the Hedgehog, as well as the ruler of Moebius.

In his earlier years, Scourge was little more than a rival to Sonic, with occasional fights between the two hedgehogs. However, when he attempted to steal the Master Emerald along with Rouge, he used the chaos energy of the Emerald to intentionally become stronger than Sonic, but after Locke punched the hedgehog while absorbing energy from the Emerald, Scourge transformed into a green-hued individual that could be finally distinguished from Sonic.

When Anti-Sonic became Scourge, he was changed into a green-hued fur color, most likely because of the Chaos energy. Scourge also received a pair of slash marks on his torso from Locke when the Guardian attacked him. Scourge's eye color was also changed from green to light blue, his leather boots were changed to green sneakers and his vintage shades were changed to red shaded sunglasses.

Since he was an evil alternate version of Sonic the Hedgehog, Scourge had all of Sonic's traits, just darkened and at times, turned on their head. While Sonic enjoyed the company of his friends, Scourge had none, and saw his allies as pawns to help him prove he was the best. In addition, where Sonic often considered his battles as sport, Scourge fought to prove that he was the greatest by introducing his opponents to excruciating pain, and, if given the chance, killing them. However, his arrogance, amplified from Sonic's usual cockiness, made it easier to defeat him, but also quite dangerous and psychotic by nature.

When he was imprisoned in the No Zone, he was given a collar that suppressed his speed and stamina, and his quills were trimmed. Without these abilities, Scourge was almost helpless. He became nothing more than a common punk, right at the bottom of the convict food chain. During this period, Scourge became constantly fearful and paranoid, a shadow of his former self. But thanks to a pep-talk from Fiona, he started to rediscover his meddle, and as soon as his collar was off, he wasted no time in taking revenge against everyone who bullied him.
