Professor Dillon Pickle


 * For the character in Sonic Unleashed, see Professor Pickle.

Professor Dillon Pickle is a character in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-off comics. In the Post-Super Genesis Wave timeline, he is a human academic from Spagonia stationed at Spagonia University and a renowned archeologist and historical anthropologist.

Shattered World Crisis
At some point, Dillon began deciphering the Gaia Manuscripts and uncovered that they chronicled a cyclical world destruction-and-rebirth cosmology. Later on, Dillon met up with Chuck at his residence at Spagonia University when he and Chuck were kidnapped by Dr. Eggman's Badniks, who also took their research, samples and everything else. And so, the Freedom Fighters had chased the Egg Train which stored Prof. Pickle and Chuck inside. However, after many attempts to find the professors in the train cars, Sonic was able to find Pickle and Chuck, only to be quickly ambushed by E-106 Eta.

Personality
Dillon is well-mannered, but also aloof and absent-minded, complaining about the accommodations and service on-board Eggman's train where he was held captive as a prisoner rather than being concerned by the direness of his situation.
