Sonic the Werehog (Archie)


 * You may be looking for the actual video game counterpart.

Sonic the Werehog is an alternate counterpart of Sonic the Hedgehog in the Archie Comics Sonic the Hedgehog comics.

Appearance
A much more violent, scarier form of regular Sonic, the Werehog is only seen at night, due to amount of Dark Gaia energy inside of him. As well as that, he possess abilities that his day-form can't. None of his abilities have been seen in the comic series, though.

History
The Werehog first made his appearance in the Sonic Unleashed adaption, whereas Sonic, in his super form, defeated Dr. Eggman at his Space Armada. Eggman had seemingly turned over a new leaf, which doesn't shock Sonic. Eggman, unfortunately, activated a switch which drained the power of the Chaos Emeralds from Sonic, turning him to his regular form, and using the power of the emeralds to shatter the planet Earth into pieces. Because of Dark Gaia's energy, Sonic was transformed into his Werehog state. Frighted, Eggman released the Werehog and powerless Chaos Emeralds to Apotos. The Werehog had woke up, and a new adventure begins........ (StH #193)

The Werehog made an unofficial appearance in the Off-Panel Scourge Saga, where Scourge said he was sick of being the only Sonic-counterpart here. Of course, the Werehog was behind him, stating no. He also made another appearance in the final part of the Scourge Saga Off-Panel, where he was running a puppet show. (SU #29, #32)
