- Comedy Chimp, "Late Night Wars"

Wolf Sidekick is a character that appears in the Sonic Boom television series. He is an anthropomorphic wolf who works as the cohost of the Comedy Chimp Show and the sidekick to Comedy Chimp.

Appearance
Wolf is a humanoid wolf about a head shorter than Comedy Chimp, with sharp ears and a large muzzle. He has mostly carnelian fur with ivory fur on his stomach, muzzle, and inner ears, and has green eyes. He also has short cheek tuffs, three bangs of hair on his forehead, a brown snout, and a fluffy tail with a ivory tip. His attire consists of a light blue jacket with thin dark stripes, white shocks, and long black shoes with white tips.

TV series
Wolf has worked at least twenty years in the showbiz, although he would never change his material. Joining Comedy Chimp as his sidekick and cohost on the Comedy Chimp Show, the two would do a number of shows together, including the "New Years Eve Rockin' Bananaganza."

While Wolf joined Comedy Chimp for a fan signing, the latter began noticing that he was past his prime. Wolf thus offered to fill in for Comedy Chimp while he got his cosmetic surgery to ensure no one could would steal his job. Instead, Knuckles was chosen, whom Wolf tutored and later committed to as the echidna was given Comedy Chimp's job. Once Knuckles quit, Wolf tried filling in as the show's host which ended disastrously as Comedy Chimp resumed his post. Eventually, Wolf was given his own "Wolf Sidekick Special" episode where he put on a mediocre show that nonetheless pleased the sidekick viewers.

Personality
Wolf is very obsequious, throwing positive complements at everyone without holding any sense of loyalty in them, like casually abandoning Comedy Chimp despite supporting him several times. Though working in the showbiz, he is noted to be a talentless hack, having used the same shtick for two decades, including cliché one-liners. Despite this, he will gladly take a more active role in the Comedy Chimp Show, having tried to fill out the host position multiple times. He is also an ideal spokesperson and role model for sidekicks, who deem him very relatable.
