Spikes (Sonic the Comic)

The Spikes is a character that appears in the Sonic the Comic series published by Fleetway Editions. It is a hermit crab-based Badnik created by Dr. Ivo Robotnik and is among the first generation of Badniks ever produced.

History
A part Dr. Robotnik's first Badnik army, some Spikes tried to keep Sonic the Hedgehog from one of Robotnik's machines, only to be torn to shreds by the hedgehog. One time, the Spikes also tried forcing Tails into becoming a Badnik, and another time they joined Robotnik's invasion force of the Hidden Zone. On each of these occasions though, the Spikes destroyed by Sonic amidst their attempts.

Some Spikes working under the Marxio Brothers helped occupy Knuckles while the brothers ran their schemes. However, Knuckles took out all the Badniks in one strike.
