Akhlut the Orca

Akhlut is the Grandmaster of the Northern Tundra Dark Egg Legion in the Archie Comics Sonic the Hedgehog comics. Being the arch-nemesis of the Arctic Freedom Fighters, as well as the advisory of the Walrus Herd, Akhlut is an orca with mechanical parts attached to his skin. He is ruthless and power-hungry.

Tundra Attack
Akhlut, along with his Dark Legion forces, brainwashed the Walrus Herd via Psionic Emitter, previously located at a Totem Base. When Sonic and the Arctic Freedom Fighters– Guntiver, Augustus, Flip, Sealia, and Erma– came to free the herd, Augustus, Flip, and Sealia went inside the underwater section to free the herd. Unfortunately, Akhlut and his forces attacked the three Freedom Fighters, controlled them via psychic blasts and sent Augustus out of the water. Akhlut explained the struggle between the Orca race and the Walrus Herd to control the Northern Tundra was a long war to fight. He also explained how the orcas helped Dr. Eggman back then to hypnotize the Walrus Herd, thus leaving them under their control. With this control, he could rule proudly for Eggman, and for the Dark Egg Legion. However, Rotor and Silver stopped Akhlut's plans and freed the Walrus Herd. The psychic beam also confused the Akhlut and his forces, and the orcas has no choice but to flee. (StH #215, #216)

Akhlut reappeared sometime later, who was told that the Death Egg 2 had crashed and sank into the sea by Snively. However, this was all a lie and Akhlut was quickly transported along with the other Grandmasters by Eggman that what Snively told them was a lie and that they must keep an eye out for Snively, as well.

Trivia

 * Akhlut's name is based off of a spirit from Inuit mythology that could assume the form of a wolf or orca.
