Wave the Swallow/Miscellaneous

Archie Comics
In Archie Comics' Sonic the Hedgehog comic books and its spin-off comics, Wave was a member of the Battle Bird Armada, but was put in the brig for unauthorized modifications. She was eventually freed by Jet the Hawk alongside Storm the Albatross. Together they formed the Babylon Rogues to obtain glory by finding the fabled Babylon Garden.

After defecting, Wave's team were employed by Dr. Eggman to defeat Sonic the Hedgehog, but failed. Following that, they attempted to steal one of the Sol Emeralds, but failed as well. Eventually, Wave and her team found the means to locating Babylon Garden, but were forced to rejoin the Battle Bird Armada. However, they were stopped by Sonic, who destroyed Babylon Garden.

After the timeline was rebooted due to the Super Genesis Wave, Wave became nearly identical to her game counterpart.
