Bugernaut (Sonic the Comic)

The Bugernaut is a character that appears in the Sonic the Comic series published by Fleetway Editions. It is a mass-produced, horsefly-based Badnik model created by Dr. Ivo Robotnik.

Appearance
Based on the horsefly, Bugernauts have a small blue body with a pair of large superposition eyes, four big wings and a cylinder-shaped abdomen on their back.

History
While patrolling the Metropolis Zone, Bugernauts would spot some of the Freedom Fighters and help apprehend them, unaware that they were being played by the Freedom Fighters for a secret plan to infiltrate Robotnik's info center.

On the day Robotnik's tyranny over Mobius ended, Bugernauts and hundreds of others Badniks were called in by Grimer to stop the rebels in the Metropolis Zone until a global electromagnetic created by Super Sonic destroyed them.

The Bugernauts were not seen again until they joined a horde of Badniks for a surprise attack on the Freedom Fighters, which was later revealed to have been set up by Agent X.
