Archie Comics
In his youth, Alexander went to Station Square University, where he was Chuck Thorndyke's roommate. The two people close friends and, as lab partners, they theorized a way to create a warp ray emitter, but couldn't think of a way to make it small enough for practical use.

In the present, Alexander had managed to achieve this when he got his hands on a rare metal known as Rubinite. With the news being spread by both paper and television, Chuck went to visit his old friend about his invention, with Sonic and the others tagging along.

When Alexander attempted to demonstrate the warp ray's capabilities by shrinking Sonic and Tails, the emitter accidentally shrank Eggman, Decoe, and Bocoe, who got into firing range at the last second in an attempt to attack Sonic. Unfortunately, the warp ray was damaged in the process.

While the hedgehog and doctor fought, Alexander and Chuck worked on a way to fix the warp ray, eventually managing to give it a five second burst of energy. Amy then took the emitter and saved Sonic and Tails, and also ended up saving Eggman and his goons due to their close vicinity. The warp ray broke, however, which Alexander showed disappointment in.

Personality
Alexander is very enthusiastic about his work, often forgetting the threat Sonic and Tails were in and rambling on about his research, much to the annoyance of Chris and Amy.
