Black Death is a character that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics. He is a mobian cat sorcerer whom Knuckles the Echidna met during his search for the Sword of Acorns.
Description[]
The Ancient Walkers described him as "standing alone", meaning that he does not team up with other magic users as or more powerful than himself. His only companion is a rather weaker magician known as the Enchantress, a rabbit whom he is likely romantically attached to given their alliance and Knuckles thoughts.
Formerly a resident of Angel Island's Forbidden Zone, Black Death attacked Knuckles when the Guardian came looking for him, keeping him off balance with dark magic attacks long enough for the Enchantress to place a spell of domination upon Knuckles. The two then used Knuckles as their slave for some time, until Sir Connery arrived to capture them as part of his mission from the Ancient Walkers. Knuckles, after having broken free of the spell, faced off with Black Death and managed to trick him with some sleight-of-hand -no doubt learned from his mentor Archimedes and knocked him unconscious or killing them. Connery then took the defeated sorcerer and the Enchantress away, possibly later slaying them as he did their fellow dark magic wielders Mathias Poe and Damocles the Elder.
