Storm, from Sonic Universe #34.
In the Sonic the Hedgehog comic series and its spin-offs published by Archie Comics, Storm was a member of the Battle Bird Armada, but was put in brig for beating up a superior officer. He was eventually freed by Jet the Hawk alongside Wave the Swallow. Together they formed the Babylon Rogues to obtain glory by finding the fabled Babylon Garden.
After defecting, Storm'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 in that endeavor too. Eventually, Storm and his 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 the Babylon Garden.
After the timeline was rebooted following the events of Worlds Collide, Storm became nearly identical to his game counterpart.
