Scourge the Hedgehog

A funny thing happened as I wrote this article. I told a bunch of people what I was doing and a lot of people made the comment “Sonic is bad enough.” Well, luckily I have just the thing you’re going to hate. I see your Sonic and I raise you an edgelord evil mirror-mirror counterpart of Sonic.

See, Scourge here hails from the Moebius Universe. In the comics, the Moebius Universe is the age-old “evil us’s” verse where everyone evil is good and vice verse. Scourge has been around for a very long time and is equal in power and speed to Sonic only, worse. Here’s how he first appeared.

But over time, after their universes crossed over, Scourge hated that he had an equal and absorbed a chaos gem directly into his damn fool body giving him that extra strength he needed to dominate his kingdom and take over as well with his strange green coloration.

He’s literally the sum total of all the different “evil version” characters that seem perfectly okay with ruling everything despite them basically living out of trash piles. But at least his accessories fit, unlike the next person on our list.
