30th Anniversary: The 5 worst characters in Sonic history

Folke-Wulf

First off, let me get this out of the way, you are absolutely pronouncing it correctly. Well, close, it’s more of a “fah-k”. Still. In a universe that is as bizarrely horny (we’ll get to that in two more entries) as the Sonic Universe, this is a very dangerous name to have.

Folke-Wulf (later named Falke-Wulf in the comics because of how his name sounded) is a character named after Folke-Wulf, the German company that produced warplanes for the Nazi army in World War 2. So… that’s fun.

He’s also one of the generals of the main boss of the game “Tails’ Skypatrol” which I didn’t even know existed until the researching for this article. His main claim to fame is that he builds war machines…war machines that seem to be too small for him as his legs dangle dangerously off the sides of whatever he builds. See the two pictures for reference.

So, not only is this early Disney reject capable of making advanced machines but unable to recognize scale, he also holds the distinction of being one of the few characters in Sonic history who was…bested by Tails alone. Just Tails. No gadgets either. Just Tails and his…mild fury.

And speaking of people with a lot of capability that can’t use it correctly…
