[edit] Sonic the Comic

Porker Lewis from his first appearance, in Sonic the Comic #1.

Porker Lewis (originally called Oscar the Pig) was a character in Sonic the Comic and is a 17-year-old pink pig with blue eyes, wearing blue jeans and a white t-shirt, and stands 5 feet 3 inches tall. He was originally little more than a helpless pig that Sonic freed from badniks (and was the only Sonic character besides Sonic himself to appear in the first issue of the comic). However, he was quickly adapted into the technical expert of the team.

[edit] History

It was later revealed that Porker had originally come from the Special Zone, where he was originally called Oscar. The crime lord Hammerhead had duped him into making a powerful bomb and after sabotaging it, he was forced to flee from both the police and an irate Hammerhead, finding a portal to Mobius and changing his name.

Once on Mobius, he resided in the Emerald Hill Zone and became a friend of Sonic. He had the dubious honour of being one of the first Mobians turned into Badniks (specifically a Buzz Bomber),[1] and afterwards became a core Freedom Fighter, albeit an extremely timid one.

The most prominent character development Porker saw during the comics was his encounter with the Brotherhood of Metallix, whereupon he found himself spending a month aboard the Miracle Planet as the Brotherhood's prisoner.[2] Porker suffered a nervous breakdown as a result and left the Freedom Fighters to go live in the Mushroom Hill Zone.[3] He made sporadic appearances helping Knuckles with the ancient technology on the Floating Island, occasionally being drawn into situations such as a raid by high-tech thieves on the island. After Robotnik was deposed, Porker would occasionally assist Sonic and the gang again, most notably against Chaos.
