In the ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (IDW comic series)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' comic series and its spin-offs published by [[IDW Publishing]], Tails is the best friend and sidekick to [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Sonic]]. His past is identical to his game counterpart's, up until after the events of ''[[Sonic Forces]]''. After the [[War to Take Back the Planet|Eggman War]], Tails helped defend towns from wild [[Badnik|Badniks]] after [[Doctor Eggman|Dr. Eggman]] went missing. Tails himself suspected that someone had taken control of the Badniks, and his suspicions were proven right when it was revealed that [[Neo Metal Sonic]] was behind the Badniks now. Tails subsequently took part in the battle of [[Angel Island]], during which Metal Sonic was defeated. When Eggman later returned and released the [[Metal Virus]], Tails would research Eggman's virus in an attempt to create a cure for it, but to no avail. He later joined forces with his enemies to defeat the [[Deadly Six]] when they took control of the [[Zombot]] hordes and tried using them to destroy the world. Later, Tails met a wooden robot named [[Belle the Tinkerer|Belle]] and nearly got kidnapped by [[Doctor Starline|Dr. Starline]]. When later attacking an Eggman tower, Tails' suspicions about Belle's origins were proven correct when she was revealed to be a Badnik, albeit a good-natured one.
