Clean Sweepstakes[]
Nite would be the commentator of the Clean Sweepstakes race, He starts off by introducing the audience and saying it is hosted by the partnership of the Restoration and Clean Sweep Inc.. Later he reminds racers that it is a qualifying race which soon after he introduces the mascots of Clean Sweep Inc. Doctor Yolk and Nick. Nite would convince Don to save the Phantom Rider, he and the Eggstreme Gear are grabbed by Nite and pulled into his van. Sonic prepares for a fight, only to recognize Nite's voice as that of the event announcer. Nite is amused by Sonic's reaction and introduces himself and his vehicle the Bad Investment to the hedgehog. Sonic also meets Nite's partner, Don, who comments the events in Misty Spire. Sonic states that that was not him, which Don had already suspected to be the case. Don sees Jet ahead of them and pushes Sonic out of sight until the hawk leaves, after which Nite offers Sonic cocoa. After listening to Sonic's explanation of what happened, Nite asks if he is worried about them possibly revealing his identity, but Sonic answers that it is a bit late for that. He explains that although he would have preferred to keep it a secret, he will still do what he needs to do regardless of what the world thinks since his friends are counting on him. Sonic asks Nite what he and Don are up to. Nite explains that the Chaotix Detective Agency have been investigating Clean Sweep Inc. for a while and were going to search around the shuttle, but he and Don have not heard from them since, which is why they approached Sonic. Sonic tells them that Tails and Amy are on the shuttle and might know something about Team Chaotix if they can find them. Don returns from repairing the Phantom Rider's control panel, and Sonic is able to transform into his full disguise again, setting off to get to the bottom of the situation.
Nite starts by announcing the final event in Clean Sweepstakes and they save the best for last until Nite says that they have an announcement from Clean Sweep Inc. reading that they are handling the situation and tells the audience not to worry or panic. Soon after the race begins with Nite announcing it is set right in the streets of Central City. Nite later commentates to the ongoing fight to stop the Phantom Rider until he is worried that Sonic is revealed to be the Phantom Rider.
Nite is telling someone to chill saying how they won't be help to anyone if they're panicking, when suddenly Charmy busts in the room telling Nite he has the proof when Clutch attempting to shoot him orders his forces to stop him, but they miss with Clutch saying how it's impossible to find good help. Clutch than falls over after being tripped by someone when Charmy gives Nite the USB and tells him he did great work with Clutch demanding him to stop and Nite responds saying how he doesn't work for him and slams the USB drive into the database. Nite takes the mike after Charmy is done and presents the crimes of Clean Sweep Inc.. He starts by saying Clean Sweep has been exploiting its privileged position further saying the Restoration has been relying on them to do the right thing but instead it's being burned and buried away causing the ground and water to be poisoned. He counties saying that he has evidence proving that falsified records, participated in extortion and violently silenced and how they sell weapons to the highest bidder and lastly, he announces the CEO Clutch the Opossum. when Clutch pushes him out of his chair.
Nite along with Jewel, Charmy and the two tied citizens would be saved by Sonic after confronting Clutch and would go help the others to escape the falling shuttle. Soon Nite and the others met up with Don who he hugs and the others would reunite when they establish a plan to crash the shuttle into the Restoration HQ though Don, Nite, Jewel, Rough and Tumble would stay and use The Bad Investment to escape though Nite encourages the people and their power to help despite not being much. By the time they reached land everyone was out and okay with them going to help clean up and rebuild the HQ.

Background Information[]
- According to Evan Stanley, Nite's creation was inspired by Clint McElroy. .[3]
- Nite's name is a pun on "Night Owl", which is a person who stays up late at night or the early hours of the morning. the term was based on the fact that owl's are nocturnal creatures.
- The character is the first instance where an exclusive character in the modern main IDW Sonic universe has a counterpart in its classic timeline.
- Nite and Don are the first canonical LGBTQ+ characters in IDW.
- Initially, the artist Mauro Fonseca decided to give Nite a different look in the Sonic the Hedgehog 30th Anniversary Special, since the comic was set in the Classic Sonic era. However, due to a lack of time, Fonseca did not ask Sega for their approval, leading to the page being rejected and having to be redrawn.[4]
