Debut: | Madness Combat 2: Redeemer |
Appearances: | 3 |
Role(s): | Antagonist |

The Sheriff was the main antagonist of Madness Combat 2: Redeemer and Madness Combat 3: Avenger. Hank began hunting him after the events of Madness Combat 1, presumably after having a bounty placed on him. Much later, he returned in MADNESS: Project Nexus as a major antagonist, leading his own faction and ruling over a Portion of Nexus City.
Due to the Sheriff activating an Improbability Drive in an attempt to stop Hank, the Sheriff could be considered the overall overarching antagonist of the Madness Combat series.
Personality[]
In the main series, the Sheriff is shown to be a complete coward, preferring to flee and let his minions attack Hank rather than fighting. He is also shown to be selfish, activating an Improbability Drive that irreparably warped reality just in a futile attempt to save himself.
In MADNESS: Project Nexus, he is shown to be significantly more competent, having a sense of confidence that was lacking in his first appearances. However, when push comes to shove, he is still a coward at heart, only choosing to fight when he has the advantage or after being left no other options. He also talks in southernisms, speaking like a stereotypical cowboy.
Appearances[]
Madness Combat 2: Redeemer[]
The beginning of Madness Redeemer stated that "There was a man who sought the Sheriff." Using the 'Sheriff Tracker,' Hank managed to locate the Sheriff's and prepare for a surprise attack. When Hank broke into the building, the Sheriff fired at him and fled. In the next room, Hank again encounters the Sheriff, who shoots at Hank twice but missed and runs into the elevator. The Sheriff is not seen again until the end. He ran into his office and took cover behind his desk. Hank quickly dispatched his guards and when the Sheriff tried to shoot his foe, Hank immediately disarmed him, and left him surrendering. However, before Hank could pull the trigger, Jesus came in and shot him in the head, sparing the Sheriff for this episode. The episode ended with the moral: "Don't try to shoot the Sheriff."
Madness Combat 3: Avenger[]
After being "given a second chance," Hank continued to pursue the Sheriff. When the Sheriff saw this, he activated the Improbability Drive to kill Hank. Like the previous episode, the Sheriff only reappears at the end. After killing all of the Sheriff's guards, Hank cornered the unarmed Sheriff in front of an elevator. However, Jesus once again snuck up behind Hank and stabbed him through the chest. This time however, Hank did not give up so easily. He shot Jesus with a shotgun, ran Jesus' sword into the Sheriff's chest, and blasted off the Sheriff's face with his shotgun just before he died.
Madness Combat 4: Apotheosis[]
Although he remained dead in this episode, several posters, parodying Uncle Sam's "I Want You" propaganda, pictured the Sheriff.

Trivia[]
- Before Madness Combat 8: Inundation was released, many people believed that the Auditor would turn out to be the Sheriff revived, but Krinkels stated that this was not the case.
- The Sheriff and the Auditor are the only main characters that have never appeared in any non-canon episode.
- Krinkels has stated that Jesus and the Sheriff went to regular Hell when they died.
- When asked why the A.A.H.W. never revived the Sheriff, Krinkels replied that "the A.A.H.W. doesn't like or need the sheriff badly enough to make the effort of hauling him back. The A.A.H.W. was always an Auditor-run group, just a lot more transparently so after the sheriff died."
- According to Krinkels, when asked if Nevada has a government, he stated, "There's kind of a weird ancap thing going on in Nevada. The absence of police officers suggests the complete absence of a governing state, the Sheriff being a possible exception but I'm more compelled to believe his title as a leader is more of a parody of structure and he rules like a well organized Warlord."
