Fabian Vane's manager is the man responsible for steering Fabian Vane's career in the right direction. Attempting to appear as "cool" as his employee, the bird wears shades on his beak and dresses in the trendiest clothes and sandals. It was his responsibility to inform Vane's fans that, due to a stage invasion by Bruiser Magoon, the rest of his concert had been cancelled due to an upset of "Fabian's creative flow". As per request of Vane himself, he then invited Amy Rose and Tekno the Canary backstage (before telling fan Norris Wimple to go home with his dirty washing).
The manager was never seen again, but it could be presumed that his manager stuck with him. If he did, he may have been responsible for Vane recording his demo tapes in the Old Hill Zone, his subsequent career in table-side entertainment and perhaps even the attempt to force Vane through the Ring of Eternity. By the time of Vane's next successful concert, however, the bird was nowhere to be seen and Max Gamble took on the role as manager and venue owner.
Although this character is named here as Vane's manager, it isn't explicitly stated in the edition of Sonic the Comic.
