Who is Marvel's Puck? Big Man, Little Package
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- This video explores the abilities, powers, and origin of the Marvel Comics character "Puck." From Eugene Milton Judd growing up as a giant athletic young man in Canada, becoming a mercenary that found the possessed Black Blade of Baghdad and absorbed the evil Black Raazer to contain the villain, gaining superhuman strength and longevity as well as durability and speed after this chance event, conversely shrinking to the size of a dwarf while enduring a constant pain from the process, having similar fighting skills to his long-time friend Wolverine, to thriving as the heart of superhero teams like Alpha Flight and Uncanny X-Force; Let's take a look at this classic Marvel superhero, and the resident little tough-guy of multiple Marvel teams. This includes a short, canon character biography and my own opinionated "Sage Rating," which I use to give ratings of comic book and science fiction characters.

I spoke with Puck creator John Byrne Back in one of the old Marvel chat rooms during the internet’s early days. He told me that Puck was never intended to be a super-powered being, but simply a highly trained little person. Byrne had even gotten praise and awards from Little People organizations for how he candidly showed the physically painful struggles many little people endure in life, and how he had created a cool hero representing people with dwarfism and so on. But Byrne had a famous falling out with Marvel and Jim Shooter, so as soon as Byrne had made his way over to DC, new writers of Alpha Flight sabotaged Puck -undoing everything that made him a relatable hero to little people. Byrne said he had still been following Alpha Flight (after all he created the team) even after he left Marvel. But he stopped reading them the day a new writer revealed that Puck was really a 7-foot tall man with an evil spirit inside him… instead of what he was intended to be; a normal human little person who had trained himself to be a super-skilled fighter.
That explains why my memory of the early Alpha Flight comics I collected back in the day didn't portray him as having super powers.
I hate that retcon bs.
I'm currently reading John Byrne's Alpha Flight omnibus (which is awesome BTW) and its seems to depict Puck very clearly as being a highly trained normal guy with dwarfism. Essentially he's Batman with a little person condition. I like that way better than being a mutate.
Although he also says "eh" all the time, which gets annoying after awhile.
Oh my god that’s awful. If we ever get Puck in the MCU, they better portray him the way he was meant to be
A well trained little person would be pretty useless.
I've only experienced Puck in Immortal Hulk and he is extra spicy in every scene he's in. We need more of Puck everywhere.
Agree 100%
@Boone Kai y'all some real clever bots.
Right!? He's honestly become one of my favorite comic book badasses!
Not a huge fan of it over-emphasizing he fought alongside a bunch of nun-raping, body-desecrating anarchists. But there wasn't really a good side to find in that fight. I mean, maybe the Carlists.
Dude is like a swiss army knife with all those skills in a compact stature
Alpha Flight is a great team that *deserves* more love!
They deserve a movie
Canada...fuck yea!
@@chriscolquitt1852 Totally Agree 💯
WOW! Puck was markedly changed from his original inception. He was "just" a man with dwarfism who disciplined himself to become a top-level athlete, gymnast and, skilled fighter.
Puck is more like how Wolverine was originally imagined than what Wolverine became.
I've always loved Puck.
I loved this creation by Chris Clairemont and John Byrne.
This dude literally Fought his way Back To life And you gave Him A 6,Being a respected Friend of Wolverine alone gives him a strong 8
Not only that, I see a love interest with puck and Captain Marvel. literally Krillin and 18s relationship.
Should have got a 4... Because every time I see his face I picture Tyrion Lannister!! (OH THE HORROR! CAN SOMEONE PLEASE CALL MY THERAPIST!)
Yea that rating seemed kinda low. lol
Okay I've read the comments A 7!
Facts
I like Puck. I mean he's not the super mutant that we love to see, but I could see him in a X-MEN movie getting into some good fights..
He's not a mutant but a mutate, a human who's been changed. Like Spider-man.
Puck was the man in those early Alpha Flight Comics in the 80's! I haven't followed him in any of the newer books. Thanks for doing this one!
I got you, bro! 🏆👍🏽
Alpha Flight has always been underrated and they need a movie..
And in that movie Puck should be played by AEW wrestler John Silver.
PUCK was low key one of my favorite just couldn’t find enough comics on him but the ones I found I loved
Oooooo so that's how puck and wolverine know eachother he's born in the 1900's ok that makes sense. Another good one 👍💪
Also both Canadians
They were also on Alpha Flight together
Me: sees title......
Is this a personal attack or something?
If anything you should feel proud of being called that, bi tch, now thats more of a personal attack
😅👍🏽 Nah bro! At 5'11" I, myself, am not really tall or short. Just average and blending in. 😁👊🏽
@@NewSage I'm 5'6 and I'm short compared to most people. The thing about being short I hate the most is not being able to reach to get certain groceries at the store, or not being able to get on a rollercoaster. I'm an adult dammit, let me on! I've never been on a rollercoaster because of my height.
@@HeReS_JoHnNy-qc6vy poor thing
I don't think he's talking about that package.
Wow puck was a pertty interesting character they need to do an adventure of Wolverine & Puck comic🔥😎👍🏾
This guy is pucking cool! Would love to see him live action. Fantastic representation as well!
We need more puck, severely slept on.

Welp, I found Taskmasters best friend.
Puck was always one of my favorites but after hearing you explain more about him he's definitely a good choice 👍🏿👍🏿
I loved alpha flight and really liked Puck as a character. Thank you for sharing this!
No problem, bro! I appreciate you! 😎👊🏽
🤜🤛🏾
You can tell that Puck is REALLY from some type of inspiration of some dude that John Byrne saw, he wears a singlet that Olympic wrestlers do, wears ear guards, a chin guard, and he has Cauliflower ears.
ive been weighting for Alpha Team movie shows for a while and hes one of the reasons!!!
Thanks for this video. Always liked Puck!
Awwweee thanks for covering this... brings back my childhood
You taught me a lot about Puck. The original Marvel Handbook said he had no super powers, was at the level of an Olympic athlete at peak conditioning. They must have reckoned him and created a new origin. Glad that did so. I am surprised he only received a 6 rating though. Thanks for doing this video on a character who never got enough exposure.
Great video. I knew if Puck, but nothing about him. Thanks for the Comics Bro
Thanks, bro! 😎👊🏽 Glad you liked the vid! 🎬👍🏽
He seems like an interesting characther.💪
I always wanted to learn about him and his powers! Thanks 🙏🏾
Awesome. Good job. Thank you man
Puck getting some love.
I had always heard about puck but never knew about his powers. This was dope!
Heyy I hope everybody have a great day
You to brotha
Back atcha
Every squad got tha short boi u dnt mess wit
It goes to show, size doesn't matter.
Puck can be a kick ass character.
Dude he fights the chaos king mikaboshi & come backs from hell...he deserves to be atleast 7 or 8..
I could rock with a 7. 😁👍🏽
Great Video! Thanks for the spotlight on the character i never knew.
Glad to oblige, bro! I appreciate the support! 😎👊🏽
*The Ultimate Manlet.*
Finially, a hero i can relate too.
Under four feet tall and almost 300 pounds. That is one heavy little dude.
Wow I never knew what this guy's powers were because he doesn't show up that often and when he does he doesn't really display his powers (recently i.e. the immortal hulk). Great video
Puck was maybe the one of three people of comics that I got a book for him hulk and Wolverine I give a 8
Always been one of my favorite characters
Pucks a badass
Never knew anything about Puck. Always thought he was an interesting character from AF. Great review as always.
I always liked this dude. Thanks for all the deets.
The other time he got his height back was in a very fun Wolverine arc from the Hama/Silvestri run in which Logan and Puck were time displaced to the Spanish civil war. If you have Marvel Unlimited it's well worth the read.
I have that one and you're right it's worth the read.
Can't WAIT to see one of my favorite characters, Puck, and the rest of Alpha Flight in the MCU.
Omega Level!!!
Wolverine:
**sighs in relief**, looks like i aint the smallest no more
Truly took over my mind in 1983 and was like my hero due to his total uniqueness
Puck deserves a 7.5 at the very least. Respectfully.
Damn, this little guy no joke!!!
Had no idea puck was that powerful
Wow, I thought he was a bit of a odd sort of hero, but after this I have to say I like his character!
Me: *literally fights my way out of Hell*
New Sage: 6/10
I'll admit I did not know all of this about the character Puck, I always thought that he was a mutant little person with speed and agility much like Beast from X-Men. See this is another of those outstanding examples of why I say like always fantastic, fun, very enjoyable, not to mention very informative narration, video and content my brother New Sage. May GOD continue to bless you and your family with all of HIS blessings and my you continue to let HIS blessings flow and shine in the name of our Lord and savior JESUS CHRIST by the power of the HOLY SPIRIT. So please my brother keep shining, stay encourage, keep inspiring all as you do and stay frosty cause you know and I know that they don't cooler then you my brother.
Yeah! He has more abilities than seem apparent. 😁💪🏽 And I WILL stay encouraged. Thanks for the uplifting and support, brother! May God bless you for your consistent witnessing and encouragement. Stay 🧊😎, my dude!
Just a heads up, a new GAMMA FLIGHT comic series is coming out June 23rd! PUCK will be one o the essential characters in the series! I cannot wait!
Great video! Keep it up
Puck could give many strong characters a run for their money.. Like they should have him n moonknight share a story for the fact they have kinda like similar backgrounds..
Or him n Wolverine.. Him n his children who all got some special..
Puck Rules ! , Thanks Sage !!!
😎👊🏽
Loved Puck growing up. He never had his own comic. He showed up in odd places.
I actually would like to see puck in the mcu I think he would be a great addition
New sage a new subscribe and do how strong would a viltrumite kryptonite hybrid be
Glad to have you onboard! I appreciate the support! 😎👊🏽 And yeah... A Kryptonian / Viltrumite would just be absurdly powerful! 😬 Period. 😅
Good video idea though but comic explain did what if hulk was a red lantern
Nobody else has done a video on it plus it could be some thing new
My man Puck!
What the Puck!
Finally someone that Wolverine can look down on.
What the Puck?!?! I'm just seeing this because YT isn't sending out notifications again. 🤦♂️
There he is! 😁👊🏽 Yeah man. There has been a bit of slacking on the part of the system for awhile. 🤷🏽♂️ Maybe they'll get it together soon. 😎👍🏽
Puck- the Little Man who can do anything.
He talking about he has low limit strength being able to lift 10 tons🤔
That is a crazy life. Thanks for the info.
I love puck!!
Puck deserves to be in a movie
I was swear no one is ever dead. den reading Alpha Flight since the mid-80's. I read the Bulk book when the entire team got killed by the collective. Thought that was as it. Oh well... I miss Snowbird.
Don't worry she's still alive.
The man is back!
He was one of my favs.
I legit thought his name was a reference to the William Shakespeare character for the longest time. It never occurred to me that he was supposed to be a human hockey puck (to be fair I didn’t know what his powers where, i thought he was just super strong)
Double meaning.
Can you do comic book origin of DC Orion and Marvel's Jack of hearts?
I got you on these, and your other suggestions. 🤓👍🏽
Good vid good vid
I'm still waiting on the Death's Head joint. Lol.
Bro with the info u provide u ever thought about doing whole comic books bro?? And also its perfect predator season coming spring here almost my guy hope u good and be safe great vid btw never heard of this one so thanks for something to research
My dude! 😎👊🏽 Yeah. I considered whole storylines at the start of the channel. But wanted to take a uniquely different format, since several others already do that. And I'm doing well, considering 👍🏽... It's gonna soon be a year since I've uploaded anything to PP! 🤦🏽♂️ Focus, self... Focus. 😐🐅 Thanks for the consistent, needed motivation, bro! 😎💪🏽
I saw him on the x men cartoon on alpha flight.
I remember when they announced that Peter Dinklage was going to be in an Xmen movie and I got really excited thinking he would be Puck. So disappointed.
Same here. :(
PuckMann!
True power is dense and concentrated
Love him
I agree with dude before. Puck deserves an 8. He’s usually always the last guy standing the most skilled and the most personality.
I thought Puck was a stupid character. But after this video... Thumbs up.
Didn't realize Puck had superhuman strength.
Yeah that's a new one on me
I forgot about this dude. Good cover bro
Glad to jog the memory banks! 🤓👍🏽 I appreciate you, too! 😎👊🏽
I'm 46 years old and I remember seeing them as a kid when I was like eight and ten but I didn't read the comments much and they never put them in the X-Men cartoons
MULTIPLE MAN. MULTIPLE MAN. MULTIPLE MAN. MULTIPLE MAN. MULTIPLE MAN. MULTIPLE MAN.
😁👍🏽 Duly noted!
Man puck seems cool af
Big thinks come in small packages
Hey that sounds like me!
Holy heck you're not from Canada too are you?
rw:little man ,big heart.
Never mess with a short person puck a example that will put you on the hospital
Should do one on Sasquatch from alpha flight ik we know some about him but just a thought lol
Already got you, bro 🤓👍🏽... ruclips.net/video/PJLSOTyqoXo/видео.html
Pretty cool, never heard about him b4
I knew Puck was useless when Marina tore out his guts in the 2nd issue of Alpha Flight.
Puck is a very underrated character
There has to be an Alpha Flight series on Disney+, let us pray.
I've been pushing for this myself.
