Line 90:
* [[Alpha Flight]]'s Puck. Shorter than Wolverine, hits just as hard. Even in a prequel story before he lost his height completely, fulfilled this trope.
* [[Spider-Man]], while average by real life standards (5'10"), is practically a midget compared to the vast majority of his allies and enemies. [[Wolverine]] being the notable and perhaps only exception.
** Early in his career, Spidey went up against a trio of crooks called the Enforcers, one of which was "Fancy Dan" Brito. Only 5'3'', he was nonetheless a black belt in Karate and Judo, able to take down men much larger than he was.
* Rorschach in ''[[Watchmen (comics)|Watchmen]]'' is an unassuming man who stands 5'4, yet frequently kicks bar-fulls of ass. Interestingly, he wears thick-soled shoes to make himself look taller.
* Lately, [[X-Men/Characters/90s Members|Jubilee]]. A petite teenaged girl who, on the [[New Warriors]], used [[Power Fist|power gauntlets]] to become the most physically powerful member of the team.
Line 98 ⟶ 99:
* Young Scrooge in ''[[The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck]]''. He is only half the size of most other ([[Petting Zoo People|dog-nosed]]) characters, but he fights like a force of nature. And for that matter, also [[Disney Ducks Comic Universe|Old Scrooge]], his [[Donald Duck|nephew Donald]] and some other members of their family show tendencies in that direction.
* Molly 'Bruiser' Hayes from ''[[Runaways]]'' is a superstrong mutant and a preteen girl. Marvel's website actually named her the fourth toughest female on their roster, following [[She Hulk]], [[Ms. Marvel]], and [[X-Men/Characters/80s Members|Rogue]].
