Quill (or in one case, Quills) has been the name of four different fictional comic book characters appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics.
The Warpie known as Quill first appeared in Captain Britain, vol. 2 #7 and was created by Jamie Delano and Alan Davis.
Quill is one of the Warpies, a group of superhumans created by the Jaspers' Warp. Quill and his fellow Warpies were taken in by the British government organization, the Resources Control Executive (the R.C.X.). Quill and several of the Warpies were trained for combat and formed the Cherubim. Quill was their leader and they attacked Captain Britain, but were later taken in by him and his sister Elizabeth Braddock.
The Warpies were later abducted by the new R.C.X. and again came into conflict with Captain Britain, who was now part of Excalibur. The Warpies were all slowly turning into humans, but the new R.C.X. had told them that they were dying. Excalibur uncovered the truth and told the Warpies. They also freed the original leaders of the R.C.X. and left the Warpies in their care.
The Warpies were again abducted shortly afterwards by Black Air, another government organisation. Black Air experimented upon the Warpies in an attempt to keep them superhuman. Their experiments succeeded, but the Warpies were saved by Mastermind who made them his soldiers. Quill was one of his most loyal soldiers. Under Mastermind's leadership, the Warpies attacked and destroyed most of the Captain Britain Corps. They were defeated by Captain Britain, who then used his new powers to turn the Warpies, including Quill, into regular humans.
Quill's body is covered in barbs and he had razorsharp claws.
A mutant using the code name Quill first appeared in Captain America, vol. 1 #343. He was created by Mark Gruenwald and Kieron Dwyer.
