Thumbelina is a mutant super villain in the Marvel Comics universe most well known as a member of the Mutant Liberation Front.

Fictional character biography

Thumbelina has the mutant ability to shrink her body while increasing her strength at the same time. She was often picked on by the other members of the team, particularly Wildside and Strobe. Stryfe often kept Thumbelina in the reserves, and only sent her out when he absolutely needed to. Because of her weight, she would get tired very easily, especially when Tempo used her time altering powers to grant the team super speed.

However, Thumbelina's powers were useful to the group, as she provided easy access to difficult areas; she also became skilled in using her power for sneak attacks. In one mission, Thumbelina was able to repair a bomb that was severed by gunfire, and enabled the Mutant Liberation Front to succeed in their mission. She was later sent to release the captured Nasty Boys, Slab and Hairbag. Slab, Thumbelina's brother, has the complementary ability to grow in size to an extent, and they have a close relationship together. Her only friend in the Mutant Liberation Front was Dragoness, who was the only member that didn't make fun of her.

Thumbelina was most recently seen in the X-Force mini-series in 2005. It is unknown if Thumbelina retained her powers after Decimation; she was not mentioned in the 198 Files nor in New Avengers.

Other versions

Thumbelina appeared in "What if?" #46-47 as a member of the Mutant Liberation Force that battled the Fantastic Four and later joined Magneto after the death of Stryfe.
