Has anyone heard of a Marvel hero named Quicksilver?

I got an Marvel figure of a hero named Quicksilver and I first saw him featured in the app Marvel Strike Force and from what I learned about him Quicksilver moves really fast and quick as his name suggests. I also learned that he is Wanda's brother and appeared in a Halloween themed episode of Wandavision. He has white hair with a black streak similar to TV host Jay Leno and looks cool from what I saw of Quicksilver. When did Quicksilver debut in Marvel Comics?

Don’t know about the comics but they introduced Pietro aka Quicksilver along with his sister Wanda into the MCU in The Avengers Age of Ultron. Aaron Taylor-Johnson played him.

There is also a Quicksilver character in Fox’s X-Men movies -the ones with Fassbender, McAvoy, Jennifer Lawrence era ones. I forget which specific movie he was in. I think it’s Days of Future Past but not totally sure.

Thisis correct. Interestingly, in WandaVision, they had the Fox version of the character show up, one of the first "multiverse" things they did. Anyway, yes, Quicksilver is the brother of Scarlet Witch and has speed powers. In the comics he was traditionally not so fast as say, The Flash, so it's a little bit more down to earth on that front. The characters were originally introduced as members of Magneto's Brotherhood of Evil Mutants and presumably Magneto was their father. That parentage has been questioned and changed over the yers, but the characters very quiclky truned on Magneto and joined The Avengers along with Hawkeye in the first big lineup change, sometimes referred to as "Cap's Kooky Quartet."

Quicksilver and Hawkeye are best friends? I didn't even know that and that's amazing. I also found out that in X-Men Days Of Future Past that Quicksilver is played by Evan Peters and supposedly made an appearence in Deadpool and Deadpool 2 and is talked about in Deadpool And Wolverine too
Thanks so much for the info Brian

Oh, they are not best friends. Hawkeye was a reformed thief that joined the Avengers at the same time as Quicksilver and Scarlet With. In fact, bot are pretty headstrong and clashed a lot.
