His name derived from the archaic word "quicksilver," which meant mercury (in the sense of the metallic element Hg that's liquid at room temperature). This name, in turn, derives from the fact that mercury looks silvery but moves as though it's alive ("quick").

* FantasticRacism: Ironically, despite the anti-mutant racism he's experienced his entire life, he was vehemently opposed to Wanda's relationship with Vision on account of the latter being a robot. Moondragon psychically "cured" Pietro of this prejudice, but he later returned to hating Vision during his brief FaceHeelTurn in the 80s.

* DisproportionateRetribution: He once betrayed the Avengers, framed them for treason and then tried to kill them due to a series of slights (both real and imagined). These supposed offenses included the way his teammates approved of Wanda's marriage to Vision despite Pietro's objections, as well as the time they accidentally left him behind in Australia after their battle with the Sentinels. Even his biggest gripe, Crystal's infidelity, hardly justified attempted murder, especially since the Avengers ''[[MisplacedRetribution had nothing to do with it]]''.

* InertiaIsACruelMistress: During his Heel periods he's often been defeated this way; indeed, his very first appearance had him defeated by Angel tricking him into running into a wall. Amusingly, he once used this to his advantage when fighting a Sentinel that had absorbed his powers.

* LoveTriangle: He was briefly in one with his estranged wife Crystal and their fellow Avenger Black Knight during the 90s. Black Knight eventually backed off after Pietro and Crystal tried to repair their marriage.


Added DiffLines:

* PutOnABus: Roy Thomas got rid of Quicksilver ''twice'' during the original ''Avengers'' run. The first time was when Pietro and his amnesiac sister temporarily rejoined Magneto's Brotherhood, and the second was when an injured Pietro was accidentally left behind in Australia after the team's battle against the Sentinels. The second exit proved to be much longer-lasting, as he was soon found by Crystal, who took him back to Attilan. He would not return to being an active Avenger until the 90s, not long before the ''Comicbook/{{Onslaught}}'' crossover.

* ''ComicBook/AllNewXFactor''



* HeroicSacrifice: During ''Avengers: No Surrender'', he runs himself into another dimension stopping the device freezing all the other heroes from working.
* HolierThanThou: On his worse days, Quicksilver is quick to cast scorn on others while completely ignoring his own mistakes and flaws. During his rock-bottom moment in ''X-Factor'' vol 3, he even actually described himself as being "holier than thou" without irony.



* LaserGuidedKarma: Given Pietro was the one who pushed the mentally unstable Wanda into causing the whole ''House of M'' mess, his depowering was the least he deserved. Shame he's never shown any real repentance for that specific part of his life (just the consequences).



* TheMole: Joined Serval Industries' X-Factor mainly to keep an eye on Polaris for Havok.

Two unrelated movie franchises see differing interpretations of Quicksilver. Creator/EvanPeters (of ''Series/AmericanHorrorStory'' fame) appears as ''Peter'' Maximoff in the ''Film/XMenFilmSeries'', debuting in Creator/BryanSinger's ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'' and reprising the role in ''Film/XMenApocalypse''. The Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse saw Creator/AaronJohnson take on the role in Creator/JossWhedon's ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'' after appearing in TheStinger of ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier''. A complication in Creator/MarvelStudios' movie rights agreements means that Quicksilver cannot be referred to as a mutant in the MCU, while he cannot be an Avenger in the ''X-Men'' flicks. With Disney's impending buyout of 20th Century Fox, it's unknown how this situation will be resolved.

* AdaptationalBadass: He's much more powerful and more prominent in the Film/XMenFilmSeries than his adaptational counterpart from the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse and arguably even his original comic incarnation.


Added DiffLines:

* HumiliationConga: Time hasn't been kind to this speedster. From being a founding member of the Avengers and having his own limited series in the '90s, he commits a pivotal NiceJobBreakingItHero during the ''ComicBook/HouseOfM'' event, is accidentally depowered in the event's aftermath, was divorced by Crystal after breaking Inhuman law and insulting Inhuman culture in a ProfessorGuineaPig scheme, and ultimately lost his powers '''again''' and was reduced to homelessness and being jailed for vagrancy. He inexplicably regained his powers, but has pinballed aimlessly since, mostly being used as an UnwittingPawn for villains like Cthton and the High Evolutionary.


Added DiffLines:

* ProfessorGuineaPig: He's not a professor, but he did play this trope otherwise to the hilt when he exposed himself to the Terrigen Mists in a desperate bid to regain his powers. In the classic spirit of the trope, it worked only to become a case of BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor.


* CurbStompBattle: Has a few to his name, but his most spectacular one involved Mr. X, whose shtick was reading his opponent's mind to determine what they were going to do before they even did it. He tried this with Pietro and learned that Pietro was going to beat him half to death with a metal pipe. The only problem was that Pietro was moving far too fast for Mr. X to affect the outcome of this in the slightest, meaning that yes, he did get his ass thoroughly beat. Oh, and the kicker? X was in possession of the Spear of Odin at the time, making this double as a CrowningMomentOfAwesome for Pietro.

to:

%%* ArrowCatch* ArchEnemy: Fabian Cortez and Exodus both serve this role to him, being both mutants who have embraced Magneto's legacy of [[SuperSupremacist Super Supremacy]]. Cortez was the first of them to hit the scene and tried to play the EvilMentor to Pietro for a little while (he wouldn't have any of it) but it was Exodus and his threatening of Luna during the ''ComicBook/BloodTies'' event that earned Pietro's hatred. Ironically, the two are friends and allies in the ComicBook/AgeOfApocalypse.

* MagicCompass: A living version, as his powers allow him to sense magnetic vibrational patterns and always tell which direction is north.

* SpeedBlitz: He's fond of combining this with CrissCrossAttack to dismantle his foes.
* SuperReflexes: His reflexes are canonically stated to be better than those of the finest human athletes. Even in early appearances he was capable of feats such as dodging close range optic blasts courtesy of Cyclops, and he's only gotten faster on the ball since then.



* SuperSupremacist: A mild version to be sure, but Pietro's natural arrogance and sense of superiority leads him to often view ordinary humans with disdain. He doesn't go full villain about it like his father or other mutant baddies, but sometimes he's toed the line (such as when he joined his father's cabinet during his stint as Genosha's dictator).



* TookALevelInJerkass: He was always arrogant and hard to get along with, but in UsefulNotes/TheBronzeAgeOfComicBooks, writer Steve Englehart made him an out-and-out bigot who broke off his relationship with his sister over her relationship with the Vision.

to:

* TookALevelInBadass: During the "Siege of Wundagore" storyline his Super Speed was amped up to pre-[[ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths Crisis]] Franchise/{{Superman}} levels by the High Evolutionary's [[SuperSerum Isotope E]], allowing him to defeat Exodus (who ironically is a Superman-level mutant, and leagues more powerful than Quicksilver normally).
* TookALevelInJerkass: He was always arrogant and hard to get along with, but in UsefulNotes/TheBronzeAgeOfComicBooks, writer Steve Englehart made him an out-and-out bigot who broke off his relationship with his sister over her relationship with the Vision. His ''ComicBook/UltimateXMen'' incarnation also took several levels following the ''Ultimatum'' event.
* TouchedByVorlons: After decades of being a mutant, the most recent (as of 2019) interpretation of Pietro is that he is in fact an ordinary human being who was empowered as a baby by the High Evolutionary.
* TurnOutLikeHisFather: With his father being who he is, this is a concern for several characters. Despite their antipathy for each other, Pietro and his father share a mutual arrogance, and some villains such as Fabian Cortez have even attempted to exploit this by tempting him to take a more active role in mutant affairs.

When Wanda responds to this by pointing out that ''she'' uses magic, he is quick to remind her of how much pain it's brought her, ending his talk with a simple "magic sucks!"


Added DiffLines:

* ItsAllAboutMe: During the third ''Uncanny Avengers'' volume, he attempted to claim superiority over the team, stating that he had been an Avenger longer than any of them. ComicBook/TheWasp (a ''founding'' member) is quick to call him out on this.

* NeverMyFault: Another of his major faults. After a poorly-thought out attempt of his to stop the Juggernaut results in Synapse being gravely injured, he ends up blaming everyone else for it. Wanda is quick to point out Synapse was injured because of him, angrily calling him out on letting his {{Pride}} blind him to the truth, and telling him that he will not be welcome on the team again until he admits to his mistake.

Dubbed "Cap's Kooky Quartet", the new Avengers have difficulty measuring up to the original heroes until battles against [[ConquerorFromTheFuture Kang the Conqueror]] and Doctor Doom give the team much-needed credibility. Unfortunately the team chemistry is shaken after the Scarlet Witch is wounded in battle with Magneto at a UN assembly, which, combined with Pietro's general distrust of humanity, prompts the twins to leave the Avengers and rejoin the Brotherhood.
