What would happen if you crossed Jack Quaid with sugar, spice, and everything nice — and then added a dash of Chemical X?
The star of The Boys and My Adventures With Superman told Entertainment Weekly just that when he stopped by our 2026 San Diego Comic-Con studio to discuss his all-time favorite superheroes, including the titular heroines of The Powerpuff Girls.
While laying out his Superhero Mount Rushmore, a torn Quaid ultimately selected David Corenswet’s Superman, Jennifer Lawrence’s Mystique, Christian Bale’s Batman, and Shameik Moore’s Spider-Man (the Miles Morales incarnation). But he had to give a shout-out to an iconic cartoon trio.
“Can I just get an honorable mention for the Powerpuff Girls?” Quaid said. “Because my God, what a show.” Pleased with his handiwork, he added, “There we go. I’m building a new Mount Rushmore.”
Created by Craig McCracken, The Powerpuff Girls originally aired from 1998 to 2005, chronicling the animated adventures of a trio of genetically engineered girls who fight crime with their superpowers. The group consists of levelheaded leader Blossom, sweet-natured Bubbles, and spunky Buttercup.
Asked which Powerpuff Girl he’d be, Quaid answered quickly. “I’m definitely Bubbles,” he said. “I just know I am. I know this for a fact. Her vibe and my vibe are very similar.”
But his old roommates would disagree.
“In college I lived with these two guys and we rented an apartment and we painted our doors the Powerpuff Girl colors,” Quaid recalled, “and I believe they gave me Blossom. And I don’t know why, because I don’t think I’m the commander and the leader.”
Even so, he was ready to take up the mantle. “That’s what they bestowed upon me, so thank you, boys,” he said. “Thank you, college roommates Rob and Max.”
