Stuff is a member of the Shi'ar Imperial Guard in the Marvel Comics universe. The character, created by Grant Morrison, first appeared in New X-Men #123 (April 2002).
Within the context of the stories, is a shapeshifter whose natural form resembles a green, cyclopean amoeba. After the Shi'ar Empress Lilandra Neramani, under the mental control of Professor X's twin sister Cassandra Nova, orders the destruction of all mutants on Earth, Stuff does advance scouting work for the Shi'ar by disguising himself as a mutant child called Kato at the Xavier Institute. His mind is wiped by the Stepford Cuckoos, and the mind of Cassandra Nova is trapped in his body.

Famous quotes containing the word stuff:
“The true reformer does not want time, nor money, nor coöperation, nor advice. What is time but the stuff delay is made of? And depend upon it, our virtue will not live on the interest of our money. He expects no income, but outgoes; so soon as we begin to count the cost, the cost begins. And as for advice, the information floating in the atmosphere of society is as evanescent and unserviceable to him as gossamer for clubs of Hercules.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The Same, the Same: friend and foe are of one stuff; the ploughman, the plough, and the furrow, are of one stuff; and the stuff is such, and so much, that the variations of form are unimportant.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Too much traffic with a quotation book begets a conviction of ignorance in a sensitive reader. Not only is there a mass of quotable stuff he never quotes, but an even vaster realm of which he has never heard.”
—Robertson Davies (b. 1913)
