In 1991, Marvel Comics, in association with New World television, developed Power Pack – a popular 80′s comic about four under-age siblings who gain incredible powers – into a live-action show for NBC’s Saturday morning lineup. Minor alterations to the concept were made for the pilot such as; unlike in the original comic the children’s parents are aware of their superhuman abilities, Julie’s acceleration power was altered to movement at superhuman speed – without the ability to fly, the “cloud” aspect of Jack’s density power was eliminated,he was now only able to shrink in size, and in the biggest change the children did not sport the colorful costumes they wore in the comics.The series failed to get picked up and the pilot was never aired on television.
