Dwarves is an American punk rock band formed in Chicago, Illinois, as The Suburban Nightmare, in the mid-1980s. They are currently based in San Francisco, California. Formed as a garage punk band, their career subsequently saw them move in a hardcore direction before settling into an eclectic punk rock sound emphasizing intentionally shocking lyrics. They have been described as "one of the last true bastions of punk rock ideology in the contemporary musical age".
There are different types of Dwarves that appear in Marvel Comics. The most common of the Dwarves are the ones that are based on the Dwarves of Norse Mythology. They frequently appear in stories featuring the superhero Thor.
