Quiet Bill (William Krimpton) is a mutant in the Marvel Comics universe, an ally of the X-Man Gambit. First appearing in Gambit vol. 3, #3 (April 1999), the character was created by Fabian Nicieza and Steve Skroce.

Within the context of the comics, Quiet Bill is a mutant who can open portals between dimensions. Coming to the notice of the enigmatic New Son, the mutant known as Courier is employed to retrieve Quiet Bill and his friend Huey. The New Son sought to employ Bill's talent to find a dimension to which he could flee.

Bill is discovered living in an alley dubbed "Onslaught Alley" by Courier and Gambit. Bill and Huey are trapped between dimensions when the New Son's Crystal Cathedral is destroyed.

Quiet Bill loses his powers during the M-Day, and is murdered by Riptide of the Marauders.

Famous quotes containing the words quiet and/or bill:

    Night’s brittle song, silver-thin
    Shatters into a billion fragments
    Of quiet shadows
    At the blaring jazz
    Of a morning sun.
    Frank Marshall Davis (b. 1905)

    The first year was critical to my assessment of myself as a person. It forced me to realize that, like being married, having children is not an end in itself. You don’t at last arrive at being a parent and suddenly feel satisfied and joyful. It is a constantly reopening adventure.
    —Anonymous Mother. From the Boston Women’s Health Book Collection. Quoted in The Joys of Having a Child, by Bill and Gloria Adler (1993)
