Baby Tugs Bear

Baby Tugs Bear is one of the youngest Care Bears, appearing alongside sibling Baby Hugs Bear in Marvel's Star Comics adaptation of the beloved toy and cartoon franchise. As a baby bear, Tugs brings childlike wonder to the Care Bears' mission of spreading kindness.

Straight out of Marvel's Star Comics imprint in 1986, Baby Tugs Bear is one of the youngest and most endearing faces in the Care Bears comic universe, debuting in an era when Marvel was bringing beloved licensed characters to a whole new generation of young readers. This little one shares the page with some of the most iconic Bears around — Grumpy Bear, Tenderheart Bear, Funshine Bear, and the inseparable Baby Hugs Bear — making for a wonderfully warm corner of the Copper Age. Appearing across Care Bears, Star Comics Magazine, and Marvel Comics Presents Care Bears, Baby Tugs Bear may have a modest catalog footprint, but for fans of that cozy, colorful Star Comics era, spotting this tiny bear is a genuine treat.
