Bulk And Skull
Farkas "Bulk" Bulkmeier and Eugene "Skull" Skullovitch are fictional characters in the Power Rangers universe. They appeared as permanent cast members from ''Mighty Morphin Power Rangers'' until ''Power Rangers in Space''. Bulk was a recurring character in ''Power Rangers Lost Galaxy'', along with ''Power Rangers Samurai'' and '' Power Rangers Super Samurai'', but the duo never returned together as permanent cast members. Bulk and Skull are portrayed by Paul Schrier and Jason Narvy respectively. Character overview Bulk was the dominant member of the duo. His appearance resembled a heavyset teenage punk. Skull was lean and wore more formal attire. Skull often emulated Bulk's behavior or agreed with his statements. The duo provided slapstick comic relief to the franchise. The duo came with their own theme; a musical combo of Skull's whiny laugh and Bulk's "fat guy tuba." Their actions were punctuated by cartoon sound effects.
