Hugh "Wee Hughie" Campbell is a fictional character and the protagonist of the comic book series The Boys and its spin-offs Herogasm and Highland Laddie, created by Garth Ennis and Darick Robertson and visually designed after Simon Pegg. He is a member of The Boys, a group of vigilantes led by Billy Butcher. After the accidental death of his girlfriend Robin at the hands of the so-called superhero A-Train, he joins the Boys to get vengeance on superheroes, who are artificially created by the mega-conglomerate Vought-American. Hughie appears in the Amazon Prime Video television adaptation of the series as one of the main protagonists, where he serves as the moral compass and voice of reason of the Boys.

Hughie is portrayed by Jack Quaid in the television adaptation and resulting franchise, developed by Eric Kripke, with Simon Pegg portraying his father in the first, third and fourth seasons; while Pegg was originally attached to star in the series as Hughie, before development hell rendered him too old for the role, he would eventually voice the character in the animated anthology series The Boys Presents: Diabolical. Quaid's portrayal of the character has been praised by fans and critics alike.
