I havent really seen any vs. threads and in my opinion they are quite fun.
So Im going to kick a vs. thread off and see how it goes.
Vs. : The Hulk vs. The Thing
I bring this one up because I really lack knolege about the thing and would find this battle interesting.
for information on the two Wikipedia is the best resource.
POWERS AND ABILITYS
the Hulks powers:
The Hulk is easily one of the physically strongest characters in the Marvel Universe. The most well-known incarnation, Savage Hulk, possesses limitless superhuman strength which increases proportionally to his level of anger or emotional distress. During the Secret Wars limited series, he is shown supporting a 150 billion ton mountain.
The Hulk is depicted with a high resistance to physical damage. He is shown withstanding the impact of high-caliber artillery shells, falls from orbital heights, and powerful energy blasts without sustaining injury and resisting extreme temperatures, poisons, and diseases with no ill effect. In addition, the Hulk's body regenerates damaged or destroyed areas of tissue at an accelerated rate. Similar to his strength, his durability increases with his emotional stress.
In addition to his physical power and healing ability, the Hulk demonstrates the ability to "home in" on the desert base where he was empowered.
He can also see and hear spectres, such as the astral form of Doctor Strange. There is further evidence that the Hulk is highly resistant to telepathic abilities; for instance, he is the only being in the Marvel Universe who still remembered the Sentry after Robert Reynolds wiped all memories of himself from the world.
The things powers:
The Thing possesses vast superhuman strength, endurance, and durability. The cosmic ray bombardment caused his musculature, bone structure, internal organ composition, soft-tissue structure and skin to greatly increase in toughness and density as a rock like substance.
The Thing can exert himself at high levels for about a day before being significantly weakened by the effort. The Thing's lungs are of greater volume and efficiency than a normal man, enabling him to hold his breath underwater for several times longer than a normal human. The Thing's five senses can withstand greater amounts of sensory stimuli than he could when he was a normal human being, with no reduced sensitivity save in his sense of touch. The Thing's body is able to withstand temperature extremes for some time before feeling the effects. He can withstand the effects of armor-piercing shells against his skin with no injury. He is still susceptible to colds, disease, and emotional stress.
Unlike the Hulk, the Thing has suffered no loss in intelligence nor change in personality in his transformation to his monstrous form.
The Thing is typically able to hold his own amongst the strongest superhumans due to his indominitable resolve, tough rocky hide, and exceptional fighting skills he learned as a normal human. Grimm has admitted to spending "countless" hours in his campus' boxing ring while in college, and has demonstrated advanced knowledge and skill with that style of fighting. Characters with superhuman strength tend to lack real fighting skills, having always had the luxury of relying on brute force alone, which gives him an edge against other super-strong opponents.
It has been been put forth by some that the Thing's strength may be in the class 100 range by now, but it remains the province of speculation as all official sources still list his strength in the 85 ton range. What is fairly certain is that despite any increases, his strength is still inferior to beings such as Hulk, Thor, Gladiator
now I understand that the thing could never beat the hulk in a strong man contest but. he lacks no itelligence while the bruce in the form of the hulk lacks a whole lot.
refferences are greatly aproved. and may be asked of.
