The Ghost Who Walks
Gender: Male Location: |
Characters are regularly portrayed beyond their intended abilities to further the plot or story.
An example that comes to mind is Cassandra Cain dodging a sniper round mid-trajectory. This is clearly outside her capabilities since she doesn't have any superpowers.
The values that best represent the Thing, and superheroes in general, are the values given in the biographies, handbooks and comics; whereas the values estimated by fans tend to be inconsistent. The Thing is ranked a six out of seven in strength which translates to the 75 - 100 ton range, which correlates fairly well with the cutout above.
