eer

Did you guys even see Thing's fight with WWHulk? I would say Ben is stronger. Colossus is like 75 tons or so. Ben is 85 last I knew.

Officially in the Marvel handbooks they have listed Colossus as class 100, I believe they still list Thing at class 80

Do you have a scan of the issue that put Colossus at Class 100? I've heard of this but thought it was a myth. The lengend if you will.

Yep

I looked through his respect thread but didn't see them. Too many pages to go through and the links don't work for me.

I did like the Sasquatch thread though. Respect threads on here are cool.

Wow, there's two different ones. I just remember the old ones where he was listed at 70 tons but then they go on to mention being he's a teenager his strength isn't peaked out yet. Makes sense I guess considering he was like 16 when he joined the team.

In the Marvel Encyclopedia [DK Publishing] that came out in 2006 list Colossus to be able to press just 70 tons and Thing 85 tons. However, not sure how reliable that book is though, so take it with a grain of salt. I generally take on-panel feats over handbooks any day

There was a new Sasquatch respect thread made recently by yours truely, click here! 😖hifty:

Thanks for the Sasquatch link. Is the Machine Man fight in there?

Meh! Sasquatch is listed just 70 tons in the Marvel handbooks even though direct feats and quotes contradict that

Yep, and it's also in the Machine Man respect thread, which you can view in my sig

I saw a Saquatch bio where he was Class 90.

Class 90 means you can press 75-90 tons.

Pretty much. Thing did way better than Piotr in WWH.

I see. But 70 tons wouldn't qualify for Class 90. So maybe Marvel bumped him up a little ayways.

Naaa...few bios list him as class 75 as well, either way it's wrong as he to can increase his strength via rage or pain like the Hulk. He gets the boost from the Elder God, Tanaraq.

Thing has ribs?

I remember Hulk breaking Ben's ribs. That was right before he left for Sakarr I think.

And yea, Ben was one-shotted but he landed some nice shots also.
