Ahhhh.... Young grasshopper your mind is tight, yet your facts are quite twisted. They actually "DID" say CL100 for Ben and not Omega or Alpha or Zeta or any other Greek letter for that matter. They said "CL100" which is the normal definition for MARVEL of what strength class again...?
The only Hercules version the Thing can beat is the one after the Onslaught battle, severly depowered, on the lowest grade of the Class 100 strength level.All the other versions would pummel him to the ground.Ben can lift approximately a hundred tons, or bit more than that.
He's a low step in the strength classifications for marvel standards.
And anybody who believes a no hammer using Thor could be beaten by the Thing is just saying crap.

No one said that was non-canon, however, the SHIELD 'class' system is not the handbook 'class' system. For example, Trauma was considered a class-omega threat. How many tons is omega, exactly?Later, he was downgraded to class-50. However, Trauma has no superhuman strength - he certainly isn't lifting fifty tons.
Put it this way. Even if Ben is "cl 100" wich he isent under 90% of the writers who got a hold on him, he would still in a clear lower bracet of the same class than the likes of Hercules are.
So he still loses, grasshoper.
i'm not sure about that. that sword can do a LOT of damage and they seem to be highlighting herc's h2h skills more. the shield would likely work on ben as well and the arrows would CERTAINLY allow herc to gain a quick advantage given the usuall starting distances. ben COULD win, but i think can still take some.
