He's really close to it, tbh
If the thread is "who are the 10 most powerful bricks" he isn't on the list. However, in terms of a slugfest, his powerset makes him sort of the "anti-brick", as it is pretty much impossible to put him down by force. In theory (and in a forum match, lol), he could trade punches with any of the most powerful bricks... forever(?).

rhino?
Rhino started way lower and is chiefly a Spider-Man villain (spider-man "defeated" juggernaut once also). Juggernaut started out as too much for the collective x-men team and then soon after he's fighting thor and savage hulk, losing in humiliating fashion.
His creed of being unstoppable is only matched my how consistently foolishly he squanders his power.

I wont argue with you there, just sayin is all, Rhino is pretty much just a waste of potential. At least there are some glory days for Juggs.
Originally posted by Oliver Northhis name is rhino and he's a thug who just rams into shit with his face. No potential other than doing that same thing even harder.

Juggernaut was touted as being more, but it never really hapoened for more than a few issues here and there for short stints within those sparse occurrences. Then the power went to someone else even. Now he's a stereotypical "strong guy" every team just has.
The man sucks

All Hail... The Classic Glob!!!

This Glob?

You obviously have access to the scans of the entire stories. So, be honest. The first group only showed the end of the story, after Glob was tampered with by the Entropists. He is turned into a mud-monster and isn't even the Glob "proper". This is why there is a difference in Glob's appearance between the scan I listed and the scans you listed.
And, the other scan that you showed, along with ST and professor Hulk is NOT "Classic Glob".
Originally posted by Oliver NorthI'll be honest too: I only know a lot about the Glob because I grew up with an older cousin who's favorite character was Hulk and his favorite stories included the Glob. Obviously, because back then, Glob was one of the first characters that was actually shown as a threat to overpower Hulk.
I'll be honest, that is my limited familiarity with Glob.
So, if a large dirt-mound, leaf-pile or mud puddle was found for a "super-battle", I, being the younger cousin, was usually forced to take the part of the Hulk, getting the crap beaten out of me by my cousin, the Glob. 😆
Honestly, the Glob would not be much of a threat to more versatile characters. But, until Marvel started spewing out 100-tonner after 100-tonner, Glob had the tools to be a brick-buster. Top tier-strength, but almost impossible to harm him with equal force.
