I like how Mr. Fixit's Mysterio toss takes out three Sinisters at once, and how his body language seems to be saying "Only THREE of you?! G'wan, geddoudahere!"

For the record, Peter's developed tons of dissolving agents for his own webbing over the years. I'm gonna choose to believe he's being an rear end in a top hat to Luke there.

Vicissitude posted:Probably Mr Fixit Hulk. Grey Hulk, but smart enough to get decently-tailored clothes. Not as strong as regular Hulk, but strong enough to whoop some rear end. There's a bit later in the issue where Lady Deathstrike cuts at the Hulk and he's mad because "These threads don't come off the rack!"

(Carrying people is reserved for pretty girls, obviously.) He has a utility belt! There's no reason he wouldn't carry at least one charge of solvent solution. What if he webs someone to a sewer wall and then there's a rush of water?

Also he strikes the same rib twice in sequence yet produces two clearly distinct tones. What are we to believe, this is some kind of magic xylophone? I sure hope somebody got fired for that one.

I just assume that he doesn't have enough money to make more because Jonah shorted him for his pictures and Aunt May needed to pay for her meds out of pocket or something. This also works for why he runs out of webbing!

Lurdiak posted:No he is not. Although the brick might tear off. How strong are they now, anyway? I remember owning an annual back in the late 80's early 90's where they were compared to the Fantastic Four - As flexable as Reed, disintergrate after a few hours, so untraceable a-la Sue, Torch can't burn them and they're strong enough to contain Thing. I hated the last one because I liked Thing, and I was getting fed up with my favourite Strong Guy constantly getting one-upped by other Strong Guys, like Thor and Hulk.

According to the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, Thing's Power Grid shows a Strength stat of 6 (Superhuman: Able to lift over 75 tons, up to 100 tons.), while Thor and Hulk are bot Strength 7 (7 = Incalculable: Able to lift in excess of 100 tons.). Maybe you should select a superior Strong Guy (but not Actual Strong Gut, who is off being the Supreme Lord of Hell or some poo poo.).

Hijo Del Helmsley posted:Strength isn't really Thing's deal anyway, it's durability. drat straight. The Champion, wielder of the Power Primordial, challenged Thing, Namor, Hulk, Colossus, Sasquatch, Thor, Doc Samson, and Wonder Man to a boxing match, and if Champion won, he'd blow up the planet or something. Thing is the only one who got to round 2.   Marvel Two-in-One Annual #7 (1982) according to Wikipedia. ... Namor was booted out for not doing what he was told, Thor was disqualified for throwing his hammer (he couldn't fight without it so they let him have it in the ring), Wonder Man blew everything up by accident and Champion wouldn't fight Hulk because he thought he was a dumb animal. So even in his one moment of badass, the comic has to write out the real threats in order to not show Ben up...

They even looped it back around to comics. There was an issue of Deadpool Team-Up (special guest the Thing) where an alien that acted like Randy Savage came to a wrestling show and challenged their best or he'd destroy the planet. Deadpool was all, "Weren't you on an episode of Dexter's Lab?" Meanwhile, Deadpool was there for the best reason. He figured that everyone would forgive him for all his past crimes if he just became a heel wrestler and turned face. Which, as a wrestling fan, is completely sound logic.

Let's revisit that for the very first storyline!"
