the Absorbing Man
a Hasbro Marvel Legends figure
The Absorbing Man has fought many heroes in the Marvel Universe, among them Thor, the Incredible Hulk, and the Avengers. His deal is that he can absorb the physical properties of anything he touches, be it gas, liquid, solid or even pure energy. I imagine he has to concentrate on this quite a bit, otherwise he could get into quite a jam. I mean, he's probably very vulnerable to attack if he has to use the bathroom and doesn't keep his guard up: a man made of porcelain in a seated position wouldn't stand a chance when Hulk-goes-a-smashin'. Man, can't a guy go in peace?!
One of the reasons why I like visiting your blog so much is because it has become a daily reference I can use in order to learn new nice stuff. It's like a curiosities box that surprises you over and over again.
