Leave it to Ben Grimm ( as written by Brian Michael Bendis) to ask one of the biggest, possibly more daunting question in the Marvel universe no one else ever thought to ask!

Bendis immediately captured what fans love about the Thing especially his humor. It was one line for comic relief that stuck in my head.
