Thing always was sort of the fat kid of the Marvel universe.

I really like the slippers. It's one of those things that I don't know if it was Wieringo's or Kesel's ideas, but its one of those great ways the art adds to the characters and their personalities. Because so what if the Thing's rock hard feet don't need to worry about getting cold... he's not going to lounge around the house like a putz.

Dunno. Little things like that, really shows off the depth the the medium can have, even in little on-offs like this.

Randall,

Thank you for pointing that out: the Thing wears footwear until it's time for his day to begin, when he takes it off to go out in public. Neat.
