10 BIGGEST Comic Book Characters (By Size)
These characters bring a whole new meaning to the phrase "larger than life."
A superhero is a person who can conquer any villain or threat, even when they seem completely outmatched. This is why it's so satisfying to see a superhero defeat an enemy far greater in size and strength.
But there are some comic characters whose size is incomprehensible. We're not talking about Juggernaut or Darkseid or Doomsday. Even massive characters like Fin Fang Foom, Godzilla, and Giganta are insignificantly tiny compared to some of the characters on this list. When a person called Giganta is considered too small, that should give you an idea of the scale we are talking about.
Imagine a superteam battling an enemy bigger than a city. Think of a superhero facing a planet-sized threat. Try picturing a character that is larger than the universe!
When titans of this magnitude appear in comics, it makes the characters question their role in the grand scheme of things. After all, it's nearly impossible not to feel somewhat insignificant while in the presence of one whose size cannot be quantified.
Let's have a look at the ten comic book characters who prove that size definitely does matter.
10. Apocalypse Beast
Approximate Size - 3 Miles.
This monstrosity only appeared in the absolutely bonkers 2006 series, the Fantastic Four & Iron Man: Big in Japan. The story begins with the Fantastic Four in Tokyo trying to stop kaiju from decimating the city. They learn from Dr. Yamane that the creatures awoke because they sensed that a monster from another dimension called the Apocalypse Beast was going to annihilate the planet.
At first, Yamane acted like he wanted to stop the creature. However, he eventually betrayed the superheroes, allowing the Apocalypse Beast to enter their world.
Although the Fantastic Four have faced many gargantuan monsters, the Apocalypse Beast is one of the biggest. The Beast is so large that when it begins to break through the Earth's surface, its thumb is clearly larger than the biggest skyscraper in Tokyo. The Beast stands three miles tall and weighs 1.6 billion tons.
(It's worth mentioning that the smallest entry in this article is 158 times bigger than the world's largest animal, the blue whale. This should give you an idea of how big the rest of these entries are going to be.)
