10 Most Powerful Characters Killed By The Punisher
4. The Thing
In Marvel Universe vs. The Punisher, a horrible virus ravaged the characters of the Marvel Universe, turning them into sadistic cannibals. Ben Grimm, aka, the Thing, was one of the first heroes infected, which left his allies running rampant, trying to come up with a cure.
Not only were they in a difficult position, trying to come up with a cure while the world devolved into a cannibalistic nightmare, but they were also thwarted at every turn by the infected. The Thing joined forces with an infected Hulk solely to stop any attempt at finding a cure.
Like the Hulk, he developed his own faction or tribe that included all manner of infected people serving him. He took up residence with this group in the old Baxter Building, which was abandoned when the virus began infecting superpowered folks like the Thing.
In the story, the Punisher spent a considerable amount of time trying to come up with a way to kill the Thing. After all, he's not easy to kill, but he ultimately decided to try armor-piercing missiles. It wasn't explicitly shown killing the Thing, but after the Punisher fired them into the Baxter Building, nobody, even the Thing, made it out alive.
