Caption Competition

Winner:
VIN-ES
Franklin: Hey, Ben?

Ben: Yeah, kid.

Franklin: Is steel stronger than rock?

Ben: Yeah it is. Why?

Franklin: Oh, no reason. Nevermind I asked.

(time passes after Franklin has continued on his way)

Ben: Hey, wait a minute!!!

It hurts me to give it to him as an F4 fan, but darn it, that's funny.
And now, the runner-ups!

In stark defiance of Steve's dictates, the Fantastic Four prepared to milk
Galactus' tractor.

The Old Bum
I'll take "strategically placed children" for 1000, Alex

The Old Bum
The Diary of Ben Grimm, July 21st, 2005: "I didn't know what to think when
the kid told me the truth. But if Reed wasn't his real father, who was? Then
I saw it... in his right hand..."

Thing: Hi...
Frank: Hi...
Thing: This is really heavy...

Superman; "I know I've never been a religious man, but if you're up there,
please, save me from this giant kid, Homer Simpson!"

Steve: ...Please tell me that we just can't SEE the shorts.

Aaron and Neal: ...Yeah, let's go with that.

Planet-man
Stan Lee: What are you doing with that old thing kid? Wouldn't you rather
play with a cool toy instead?
Kid: Ahh, but only Superman fits in my "Fortress of Solitude"!
Stan Lee: Oh, I don't know. I think the THING fits pretty good!
*crunch*
There you go!
Kid: Ahh, you broke my Fortress of Solitude!
Stan Lee: Broke....or made better? (walks away, humming the Spider-Man
theme)

Nice Simpsons reference. Pity Homer didn't get covered with superglue
and brick fragments, huh?

The Thing strains to lift Smallville-Lana's self-pity, without much success.

The DC/Marvel crossovers just keep getting cheaper and cheaper...

sneakymonkey
Thing: Hey, that's a nifty Supes toy ya got there. Franklin: Yeah, he talks,
too. (Pulls string.) Superman (singing): What do you do with a drunken
sailor? Thing: Okay...

Yep. The joke's still funny. To the newcomers, check the archives for
the last two months. You'll see.

MOTA
In spite of holding a crate full of all the money he made from the F4 movie,
the Thing is sad that it took Hollywood to help him beat the Hulk.

To be fair, the super rocky Thing once beat the Gray Hulk. But that's
the equivilant of Superman fighting Pee Wee Herman.

BMTelle
Thing: Who gave you that toy?
Franklin: My Mom, after I promised not to tell anyone I saw her on the cover
of Maxim.
