The Thing quizzes

Marvel’s superhero line rewards readers who like shared history: one title can bring in family members, battlefield idealists, armored problem-solvers, and volatile powerhouses without pretending they live in separate boxes. A quiz page in this franchise should help you sort your instincts among recognizable figures rather than test publication trivia. Expect long-running identities, crowded rescues, moral disagreements, and teams that keep functioning because someone agrees to do the unglamorous job.

  Which The Thing Character Are You?

  This quiz measures how you act when The Thing’s Marvel New York turns into a rescue problem: who you protect, when you move, and how much planning you need before the pavement gives way. Your result matches you with a character whose habits fit your choices, including the part of that habit that may cost you.
