Thing

Character » Thing appears in 5150 issues.

Ben Grimm, The Thing, is the original, quintessential "tough-guy" of the Marvel Universe but because of his transformation, he's also the unfortunate member of the Fantastic Four. Ben's exterior is hard as stone and his gruff disposition might fool some, but inside he has a heart of gold

Thoughts on Michael Chiklis as Thing in the FF movies?

I thought he was one of the few highlights of the films.

I liked him as Benji. One of of the movies best choices for a character.

One of the only things that were good about the movie. The other being Chris Evans.

he did a great job as the thing, if only the films were as good... that would have been something

It seems most people liked Chiklis as the Thing.  
It's kinda of ironic that he now plays another super-strong character in his new series "No Ordinary Family.
