The Thing, the alias of Benjamin "Ben" Grimm, is a superhero and one of the founding members of the Fantastic Four, who starred in the 1967 cartoon of the same name. His voice was originated by Paul Frees.
Exposed to cosmic rays during a flight to space, he and his companions were given extraordinary powers and become part of a superhero team. In Ben's case, he was transformed into a golem-like creature with rocky skin and immense strength. Despite being ashamed by his appearance at first, he has come to accept his fate and sought to be a reliable member of the team.
