The Blob (Frederick J. Dukes) is a Marvel Comics supervillain, an adversary of the X-Men, X-Factor, New Mutants, Spider-Man, Daredevil and several other super heroes. Blob is one of the most prominent long-running evil mutants to battle the various X hero groups. Blob's mutant powers relate to the mass, strength, resilience and indestructibility of his obese body. Blob possesses an extreme amount of pliable body mass which grants him superhuman strength (possesses sufficient strength to lift at least 70 tons) and he has his own gravitational pull (virtually immovable at will as long as he is in contact with the ground). Blob's body possesses superhuman durability which gives him a high degree of resistance to injury. The fat tissues that comprise the Blob's epidermis are able to absorb the impact of rifle bullets, cannonballs, bazooka and even torpedoes. The larger of these projectiles recoil from his body at one half the force of impact. The smaller ones embed themselves in his layers of fat tissue, enabling him to eject them by merely flexing his muscles. Blob's skin cannot be punctured or lacerated by most known materials, frostbitten or ravaged by any skin disease due in part to his skin's great elasticity and toughness and in part to the highly accelerated rate at which his skin cells grow and replace themselves. It is not yet known if there is an upper limit to Blob's ability to absorb impact. While he could easily survive a head-on collision with a bus traveling at a hundred miles per hour, even a highly ferrous meteorite fifty feet in diameter on top of him at terminal velocity, it is not known whether he could survive a collision with an object traveling at near light speed. Blob has been a member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Freedom Force, X-Corps, Factor Three, X-Cell and the Defenders. At Blob's biggest mutated size he stands 8'0" tall and weighs around 975 pounds making him truly the immovable object.
