 Actually, that's an awesome argument. And totally true.

Most likely Ironman.

The money of both makes either of them worth it.
Bow before your unimaginably powerful overlord!

Wait a minute, I'm currently too busy holding a cork in mid air for petty groveling.

I saw it a while back, but I am still trying to decide.

Most likely:
Invisible Woman > Human Torch > Mr Fantastic > Thing

Human Torch comes a close second though.

Invisible Woman > Thing > Mr. Fantastic > Human Torch
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Batman.

Wins because he's the goddamn bat man.

Glaciation Vs Pyric Form.

Mr. Fantastic > Invisible Woman > Human Torch = The Thing.

Reed Richards is a genius. He made a gun that could kill nearly anything.

The Invisible Woman becomes very bad ass in some comics.

The Torch and Thing don't interest me much.

Pyric Form. Unless the pyric gets too close before using his power.

Well, I don't know much about the comics, but as far as dangerousness, I would say yeah, Mr. Fantastic > Invisible Woman > Human Torch > The Thing.

Mr. Fantastic is incredibly smart, which seems to manifest in almost a compulsive desire to analyze, deduce, theorize, experiment and innovate. He's one of the smartest in that universe, if not the smartest.

And after that, I would think Sue Storm is a deadly second. The ability to psychically generate and manipulate a mysterious invisible energy, that not only allows Telekinesis-type feats, but also Invisibility, which makes for stealth.

And of course, The Human Torch is powerful, capable of what, nova-level energy output? But I'm not sure if that's canon, or just a gimmick from the movies. Still, fire manipulation and a fiery form is very cool, despite being weak against water and airless environments.

Which leaves The Thing. He's strong, but undoubtedly below Hulk-level. He's tough, but obviously not invulnerable like Superman. He's got a rocky exterior, and so what if a geokinetic comes along? Meh, his power doesn't impress me; sad as it is, I like his personality better than his powers.

Invisible Woman.

Mr. Fantastic.

Um...maybe a draw. If I absolutely have to choose, I call Torch.

Mr. Fantastic.

Also a close call. I call Fantastic.

Torch.

(Oh, also, this was a 12-pack, not a 10-pack)

I would agree.

Unless they could turn air into ice.

Yeah, that's true. In fact, likelihood of a glaciator to beat a pyric is little to none unless the pyric has a shortcoming to power use, or the glaciator had some other power like Cryokinesis or Hydrokinesis.
