T-Ball is a character with huge potential. Like others said, it would be great to see him go off on his own, join the Thunderbolts, or anything where he can truly utilize his genius.

I digs me some T-Ball! one of the few Supervillians with his own theme song
[YT]sT0x7QiJI1g[/YT] usually only the hero gets a theme song!:woot:
and yeah! cause he's a Brother!!... but a "Smart Brother!!"(I like those!) i always dug T-Ball is vying to take away leadership from the Wrecker of the Wrecking Crew! Dude is like "Starscream" to the Wrecker's "Megatron".. that's COOL!
besides if i ever was to become a supervillian i think my weapon of choice would be a big ASS WRECKING BALL!( is there a supermarket that sells those things?!) it works for the Absorbing man and it works for T-ball Splitting people's melon head open with! i would get one! Maybe team up with a hot blondie chick named "Chain" and I could "Ball" hehe
T-BALL is COOL!
...oh and Moonraker came before Octopussy!:cwink:

If you prefer Moonraker before Octopussy, that's your prerog. Its 2015 and we have a black President. I'm modern, I don't judge :o.

What are you taking about!! you judge so much your name should be "DREDD!"( the new one not that crappy sly stallone one! hehe)

... and i know what you are doing there! you cant pull the symboite over my eyes smart guy! i would take " Holly Goodhead" over "Octopussy" any day!

smart guy!
 
I like Thunderball. Wish he could take more of a leadership role with the crew but ultimately he's stuck having to take orders from an idiot because he gets his powers from said idiot. It's actually kinda interesting. Here's this smart guy, possible criminal mastermind, stuck having to play second fiddle to a super powered thug. He should quit and try to get his own powers from the Power Broker or something.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Spot on.
 
I like Thunderball. He's pretty awesome. I remember one fight from somewhere where he actually made fun of the fact he worked with idiots while being a genius. It went something like "I know you're all used to fighting these 'rocket scientists' but guess what? I am a ****ing rocket scientist!" *breaks everything*

I liked his "last" story in the 90's, where Loki drained his power so as to face Thor. He should have stayed dead and then, BOOM, Thunderball leads the Crew. Seriously... What is there to the character? He's slightly smarter than two other Crew members and way more vicious... And that's it. At least in that last story (Defalco and Frenz doing their best eratz Kirby/Lee ) they added some pathos to him before LOST style offing him to further the story. All and all... A perfect example of why the non-magical/god like Thor villains usually just don't work that well in a modern context. I could think of an awesome way to update Absorbing Man, but the rest? Yeah, most I never want to see again.
 
I like the story of his mom and the other Spider-Woman in Spectacular Spider-Man 125-126.
 
What happened it those issues?
I think it was the story Thunderball was trying to take leadership of the Wrecking Crew from his stupid friend.
Spider-Woman met Wrecker's sick mom, she had letters from him, and she did no approve of her son's activities.
Wrecker was crying somewhere on his own, thinking of his sick mother.
One of the times Spider-Man and Spider-Woman fought, they were close to Wrecker's mom, she talked him into stopping the fight.
 
Always felt he was kinda silly. Enchanted crow bar. I mean come on. The Dumb Donald face mask don't help either. But as much as I dig T-Ball, I've always kinda liked the dichotomy of their relationship. Like I said, he's an idiot basically, and T-Ball, who is a genius, has to take orders from him in order to maintain his powers. It's probably the most interesting thing going on with the whole Crew. I don't give a s**t about the other guys, but those two pretty much make the team for me.
 
The Wrecking Crew just plain sucks. Who ordered the Marvel Comics Village People?

I hate themed superhero/villain teams. "Lets all make sure we rob these banks dressed in a common theme..."

yeah totally this!
I dig the Wrecker.Hes one of the few dudes who can go toe to toe with Thor! the only thing i would say differently is i dont think the Wrecker is really an idiot,( well besides being a criminal!) dude knows he doesnt have the brains for certian jobs which is why he empowered somebody like T-ball who does to help him.He's also smart enough to keep somebody with brains like T-ball on a short leash by giving him just enough power and wanting more. i dont think dude an idiot like "Rhino" or "Orca!" cause thats pretty smart of him. Alsolike the lord Anubis said why i dig the dynamics between him and T-ball!
but yeah a God infusing a crowbar is some Dumb ass& &*( but it works just like a omnipotent being giving a dude a intergalactic surfboard! its just the right corniness that is cool! and yeah the other guys aint really ^&*!
oh and the best story was when him and Luke Cage tangled and he took that ^&*ing crowbar after dude was bragging about beating Thor and Hulk! i loved that &*!
 
He's got 'nuthin on T-Ball, but like Anubis said, their relationship is really the only interesting thing about the Wreaking Crew.

Wrecker is just another super strong/tough fairly dumb bad guy. If it wasn't for the group he made then he'd be just a forgettable villain. I did like how they handled him in the New Avengers when they first did the run. Luke Cage, Spider-Man and Wolverine all get their asses kicked and Spider-Woman using pheromones to calm and distract him so Wolverine and Luke Cage can kick his ass.
 
I dig him. One of the few X-Men I actually like.
 
I liked Sam way back when. But I really haven't kept up with all the goings on in the X-world that much. That said, Even with a huge age difference I kinda always though he should join the main X-Men team and hook up with a slightly older Armor. I mean... Cannonball and Armor? Kinda makes sense. He was a cool character that had a drawback (remember when mutants weren't ALL pornstar bodied and hade weaknesses and the like?) and he was a true student of Xavier. I also always thought he and and Cyclops should have had a deeper relationship. Given what's going on with Cyke these day, or at least what I've heard, it would be interesting to see them interact now.
 
With evil moronic Cyclops?

Hey... Maybe Sam can slap some sense into him? Plus, if it came to confrontation Sam's got the invulnerability and IMMORTALITY to give him a good shot at taking Scott in a one on one fight. :woot:

I'd love to see a fight like that ensue.
And Apocalypse gets a knuckle sandwich handed to him.
 
Poc needs to be at the height of his power at some point. At the verge of ultimate victory... And then Kang the Conquer shows up and is like, "Oh, yeah... I knew I forgot something in the time of gods and kings... Should have done this right before the FF showed up..." then snaps his fingers, Poc disintegrates and the heroes are looking dumbfounded as Kang just goes back to the future and we all are spared one more idiotic shaggy dog story about the least interesting X-Men villain of all time.

I'd love to see something like this happen.
But unfortunately, like with the case of the Reverse Flash post his death, he will return by the magic of a stupid retcon.
 
He's fine. Not a core member for me though, would get picked close to last.
