They never specify "thin", but it was Mint cookies from a girl scout. He screams out an angry "Noooo!" when she doesn't have any, and then tells her "It wouldn't be the same" when she offers him S'more cookies.
Your question Mr. Zorn.
HeroClix needs more Goblin.
Acceptable in such forms as Green, Grey, Demo, Hob, Ultimate, and "Menace."
Let's get in the Way Back Machine and visit the Avengers-Defenders War from the Seventies:
The Avengers were vastly out-powered by the Defenders in the story, even if it wasn't necessarily written that way. The Defenders had the likes of the Hulk, Silver Surfer, Dr. Strange, Namor, and Valkyrie on their side, while five of the nine heroes who fought on the Avengers' side had essentially no super powers to speak of.
Actually there were only eight heroes fighting on the Avengers side at that time: Captain America, Thor, Iron Man, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Black Panther, Swordsman, and Mantis. You may be thinking of Hawkeye but he was on the Defenders' side.
Only three had no super-powers at that time: Black Panther, Swordsman, and Mantis. Well, technically you could count Iron Man, as all his powers came from his armor, but that let him go toe-to-toe with the likes of Hulk and Sub-Mariner. The A-D War took place during the brief time when Captain America had super-strength (acknowledged during his battle with Sub-Mariner).

Name those five not-exactly-super heroes.

And this is why others stopped asking Avengers Vs Defenders questions. CuCr knows all the answers. Don't know why, but he does. One can even surmise his knowledge of those events surpassess his knowledge of all-things Iron Man. It's like Ro_Gan with the X-Men. We tended not to ask X-Question when Ro_Gan was around. It's a sad commentary on us all, I know. Nothing wrong with having the knowledge, but, well, there it is.

The story had quite an effect on me when I first read it, as a lad of six summers. Even though, back then, I wasn't able to get all the parts of the story; that came a few years later when I discovered the back issue market.
Of course I now own one of the collected editions of that classic story (which pretty much invented the multi-title crossover) and share it with my son.
Wow, a comprehensive job-well-done to you, sir! You are correct in realizing I forgot Hawkeye was a Defender then, and that was during Cap's Super Strength phase!
I, too, was a huge fan of the story when it came out...I was 8, I guess. I loved how the final issue had the non-Avengers and Defenders back in New York dealing with the splashover from the core problem, reinforcing that, yeah, these guys all lived in one place and had to come fight the big menaces...

You mean "sixty" summers ago.

During World War Hulk, Black Bolt and Hulk had an encounter. What word was said by black bolt to knock hulk miles away? (i dunno if it was miles but it was awesome)

The first time Luke Cage and Spider-Man met, they fought (unbelievable, I know, that two heroes would come to blows in their initial encounter). Where did the fight take place?
