The Blob (Frederick J. Dukes) is a Marvel Comics supervillain, an adversary of the X-Men. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist/co-writer Jack Kirby, he first appeared in X-Men #3 (January 1964).

A mutant, the Blob claimed to be unmovable. He possessed an extreme amount of pliable body mass, which granted him superhuman strength, and his own gravitational pull. Possessing the mindset of a bully, he mostly used his powers for petty crime and as a member of the Brotherhood of Mutants and Freedom Force.

Powers and abilities
Though now depowered, the Blob's mutant physiology granted him a number of advantages. He had vast superhuman strength and his resistance to injury was among the greatest of all Marvel characters. Indeed, his greatest asset was his superhuman resilience; his highly elastic blubbery skin had proven to be difficult to penetrate by gunfire, missiles, and even Wolverine's claws; though with sufficient force the claws could lacerate his flesh. Anything short of adamantium could not damage his skin, or even cause him pain. On one occasion however, a concentrated optic blast fired by Cyclops was sufficient to puncture a hole through his shoulder, much to the shock of Dukes himself. He could also alter his personal gravity field to make him virtually immovable, although an incredible force (such as the Juggernaut or Colossus) could uproot him, along with a chunk of whatever he was standing on (the only beings on record to have been able to lift the Blob against his wishes are the Incredible Hulk and Strong Guy). Despite his morbidly obese appearance, his agility was the same as that of a fairly athletic male of normal stature, a fact which frequently caught his opponents by surprise.

The Blob had superhuman strength which had greatly increased over the years, in a manner very similar to that of the Thing; originally the Blob had enhanced strength enabling him to lift about 1 ton, but right up to losing his powers he had become strong enough to lift roughly 70 tons. This improvement was said to be a result of his ongoing mutation.

What few weaknesses the Blob did have mostly circumvented his physical resistance. He was able to be injured by attacks directed at his face, as his eyes, nose, mouth and ears did not have the same blubbery protection as the rest of his body. Dukes was susceptible to psionic attacks and psychic manipulation. The Blob could also be incapacitated by sensory assaults; for example, Banshee was able to render Blob unconscious solely through the use of his sonic scream. He could be incapacitated by drinking alcohol, although due to his immense body mass it would require a great deal.

Blob can control his own density and that around him, bonding to the ground he is on and becoming in a sense his own black hole. While in this state Blob's mass is increased and his tensile strength (of his skin) is also magnified. He proved this in an Avengers Annual where Vision tried to phase through him and Blob stopped him. Though Blob has been cut by Cyclops beam before in X-Factor.
