		The Absorbing Man was one of the many villains taken by the Beyonder to his artificial planet, Battleworld, and was involved in the so-called "Secret Wars," pitted against a group of heroes.
		Unfortunately, Absorbing Man's non-criminal life was not to be, and he soon returned to his criminal ways, possibly because the police would always assume he was in the process of committing a crime even when he was doing something as innocent as buying his wife a present.
		Absorbing Man's life took a turn for the worse when his wife Titania contracted cancer, and he was powerless to help her at all because they'd be arrested if they went to a hospital; in addition, they had no money for medical care.

	Thing: Night Falls On Yancy Street #4 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		Now considering the Absorbing Man is a regular opponent of Thor and the Hulk, the Thing is a bit outclassed in this fight, and this issue's big brawl certainly does a pretty fair job of backing up this assessment, as Ben spends the better part of the battle getting his head handed to him.
		I mean the Absorbing Man is in fine form in this issue, as his power is put to good use and the art does a nice job of delivering his various states, with the highlight of the issue coming when he absorbs Ben's rocky hide.
		Now I will concede that the Absorbing Man's murder of the Trapster and the Wizard did add a greater sense of urgency to the battle, but this is somewhat tempered by the knowledge that whatever happens within these pages won't extend beyond this final issue.

	Bruce's dad as the Absorbing Man? - HulkMovie.com Message Boards
		For the Absorbing Man I would have been happy to have a plot like the Hulk running into an escaped murderous lunatic on the run out to exact some sort of revenge on people because he hates them.
		This ties in a bit better with the origin of the Absorbing Man, a criminal who is turned into a monster to exact the revenge of the villain who creates him.
		He did say that the character we know as the Absorbing Man will not be in film, and because of the previous rumors, I took that to mean that although he wouldn't be called that, he would have those powers to an extent.

	Michael Crawford's Review of the Week
		The Absorbing Man has no waist joint and the right arm has no wrist joint, presumably due to the chain links that have been sculpted on the arm; I am not sure why though because the links finish more or less where you would expect to see a cut joint anyway.
		The Absorbing Man comes with his ball and chain (no, not his wife) this looks great and is about the right size.
		The Absorbing man has a ratchet mechanism connected to his arm that you wind up and on its release (via the hideous and intrusive looking button on his back) he swings his arm around and whacks his enemy with his ball.cool!

		As the Absorbing Man continues his work as a superhuman enforcer for a druglord (in exchange for the drugs he needs to feed his habit), Spider-Man recovers from a wound inflicted by a New Anengers teammate during a sparring session.
		The opening scene, featuring the Absorbing Man, instills the proper level of menace in the character while bringing his fantastic powers to life effectively.
		There's Spidey's uneasy transition to becoming an Avenger, the introduction of a new, Superman-like hero in New York and the traditional super-hero-versus-villain conflict involving the Absorbing Man. One of the main problems is that Hudlin doesn't seem to know which plotline is his main focus.

	Incredible Hulk #59 Review - Silver Bullet Comics
		As Banner arrives at the secret compound where the Absorbing Man's body is being held, we see Creel is able to secure Banner's help in breaking into this facility, and bringing down the energy field that surrounds his body.
		The big solution to the Absorbing Man's defeat is also downright silly, especially in light of the fact that throughout this arc Bruce Jones has been trying to sell Creel as a seemingly intelligent villain.
		There's also some strange moments in the book, like the Absorbing Man acting like he was well aware of Banner being able to access the Hulk's strength, or the super secure energy field having such a glaring weak spot in its design.
