Description
The Abomination, Emil Blonsky, was created by writer Stan Lee and artist Gil Kane. Stan Lee chose the name “the Abomination,” which he realized belonged to no other character, before conceiving the character’s background and appearance. Lee recalled that he simply told the artist Gil Kane to “make him bigger and stronger than the Hulk and we’ll have a lot of fun with him.” The Abomination is similar to the Hulk in terms of strength, stamina, speed, durability, and ability to regenerate. In contrast with the Hulk, he retains his intellect after transforming, and cannot change back into human form. He also possesses gills, enabling underwater breathing; and, he can enter a state of suspended animation when bereft of oxygen for long periods. Originally, the Abomination is twice as strong as the Hulk, but unlike the Hulk his strength does not increase/decrease in proportion to level of anger, with the result that the Hulk is able to gain an advantage over Blonsky if the fight takes a sufficient amount of time for his anger to increase.
