I found this today while searched for something else. Pretty cool comparison with the height info based on the source material.. but the depictions are based on the MCU representations that everyone recognizes.

I always thought the Thing was roughly in line with the Hulk. Of course, they've both been depicted many ways and many heights over the years. But I'm still surprised that Ben Grimm is only 6'.

He always struck me as shortish, but practically as wide as he was tall.

Surprised Drax isn't bigger, but I read comics in the 90s, I guess he's changed since then

He has rarely been drawn as 5' 3" in the comics though, more like 5' 7" or so.  Puck should be like 5 ' 3."  If storm is supposed to be 5' 11" or so, then Wolverine is 5' 7" here.

Then again, here he is closer to 5'3" if she is 5' 11":

The problem with this chart is that most of them wear boots and the soles can have different thicknesses, so the height in costume here could be a bit deceptive. Some could be cheating.  

Rorschach comes to mind.

A barefoot chart would be more accurate.

Honest question, but does Spiderman actually wear shoes?

Yup. That had occurred to me. One reason I said 'most'.

I noticed you said most and I was like who wouldn't or doesn't? lol then came my nerd question haha, I assume if spidey can still stick to walls through a costume---then why not through shoes, but when they've showed him ditch a costume or such he's never barefooted so one can only assume :)

I chose "other"...... as I would agee that Jackman does a great job but then gently remind them that the REAL Wolverine can use the "bucket method" of contraception, whereas Jackman, in most cases, cannot. GOD BLESS...

In the next  politically correct Marvel reboot Wolverine will probably be a midget...............

Possibly, but one would ever put the words politically correct and midget in the same sentence.
