    • The Kingpin claimed it to be capable of atomising an entire person with one blast.[6]

Unsorted[]

  • Unnatural Size | Unnatural Body - Kingpin possesses a freakishly huge, somewhat obese body. However, his tall and wide stature grants him the peak of human strength. Regarding his strength feats: He's lifted 1245 pounds, crushed a man's head with one hand, and casually swatted open a door; It took Daredevil all of his strength to open aforementioned door, and still nearly disjointed his arms. He was capable of enduring a 1,500 pound slap to the face, and it only left him dazed temporarily. Even his own speed has surprised Deadpool on occasion.
  • Criminal Mastermind - Kingpin has an overwhelming influence over NYC, and despite not being remarkably intelligent, Kingpin is capable of formulating plans and strategies when it comes to using his henchman like chess pieces.

Notes[]

  • The Kingpin was created by Stan Lee and John Romita, Sr..[7]
