History
In the distant future of Earth-12665, Thing is the only member of the original Fantastic Four who is still alive. This is because he can only age during his 1 week as human each year, and thus ages very slowly. Along with Franklin Richards, whose powers also granted him immortality, he continued the legacy of the Fantastic Four and the Future Foundation throughout centuries.
Thing finally died of old age in 6012 A.D.[1]
