History

One day, Apocalypse came with his "son", offering him and his Fantastic Four a chance to become his Horsemen, but they all refused. As a result, Holocaust showed up and killed the Fantastic Four, except the Thing, whom Holocaust instead ripped off his right arm.

Traumatized, aged considerably, and now fitted with a prosthetic arm, Thing joined the Defenders, and fought Apocalypse's minions, having the minions clobbered and killed, until Holocaust reappeared and, this time, using his plasma cannon, melted Thing into a pile mud and rocks, killing the Thing as a result.
