"It is a matter of grave importance that Fairy tales should be respected.... Whosoever alters them to suit his own opinions, whatever they are, is guilty, to our thinking, of an act of presumption, and appropriates to himself what does not belong to him." -- Charles Dickens
F4's Thing * Impenetrable Hide * High Physical Strength * Resistance to various amounts of harmful phenomenon
JC's Thing * Ability to absorb and assimilate creatures on a microscopic level * Near perfect mimicry/imitation * Can survive extreme body trauma
AF's Thing * Seemingly Invincible and cannot be destroyed * Extreme Intelligence & Cunning * unmatched Dexterity
Judging from what I've seen of the Adam's Family, compared to his opponents, he never dies or gets defeated in any way, I think Thing will be the victor.
AF and F4 win the battle. But then it turns out they were both already assimilated and the fight was staged to draw more people, and therefore biomass, to the area.
I'm just thinking about how great the "this man...this monster!" angle would be if mid-soliloquy he sprouted tentacles and a giant mouth in his stomach.

there's also a "Thing" in the Gormenghast books but I'm guessing there are no pictures thereof

A pile of grotesque, squamous Things lie dead
Atop the charnel stack
A hand
Flips the bird to them all
But in an all-out fight, no allying, AF Thing wins.
