Description

Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Thing and Human Torch acting as the light source for this image…very cool! Like the rest of the Fantastic Four, the Human Torch gained his powers on a spacecraft bombarded by cosmic rays. He can engulf his entire body in flames, is able to fly, can absorb fire harmlessly into his own body, and can control any nearby fire by sheer force of will. “Flame on!”, which the Torch customarily shouts when activating his full-body flame effect, has become his catchphrase. The plasma field immediately surrounding his body is sufficiently hot enough to vaporize projectiles that approach him, including but not limited to bullets. He does not generally extend this flame-aura beyond a few inches from his skin, so as not to ignite nearby objects. Johnny Storm refers to his maximum flame output as his “nova flame,” which he can release omnidirectionally. Flame of any temperature lower than this cannot burn or harm the Torch. This “nova” effect can occur spontaneously when he absorbs an excessive amount of heat, although he can momentarily suppress the release when necessary, with considerable effort. Storm can also direct momentary beams of “nova heat” as a weapon.

Near mint condition.
