History[]
Johnny Storm was the baby brother of the older Susan Storm and one of the co-pilots that Reed Richards took with him on the test flight of his spacecraft prototype. Bombarded with cosmic radiation while in space, Johnny gained the power of fire upon the craft's crash-landing, while Reed gained the power of elasticity, Sue gained the power of invisibility, and the third co-pilot Ben Grimm became the stone-like Thing. Deciding to become a superhero, Johnny joined the other three as the Fantastic Four. His codename, the Human Torch, was taken from a 1940's superhero with the same name and powers.
