Though able to burst into living flames since that first fateful spaceflight that give birth to the Fantastic Four, today Johnny Storm is more fire-like than ever, capable of great warmth, and even greater fury. In this new title by popular FF-writer Karl Kesel and super-star artist in the making Skottie Young, readers learn if Johnny is REALLY on the edge of exploding into a raging inferno, or just having so much fun he wants everyone to think so?

Human Torch: Burn (1) (Fantastic Four)

Johnny Storm is the youngest member of the world-famous Fantastic Four, with the powers and temperament of fire itself. Impulsive, restless and thrill-seeking by nature, the Torch doesn't need to wait for the rest of the FF. He can get into trouble all by himself. Years ago, after gaining his powers, Johnny became the most popular student on his high-school campus. The Big Man on Campus until the Torch came along was Olympic-bound wrestler Mike Snow. The Snow/Storm rivalry reached a terrible climax when the two were fighting over a girl. Snow never wanted to see Johnny again - until now, years later, when a fellow firefighter dies before his eyes, inexplicably bursting into flames ... like a Human Torch. Collects Human Torch #1-6.
