―Human Torch

Johnny Storm, better known at the Human Torch, is a member of the Fantastic Four and the younger brother of Susan Storm.

Biography

Early life

Not very much is known about Johnny's past, except that he got trapped in the Baxter Building when it was sent to space by Doctor Doom.

Present

The Human Torch helped the Avengers fight off the Dark Elves in their ice forms when the Casket of Ancient Winters was opened.

Few weeks later after the Avengers saved Asgard from Loki, Johnny and the Thing visited the Avengers Mansion for a poker game, the Hulk attacked the Thing and Johnny joined the fight. At the game, Johnny was surprised that Captain America didn't know him he watched when the Thing got attacked by the Hulk. When Doombots started to attack, he took on several Doombots. After a while, the Doombots deactivated and the Hulk threw them in the ocean, they left the mansion and went to the Baxter Building where they metReed and Tony and told them that Susan and Wasp got kidnapped. Johnny was worried and they decided to invade the castle, but as they arrived they got overwhelmed by Doom. Doom stopped the fighting and freed both Susan and Wasp. The Fantastic Four and the Avengers left the castle. In the Avengers headquarters, they discussed the reason for Doom's attack.

Galactus

During the Galactus invasion, The Human Torch fought with Code White (team) against the Water element of Galactus' Heralds (Stardust)) eventually contributing to destroying her.

Appearance

Johnny has blond hair and blue eyes, he sometimes covers his face with sunglasses. He wears the standard Fantastic Four's blue outfit that can withstand extreme heat when Johnny goes in to fiery form. The outfit goes with back boots, gloves, and black belt with the Fantastic 4 symbol on his chest.

When Johnny activates his powers, he goes into a fiery form where he can emit and control the element of fire.

Personality

Johnny is a hothead who lives for the thrill and action in battle. He would prefer to fight, rather than watch it, or do anything else really. This tends to disturb or annoy others who aren't used to this attitude of his, such as Hawkeye. He can be serious, but that is only when someone close to him is in danger. That thrill of his automatically turns into pure focus. This was demonstrated when Susan was captured. He loves to pull many pranks on his teammates whenever he pleases.

Relationships

Susan Richards

They are siblings. Johnny acts kind of arrogant towards everyone even to Susan, but when she gets in trouble he wants to save her as soon as trouble showing brotherly love.

Reed Richards

Johnny keeps winding Reed up about how smart he is or could build such and such.

The Thing

Johnny and the Thing argue constantly but seem to be best friends. They are able to pull through for each other in battle but at home all they ever do is prank and be mean to each other many times in their free time when not saving the world.

Hawkeye

Captain America

He was easily annoyed with when he asked who he was.
