The Human Torch is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character is a founding member of the Fantastic Four. A similar, unrelated character of the same name and powers was created in 1939 by writer-artist Carl Burgos for Marvel Comics' predecessor company, Timely Comics. Like the rest of the Fantastic Four, Jonathan "Johnny" Storm gained his powers on a spacecraft bombarded by cosmic rays. He can engulf his entire body in flames, fly, absorb fire harmlessly into his own body, and 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 youngest of the group, he is brash and impetuous in comparison to his reticent and compassionate sister, Susan Storm, his sensible brother-in-law, Reed Richards, and the grumbling Ben Grimm. In the early 1960s, he starred in a series of solo adventures, published in ''Strange Tales.'' Human Torch is also a friend and frequent ally of the superhero Spider-Man, who is approximately the same age as the Torch. Jay Underwood played him in the unreleased 1994 film ''The Fantastic Four'', Chris Evans portrayed him in the 2005 film ''Fantastic Four'', and its 2007 sequel ''Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer'' and Michael B. Jordan portrayed him in the 2015 film ''Fantastic Four''. ==Publication history== Created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby, the Human Torch first appeared in ''The Fantastic Four'' #1 (Nov. 1961). For some time, the Human Torch appeared as a regular character in a backup feature in the title ''Strange Tales''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Human Torch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
