	The Avengers - Human Torch (I)
		The Human Torch is an android that was originally created by Phineas T. Horton as a hopeful project to bring Horton' name to fame, but upon exposure to oxygen, the android would burst into flame.
		Yes and no. The android body of the Human Torch and Vision are the same body, but from two different timelines contained within one timeline, as revealed in Avengers Forever, created by Immortus.
		No, while his appearance and abilities are human-level, his body is still that of an android, now unable to ignite into flames due to exposure from an atomic bomb that was initially used to reignite his powers, but the long-term effects caused his body to lose his flame powers permanently.

		In the 1940's and 50's, Professor Horton invented the original android Human Torch, but the government feared android and future androids would be too dangerous and had all of his equipment and chemicals stored in a warehouse.
		After the public saw the Human Torch (from the Fantastic Four), Horton became angry that someone was using his android& name and, with his stepdaughter (now 14), broke into the warehouse to get his equipment.
		Before she was transformed by Galactus Nova possessed superhuman powers virtually identical to that of the Human Torch.

		A memorial service is planned for the Torch next week.Older readers will remember the original Human Torch, the heroic android who fought alongside the Invaders against the Nazi menace during World War Two.
		Following the battle, Reed Richards announced to the press that the Torch had burnt himself out, falling victim to a fail-safe which the Thinker had programmed into him prior to reactivating the android.
		The Torch, long thought dead, reappeared yesterday in the Navajo desert, and fought his modern-day counterpart, in a battle stage-managed by the malicious Mad Thinker.

	NOVA NOTES : THE CORRECTED HUMAN TORCH ON DISPLAY
		The original Human Torch was not human, oddly enough---he was an android, a creation of Professor Horton, who had the propensity of flaming alive, without being consumed, when he was exposed to air.
		Indeed, when the Four decided to put on uniforms in their third issue, it was very similar to the Human Torch's old outfit---except it was mainly blue when the original's was mainly red, and had gloves and boots and a "four" symbol.
		The originator of the Human Torch, Carl Burgos, was a young kid when he created him; and it was a brillant idea.

	the Human Torch 1 - Marvel Super Heroes Classic Style
		Having been dubbed (inaccurately) The Human Torch, the poor android realized the harm he was causing and doused himself in a swimming pool to stop his flame.
		The Human Torch was created in Professor Phineas T. Horton's laboratory, Horton being one of the pioneers in the field of Artifical Intelligence and Robotics.
		Well, the Human Torch's energy sheath can be doused by more than five gallons of water applied to it, or wind attacks of Shift X (150) or greater intensity.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: The Human Torch
		The Human Torch was a party to what is perhaps the first significant crossover in comic books, a great battle between Fire and Water (in the person of The Sub-Mariner) that sprawled across Marvel Mystery Comics #s 8 and 9.
		The Torch's first issue (Human Torch #2, Fall, 1940 — the first issue starred an obscuro called Red Raven) introduced his kid sidekick, Toro, a circus performer who, for reasons only vaguely explained, suddenly acquired Torch-like powers of his own.
		The Torch was introduced in the first Marvel comic, Marvel Comics #1 (November, 1939), in a story written and drawn by cartoonist Carl Burgos.

		The Human Torch and Namor were the first headliners of the early Marvel Comics (known in those days as Timely Comics).

	Comic Book Resources Forums - so is the vision the human torch?
		Neither Vision nor Human Torch is from 'another timeline as it was written in Forever, you'll notice, they say that the Vision was split into two by the Forever Crystal.
		So, this other copy of the Human Torch is really running around with the Anti-Vision's consciousness, and the current Vision's now defunct body is from this otherdimension.
		As addressed in Avengers Forver, at the point in time when the Mad Thinker had control of the Torch android, Immortus came and distrupted the time flow so that there were two Torches.

		The original HUMAN TORCH (now known as James Hammond) was an android created by Phineas Horton in 1939, but marred by a bizarre flaw that caused his body to burst into flame on contact with air.
		More recently, the Avengers learned that Vision was indeed a reconstructed Human Torch, and that Immortus had made this possible by creating an identical temporal duplicate of the Torch that was rebuilt into Vision by Ultron while the remaining Torch was buried by the Mad Thinker for the Avengers to find years later.
		After a human discovered one of the totems and was transformed into an Exemplar, a spell would compel other humans to seek out the seven remaining totems and use them to become Exemplars.

		Frankie is the step-daughter of Dr. Phineas Horton, creator of the original Human Torch android.
		Horton gave Frankie a post-hypnotic suggestion to blot out that memory and it was not until years later, while dating Johnny Storm, the new Human Torch, that her memory block faltered.
		The chemicals, however, were absorbed into her skin and gave her the ability to control fire, much like the original Human Torch her father built.

		Now, don't get confused...I'm talking the ORIGINAL Human Torch...the android who took the name Jim Hammond who first appeared in 1939 in Marvel Comics #1.
		His creativity isn't limited to just the Human Torch either...While most of his characters have faded into Golden Age obscurity, it's still easy to look at them and see their originality.
		See, the Human Torch that everyone thinks of, Johnny Storm, young upstart of the Fantastic Four, wasn't the first one...Stan Lee created Johnny Storm...but Carl Burgos created the Human Torch.

		Burgos had spent the late 1930s writing and drawing features like Iron Skull for the Centaur group, then he moved to Timely Comics, where he created the flaming, flying android known as the Human Torch.
		Lee is referring to the original -- the Golden Age Human Torch character, which had been created by writer/artist Carl Burgos.
		SO not good that in 1966, Burgos launched a lawsuit to reclaim ownership of the Human Torch -- and when he lost the suit, he did not take it well.
