Background
Edit
The character of Human Torch does not appear on this series. Rumors stated that he was rejected out of fear that children would light themselves on fire to imitate him. Really, he was licensed for an unmade live-action project. He is replaced by the robot H.E.R.B.I.E., who was eventually adapted into the comics.
