History
The android Jim Hammond originated in World War II and fought alongside the contemporary super-soldier Captain America. He had the capability to engulf himself in flames, earning him the moniker of the Human Torch.[1] When the extra-dimensional, time-travelling mad genius the Maker initiated a systematic campaign of elimination, prevention, assassination, and apprehension targeting superhumans perceived as threats to his grand designs of reshaping Earth to align with his vision, the Human Torch, like many others, would be affected. His body would be encased in order to prevent him from flaming, while the Maker would gain possession of his brain, subsequently depositing it within one of his numerous repositories as an artifact.[2] The Human Torch would later be freed from his confinement by Captain America at the time when he, Iron Lad, and Doom raided Damage Control and fought the H.A.N.D. agents.[1]
