If you're excited to enjoy Wednesday's Fantastic Four #600, turn back now. There are spoilers below the image, and super-mega-huge ones at that.
Seriously, you've been warned.
In the pages of Marvel's Fantastic Four #600, Johnny Storm -- the Human Torch -- gets reignited. That's right, after only ten months of death (and probably despair), Human Torch is back in action. Though the entire story of his return isn't told in #600 alone, the issue does serve as the starting point for the forthcoming explanation.
The Associated Press got the scoop in a discussion with Marvel Senior Editor Tom Brevoort. The editor alleviated any concern for fans that think writer Jonathan Hickman might be using a cheap back door (trapped in an alternate dimension, body switch, etc.) to bring Johnny back to life, saying, "Yes, he did die. He died a couple of times." Brevoort told AP that readers wouldn't "feel cheated."
"'FF' will also continue, and Jon will be writing both of them. They will both function as sister titles," Brevoort continued. "One focusing on the core four and the other focusing on the Future Foundation and the broader base of characters that we have assembled."
Human Torch died back in January, and in the wake of his death Marvel ended the Fantastic Four series, relaunching it as FF, adding Spider-Man and a wealth of other characters to the mix. It looks like Johnny's story will be continuing throughout the pages of both FF and Fantastic Four for the time being
