Statue. Appearing in 1961, the Fantastic Four was the first superhero team created by writer-editor Stan Lee and artist and coplotter Jack Kirby. It ushered in the "Marvel Age" of comics and was an immediate success. The third statuette in this series is Johnny Storm, better known as the Human Torch. Brother to Sue Storm and an original member of the Fantastic Four, the Human Torch is featured in his classic "Flame on!" pose. This ongoing character lineup presents these characters just as they originally appeared, but the statues feature a rougher surface texture, visible seam lines, and other slightly distressed aspects, such as paint-application techniques. Sculpted by Yoe! Studio. 5 1/4" tall, limited to 1,000 numbered pieces. Packaged in its own tin box, with a pin-back button and character booklet.
