2.Torch rats out some mobsters,by leaving a flame-written message in the streets to tip off the police:

3.lol,Torch makes a stringer of fiery confetti to trap some criminals:

4.torch makes a giant test-tube and puts a criminal scientist into it.irony and attitude at it's best!:

5.Torch tricks a few mobsters into going where he wants them to by making a fence with the words "detour" atop them:

6.Torch first wraps a rope of fire around a criminal from his head to his toes without harming him.then he makes a pair of fiery masks for 2 criminals that won't hurt them as long as they don't move:

here's torch in New Invaders #5:

1.Torch talks about his strange connection with spitfire every since he gave her the first blood transfusion:

2.Torch scorches multiple vampire enemies:

3.Torch scorches a singular vampire:

4.Torch catches a stride,and everybody dies.notice he didn't hurt any of his teammates though(power control):

last batch before his death in New Invaders #9, then there's Avengers/Invaders

1.Torch agrees to lead the invaders.Namor supports his decision:

2.Torch has a talk with the somewhat naive android Tara about posing in the nude for the other team members.😆:

3.Torch scorches U-man:

4.Torch and Cap.fighting side by side for the last time before both of their deaths:

5.Torch shows a healing factor here.he's been shot and recovers at the same scene, same issue shortly after with no signs of injury:

Jim Hammond Dies

Torch dies in New Invaders #9. The thing is,he dies of a heat overload,which is completely stupid,seeing as he's completely and utterly immune to heat.I expected as much from a series that had wolverine beat the snot out of namor.

anyway,torch dies to save the andriod Tara,who he looked at as a daughter.she was a weapon of the enemy,and she was set to overload and take everyone with her.torch took her energy and overloaded himself.it was an admirable death.too bad it was unneccessary.nothing but a attempt to bring significance to a series that only lasted 9 issues by destroying marvel's most important historical figure.anyway,what's done is done.

Torch's Funeral/Memorial

JIM HAMMOND OWNS VENOM!

Looking at all the feats of badassery that jim hammond commits,it makes me sad that so many know little of him.i mean,the guy already frequently mouths off to and challenges namor,who's probably the most badass hotheaded "hero" in the history of marvel comics.then there's the fact that he incinerated hitler!.that's probably the most badass feat of badassery there's ever been.but no that's not all,i've recently found another feat for you guys(whoever you are) to enjoy.just like the sub-mariner,Jim Hammond gets into a fight with and owns none other then venom.

first he has a nice little talk with him(basically expressing his disgust for his appearance).then he explains to him that he's never met his kind and how he won't be stopped by a nazi(he thinks he's a nazi).then there comes the flames😆

also,here's jim hammond on the cover of Avengers/Invaders #1

here bucky says that he thinks jim is the most powerful member of the team(i'd say namor is though)

namorsubby Senior Member

darn. i was sure he'd get some posts for scorching venom.🙁

namorsubby Senior Member

more from Avengers/Invaders,

1.Torch fights his WCA teammate wonderman.it's short,and torch does pretty well.first he appears to be physically struggling agaist him(strength feat), then he gives him a good right.wonderman suckers him though when he's distracted because toro's in trouble. what a douche 😒 😆

2.Torch is encased in a cell of raining water(although still mustering up his flame).he uses a technique to try and disable a guy that enters in,he does,but not in the way he wanted.the guy was a robot.

3.Torch identifies with the robot that he disabled.he is somewhat like him:

4.Torch engages ironman.i believe that is a fiery hand he catches him with.maybe we'll see the outcome of this fight next issue.maybe it was just a short skirmmish though, and in that case,that makes it a stalemate

Jim Hammond defeats Ironman!

Jim Hammond as he appears in Avengers #131 as a member of "the legion of the unliving":

1.Jim Hammond defeats ironman He melts them and they think he's dead(idk how it was proven otherwise).

let the record show: OHT= 1, IM= 0

note also that jim's atomic flame is hot enough to melt his armor.

namorsubby Senior Member

JIM HAMMOND DID KILL HIM! he was brought back to life by immortus and rama-tut in Giant-sized Avengers v1. #3. that's quite a feat.

namorsubby Senior Member

torch is a threat

oh, and here in the scan of Avengers #131. the guy who brought the human torch back(kang, i believe) states that torch can threaten vision's physical being, make what you want of that

just wanted to add these two pages i deemed insignificant at first. but one shows hammond doing something pretty cool,so i thought i'd add them.thanks to supertorch400 from herchat.com for supplying the two scans. i sure as hell didn't wanna spend time uploading them.lol:

Great Respect thread, man.

namorsubby Senior Member

thanks. +1 to the number of posts that aren't mine 😄

-K-M- ...........

Good stuff, did you post any Heroes for Hire stuff with him?

+2, but don't worry about low posts because I have made many respect threads and I don't get many replies.

namorsubby Senior Member

i could post some heroes for hire stuff. i have em. never bothered to post it though. maybe i'll skim through it again and see if there's something worth posting about him there.

i've seen some of your threads.if they don't always get many posts then i definitely shouldn't be whining.lol, but really, i love that hawkman/hawkgirl thread.

namorsubby Senior Member

found some cool stufff in Heroes for Hire, thanks -K-M-:

1.Torch shows the other members of the HFH that he still gots it.....kind of. he seems to amaze herc who exclaims "by zeus". Jim is still the tactical leader of this team first though, proving he's more than a flaming fireball:

2.another feat of endurance.Jim walks out of an explosion completely unharmed:

3.This one is impressive. Jim puts Thena, THE ETERNAL, down with a hook.although she didn't expect it and torch was under mind-control, he still gave her a run.there's also another endurance feat here.Thena use her telekenetic powers to slam hammond hard against a wall, but he is unphazed, even though i'd assume she was really trying to rough him up. seeing as she said she'd destroy him and all

here are thena's powers(besides immortality):
Superhuman speed, strength, durability, and healing
Energy blasts
Flight
Illusion generation
Matter transmutation
Mind control
Telekinesis
Telepathy
Teleportation

Jim Hammond Goes Beserk!

From the page of Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty #2.

Steve Rogers narrates, telling of a time when jim hammond went apparently insane. he had been altered through brainwashing by the nazis. his flame was so hot that he was able to dwell in the bottom of the ocean without it being quenched. he was so hot he was causing elemental changes in the water.

namor and torch have a few words.......again, cap tells of the hardship of keeping them allied.
