Marvel Age #131

In the Beginning... traces the origins of the Human Torch, born from the mind of Phineas Horton, a visionary who forged a being of flame and fire. But fearing the world’s readiness, Horton chose to imprison his creation beneath the earth, sealing it away in concrete. Decades later, a crack in the structure begins to form—unearthing the long-buried spark of a hero long denied his chance to rise.
