: ...because if memory serves (and I am a little shaky in terms of Fantastic Four mythos) The Human Torch came about because of that whole "cosmic rays" shebang that caused the rest of the group's powers. And he wasn't a teenager when he went a-space-hoppin' with Richards.
He definitely wasn't a mutant in the Marvel sense of the word, but he was in fact a teen at the time of Reed's secret rocket launch. And as I find myself writing that out, I have to wonder what in the hell Stan Lee was smoking.
