Not to be confused with
Kristoff Vernard, who goes by the name "Inhuman Torch" as a member of the
House of M Universe's
Fantastic Four. He was created using a variant of cells harvested from
Professor Horton's experimental cells. Called Horton-Type Cells these cells imitate life but are composed of a synthetic plastic compound.
With
Jim Hammond's
Horton-Type cells breaking down in his body he and
Toro ventured to New Berlin to avenge
Toro 's mother's death at the hands of Herr Sigmund Fell, a Nazi, and his Nazi machine creations.
Fell's subjects believe that they won World War II and the Reich is stronger than ever. Inside New Berlin, Fell encourages dissent among his subjects and then recycles the unknowing androids for scraps.
Fell recruits fellow Horton Cell specialist,
The Mad Thinker, to perfect his
Inhuman Torch experiment.
His purpose as he states is as a weapon, used to burn.
Creation
The Inhuman Torch was created by
Mike Carey and
Patrick Berkenkotter in 2010 and first appeared in
