I'm not convinced this would now be 'politically correct' - actually it would more likely be called Fake News!! - but it's a great piece!

Not sure why Marvel replaced the Ayers figures with Burgos other than he is strongly identified with the character. p> Incredible get!!!!!

You're probably right about the 'identified with the character' hypothesis, but I'm actually torn between which depiction I prefer.  Ayers' Torches are gritty, but Burgos' are more dynamic.  It's a tough call.

Love the early Toro and Human Torch art. I have a modern invaders piece with them in it, but this is awesome to see.
