Does The Human Torch's Skintone Matter?

Yes, I want him to be caucasian.

No, I'm fine with him being black.

Does it matter to you? The only argument I've heard that has any value is the fact that his sister is white. That said, mixed-race families can have children of different colours. Maybe one parent got divorced after having a child with their first spouse and had the second with their second spouse. Maybe one is adopted. He was cast for his acting abilities, not his skin colour. Also, Jessica Alba isn't exactly white yet no one freaked out about her being cast as Invisible Girl.

  • How often will his normal skin be shown anyway? His super power involves lighting himself on fire. But honestly it doesn't matter. I don't remember if ultimate torch is black or not but there are so many marvel multiverses that I'm sure it's canon somewhere. Only thing I wonder is how they will explain the brother sister thing, as you stated before.
