Spider-Man and Johnny Storm
Spider-Man and Johnny Storm are chaotically clueless all on their own, and it just intensifies whenever they fight crime together (or pester each other in general). Obviously, not every film or comic team-up needs to be series, at least not all of the time.
Arachnid-inspired abilities and the Human Torch’s firepower might not seem like a superhero mashup made in heaven. Despite Peter and Johnny’s sporadic bickering and spats, they’re longtime friends. For us, friendship might not be the best weapon is every scenario, but for heroes, friendship helps them anticipate each other’s moves and weaknesses in conflict.
After watching and reading insurmountable team-ups throughout our comic history, we’re certain Spider-Man and the Human Torch can deliver an aptly coordinated team-up.
Given their connection to one another, it wouldn’t be a one-off team-up either. Obviously, seeing the First Family in the MCU is a welcomed bonus.
