    So did Marvel?

    Just forgot that he's back? 
    Ever since him and Toro came back they haven't appear in any other titles;haven't reconcile with old friends; and haven't appeared in any crossover event. 
    WTF Marvel, they are very important characters.

    @katanalauncher: They aren't Wolverine or Spiderman so Marvel won't give them any attention

    You'd think the guy who supposedly bumped off Hitler would've been given more respect...

    @Dracade102: Only problem with that Marvel forgets these things, in one issue of the Avengers Bucky admitted to killing Hitler, in other comics it was Wolverine. So they don't know who really killed Hitler, I am going with Torch because I like him better. I was happy when they brought him back and was hoping we can have an Invaders reunion in Avengers and promoting Torch, Cap, and Namor with Iron Man and Thor. But I think the bigger problem is to many people don't know who THE Human Torch is, they would confuse him for Johnny Storm.

    @Nova`Prime`: I think if they brought him back now after Johnny died, It would be more appropriate. If they at the very least gave him a name change or something I'd deem that acceptable... I really liked that character, and according to a documentary I saw he was a pretty note-worthy piece of history, being one of the first super heroes to meet another hero (in his case, Namor) outside of his own series.
