The Human Torch has the power to create the heat and light of a supernova. So how is it that Plantman is able to douse his flame with nothing but the dew of acorns? Is it something to do with the Plantman's nocturnal visit to the Human Torch's house, when he threw a bucket of water over him - or shall we put this tale down to one of Stan's off days? We have to rely on the Doctor Strange story to salvage this issue, as the Master of Mystic arts encounters "Witchcraft in the Wax Museum." Can the good Doctor use his powers to overcome the evil that lurks therein? Another tale of mystery wrought by Stan and Steve.
