This was the final appearance of The Fire-Man from Centaur's 2nd issue of MAN OF WAR from 1942. Although kind of a dorky looking hero himself, here he battles what may as well be, visually at least, Timely's Human Torch! This was drawn by one Martin Filchock who, if the Web is to be believed, is as of this writing still alive and actively cartooning at age 98!

Wow! I love this blog!
Hey Steven-
Sadly, Mr. Filchock died in 2012 at the age of 100.
