#50?

Johnny is still on fire for the cover of #2; he is drawn normally, but then with fire outlining him.

Johnny is indeed not on fire on the cover of 50. To my surprise, he is not on fire on the cover of 48 or 49 either! Perhaps to emphasize how powerless the FF is against Galactus and the Silver Surfer?

But there is one earlier cover with zero flames...

thanks everybody. i do love me my ff run.

FF #36

but issue 2 it's the fire from the Skrull gun. That should not count...in my geeky opinion

Without looking, name the first FF cover that shows Johnny Storm NOT ON FIRE.

and a bonus, cuz it's one of my very faves...

 

Lovely book. I admire your collection, not only lovely books but so diverse and from so many eras.

I was gonna guess #39 when the team fought doom without their powers but I'm wrong.

#29 is indeed the earliest non flame cover, I believe. "It Happened on Yancy Street"

The cover I had in mind when I made up the question was #97, the Creature from the Lost Lagoon, with the FF at the beach and the monster coming up out of the water behind them. But upon looking it up, Johnny's hand is on fire. I stumped myself!

I remember perfectly the scene, as it’s one of my favorite issues. I wouldn’t have voted it.

But I was almost sure #8 had Johnny not inflamed: the Puppet Master tricked me! ::

On a second thought, it could be #86 "The victims", as there’s Dr. Doom looming over them, and obviously they are not fighting, so: flame off?

And the other one is maybe #101? – the scene is once again a meditative one, and very poignant as it marks the end of the Silver age in some way.

#29 is indeed the earliest non flame cover, I believe. "It Happened on Yancy Street"

So the first is #29!

#86 and #101: I guessed right!

#2: Johnny is undoubtedly in flames. Not triggered by the Skrull zap gun, rather indirectly by his attack.
