I just saw that this post was two years old. So it’s even more horribly geeky of me to have commented than it already was for me to dispute the original point of the post.

Actually, there’s no sign that he donated blood at all. It’s described as a ‘flame transfusion’ and the Torch is described as sending the flame as a conscious action, which is not the way someone donates blood… I don’t have to will my blood to go anywhere. The description is equally direct – tubes are placed over their arms and the Torch just shoots fire down them. I think this is intended to be a literal transfusion of flame from the Torch to Toro.

Are we supposed to believe that this blood is some sort of, heh, magical fire blood?
