hmmm maybe a lingering effect of the miracle machine when he was in it. (which is funny in retrospect that he didnt think to do that (make himself human) while he was in it LOL)

Huh. Well, I don't agree with this at all. Some people change tremendously over time, even if the nature of those changes aren't readily noticeable to casual observers.
Maybe there's a built-in disadvantage to portraying that kind of change in superhero comics, though-- where life isn't known for its overall subtlety.
At any rate, Wildfire is one of those characters who I neither really like nor dislike.* I would like to see him evolve but not in the customary turn-'em-into-an-insane-hateful-psycho-or-cringing-doormat way that too often passes as "change" in superhero comics. If that's the only option then, yeah. Leave him as-is.
*Wait. I lied. When he called Dr. Gym'll a pest to his face, I kind of almost loved Wildfire.

I think that in the "Charred Earth" imaginary future,(I think that's what those annuals were called) having WILDFIRE be the die-hard, flag waving, inspirational leader made sense in terms of the evolution of the character.
