Definitely the Human Torch, in my opinion. They have had an interesting relationship throughout the years of Spidey comics and anybody who disagrees I command you to check out Dan Slott's Spider-Man/Human Torch miniseries and then tell me if he's not his best ally. :woot:

I love that mini, but the whole point of the series is to show that they generally don't work together naturally, and tend to screw things up when they team up.

Fun reading, and a good friendship, but I think a lot of people her are confusing 'friend,' with 'ally.'

Johnny isn't that great a fighter either, has no real intellectual skills, is impatient, is a show boat, and is known for making a furious amount of mistakes

I like him as a character, he's hilarious and fun, but he isn't a great ally to Spidey or anything.

He also works in a very different world from Peter. Peter and Matt are both street level guys, Matts a lawyer, (bloody handy,) both have similar fighting/transport abilities, both have a very high intellect, are patient, work at things, are passionate in their beliefs on what's right, share rogues, and are much more grounded in more of a local 'street,' world, have lost their first loves, have parental loss issues...

I could go on for a really long time describing how they can easily connect, and why they can work together easily, and help each other out, but I think I made my point.

Johnny's usually in another galaxy, or dating some floozy, he's just nowhere near Spidey's world

Not to say that it ain't great when they meet though:)
 
They weren't friendly until the mid 90s. When ever they met in the '60s to '80s there was friction, to the point where during the crime wars in the late '80s they got in a full fledged fight and DD tricked Spidey by pretending to be Kingpin so the real Kingpin could escape Spidey's "war on crime," b/c DD thought only Kingpin could bring an end to the war by killing all of the heads of rival families.

They're friendly now, sure...

I guess, yeah. Johnny and Peter butted heads a lot too, I actually really enjoyed those times
