Coffee Break #19: “X-Ray Dismay”
Because, if a horny teenager had X-Ray vision… you just know the little perv wouldn’t resist.
Come back tomorrow, for a BONUS Hero Business PLUS a special announcement!
Lastly, don’t forget to stop by the ComiCONN in Stamford, Connecticut this Saturday! I’m an Artist Alley guest, right across from the land speeder (or so I’m told).

Funny! 🙂
That was a dry delivery, some one get her some coffee.
Wouldn’t lead-lined underwear fall down from the extra weight?
I call comic book science! 🙂
It’s Reed Richards’ patent unstable-molecules-bonded-with-lead-lined underwear 🙂
You’d be surprised with the science that goes into creating fabrics nowadays. You can get satin fabric with metal fibres in it – it flows just as well as normal satin and isn’t noticeably heavier, but it’s designed to be crinkled and hold the creases. I wouldn’t be surprised if “Lead Lined Underwear” had a similar fabric in it made with lead.
Also – there are many types of underwear out there. it doesn’t specify what type she’s wearing.
she’s be better of with woven gold underwear will work just as well but without that pesky toxcicity
Wouldn’t he just see bones if he used his X-ray vision? =)
wouldn’t you just see bone?
The conceit of super x-ray vision is the the user can control the levels of see-thru. For example, classic Superman stories would have him see into the coat pocket of a criminal… not their sternum.
Or, people might recall the classic 1978 Superman movie where Lois test his x-ray vision and asks him, “what color is my underwear?” — and after a flurry of dialogue, Superman says, “pink.”
The “controlled x-ray vision” is kind of an established “thing.”
Well, if he really wanted to be a perv He could do some super speed maneuvers that could please him.
Ah, old School Superboy. A pity the new DCnU Superboy probably won’t be as fun.
Interesting that she only has lead lined UNDERgarments. I’d still count that a win as far as X-Ray vision is concerned.
It’s SOMEthing anyway. 🙂
I always wondered if Superman just walked the streets with his X-Ray vision “on” just to scope out people.
I would never use… Wait… Nevermind.
“an eager inventor named Jones,
was reduced to loud sobbing and moans.
he’d made X-ray glasses,
for viewing clothed lasses,
but all he could see were their bones.”
believe it or not, that limerick was written by Isaac Asimov and his wife!
