  Had Pierre Curie not died in an accident, he would most likely have eventually died of the effects of radiation, as did his wife, their daughter Irène, and her husband Frédéric Joliot.

    No true, he would’ve become a superhero like the meme suggests.

      The quote also mentioned Frédéric Joliot.

    When your family is so brilliant they die from it.

  Goddamn misogynistic radiation! Fight patriarchal particle decay!

    Misogynistic Radiation would be an absolutely amazing band name

    When the misogynistic radiation ionizes oxygen, it smells exactly like Axe body spray. So strange.

  I would love to see a movie about her where she gets super powers instead of dying

    We’d just get Hulk again?

      Imagine the She-Hulk movie if it were good. Yeah, this is it.

  Counterpoint: She-Hulk.

    I don’t think she got exposed to gamma radiation, she got a blood transfusion from Banner. So no, gamma radiation is still sexist.

      she got a blood transfusion from Banner

      The existence of blood transfusions implies the existence of blood cisfusions.

      Banner is a gamma source iirc, especially when Hulk is out

  And then there was that guy who ingested radium like a supplement and his jaw decayed. He was bulletproof, however. And he had laser beam eyes. It’s sort of a mixed bag.

    Wow, that was a wild read. I kept going to see if the man responsible for Radithor would get his after finding out it made him rich.

    Tap for spoiler

    No legal justice but … > Bailey died of bladder cancer … his body was exhumed nearly 20 years later, it was … “ravaged by radiation”. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_J._A._Bailey#Death I guess it’s a good example of Hanlon’s razor, “Don’t attribute to malice what can be explained by stupidity”

    This does sound like a Marvel mutant? I think his name was “Furnace”? He had no jaw and his chest was flaming energy?

  She should have been born in a comic book instead of real life.

  Classic mistake.

  • HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Maybe she should have been named Bruce. It’s our strongest name!

  It was alpha radiation

  • lugal@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Would have made her an alpha male if she was a male. But she wasn’t and there is no such thing as an alpha female (neither does alpha male make much sense but I digress)

  Half the fun of Philomena Cunk is she’s like half right or at least you can see where she starts from.

  I’m not into comics but now i’m genuinely curious; is there a comic story where the radiation turned a woman super? Only one springs to my mind is fantastic 4s invisible woman, which, you know, there’s some subtext. I’m also not counting things like She-Hulk cause that lacks originality.

  Is there more turtles turned super by ooze or radiation than women?

  • DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social ⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    There just aren’t a lot of women supers with cultural staying power in the first place, and getting powers from radiation was a trope from a time there were less than average.

  I mean, she is highly venerated by the scientific community, such that her research is still kept around despite being highly radioactive. Also, she was a living human being, as opposed to, y’know, a comic book character.
