Can Radiation Give You Superpowers?

Reactions is a show that uncovers the chemistry all around us. We answer the burning questions you’ve always wanted to ask, blending the worlds of science and every-day life.

Can Radiation Give You Superpowers?

Season 2 Episode 38 | 4m 35s

Reactions is looking at some superhero science and chemistry. The Thing, Human Torch, Invisible Woman and Mister Fantastic are back this summer! In the new reboot, the team gets its powers while in an alternate dimension. Here at Reactions, though, we stick to comic book canon. We explain the original way the Fantastic Four got their power – radiation – with help from SciPop.
