This tale of Cory Corrison calls to mind the old line about the original version of how Daredevil gained his powers. “If Peter Parker was bitten by a radioactive spider and became Spider-Man, why didn’t Matt Murdock (hit by a radioactive truck) become Truck-Man?” Notice also the nearly universal alliterative initials that Stan Lee gave to the civilian identities of his earliest superfolk. But what are the letters on Cory’s shirt? What do they stand for?
This idea that “radioactivity” somehow confers super powers on a person is not only passé, but it’s scientifically false. We’ve known now for decades that the only thing that really works is steroids. (And that’s why you don’t see these young superheros trying out for the Olympics. They’d be unmasked.)

Ryan Seacrest has been trying to keep the fact that he’s radioactive secret and Ruben goes and outs him.

“V-O-M”?.And I thought it was “MOM”, just not showing the bottom part of the first “M”.
