He put the suit on, walked outside. It was raining, and his suit short-circuited, electrocuting him.I don't remember who that character was, whether he was someone notable, or at all related to anything else in the comic book. I just remember thinking at the time how funny it would be to have a series showing various people trying to gain super powers but failing.The super suit fails and electrocutes the wearer.Radiation sickens the victim.Chemicals burn the victim.Magic turns the victim to a frog.Aliens probe and leave the victim.Etc.Does anyone recognize that scene I described above? Was there more to it than that? Has there been a series (or just one issue) of anything that showed folks failing to get super powers?Bullgrit</blockquote>
