In a supers wold, there are fantasic technologies that large mega-corporations develop and are then only used by Superb Man. Take for example Marvel's Pym particles or Unstable Molecules. Pym particles would revolutionize the shipping industry. And unstable molecules would similarly change the world of Fashion. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Super genre writers explain this lack of exploitation by saying the supers in question contribute to the successful use of the seemingly natural resource. Only Reed Richards can create garments out of unstable molecules and only Hank Pym (and a few others) can change size with Pym particles. And that explains why the world has not become a completely foreign place. Just because Tony Stark can miniaturize and weaponize steel into a body hugging armored suit, doesn't mean just any one can do it.</blockquote>
