Mythbusters, the popular Discovery Channel show that proves and disproves various urban legends, will tackle superheroes this Wednesday night at 9 p.m. ET.
The description of the show reads:
You’re not seeing things. As uncomfortable as it is, it’s true. The Mythbusters are wearing their underpants on the outside. And why? Because this episode is the Superhero Hour — the Marvel comic maestros are put under the MythBusters microscope.
(Thanks, Tracy!)

It’s easier to test superheroes who aren’t making up powers as they go along.

Actually, there’s already been a few specials about the science of superheroes, but it’ll be interesting to see what Mythbusters try.

I want to see them test the toxic-waste/radiation-grant-super-powers myth.
