That was explored in The Pro when the female lead had relations with the Superman analogue, and he shoved her off before he shot his shot, which hit a plane.

The rationale I accept for Supermans shot not blowing out the top of Lois' head is that he consciously has to use his power, otherwise everytime he blinked his eyes it'd blow people away with the sheer force of it, his piss would shoot through walls... and lord have mercy on anyone in the mens room with him after he had Taco Bell.

Of course it's written by Garth Ennis. I should have known. Gotta check it out later.

I'll always upvote 'The Pro.'

My personal retrocon was that she decided to skip fleet week and head to the local college for some wimpy pencil necks. Her first client is Peter Parker, the second is Reed Richards, and the last is Bruce Banner. Three close contacts with gamma radiation infused bodily fluids gave her the super powers.
