Popular Mechanics interviews author of Physics of Superheroes

Popular Mechanics published an interview with Prof. James Kakalios of the Minnesota University about his book, The Physics of Superheroes, about why he thinks comics are good teaching tools in science.

Interestingly enough, at the end of the article, he tells that his favorite superhero is the Atom, Ray Palmer. It makes me wonder, what does he think of the tarnishing and damage DC Comics did to the World's Smallest Superhero in the past several years?

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
