What's the deal with Kryptonite? |
|
Does it actually directly harm Superman, or does it just temporarily reduce his invulnerability, or what?

1. Supposedly it's radioactive in a way that specifically affects Kryptonian physiology. |
|
although in current continuity it affects humans over long periods of time, too...Lex Luthor lost a hand to Kryptonite poisoning-induced cancer after wearing a green K ring to keep Superman at bay (from what I remember from all the comics I read back in the late '80's, anyway--I haven't had too much interest in superhero comics for quite a while now).
