Yet there’s a small pantheon of comic characters that defy these well-trodden clichés, and boast powers that stretch the limits of the superhero genre.

What should real men smell like? I imagine something like wood or some kind of musky cigarette and whiskey smell, but bacon? Apparently somebody out there thinks that the smell of bacon is pretty sexy, because these soaps come in a variety of foody smells, good enough for any carnivorous woman.
