Line 33:
* In the second issue of ''[[Global Frequency]]'', one of the characters carries non-lethal weaponry, such as EMP grenades, when they are going against a full-body enhancile. {{spoiler|They are... not exactly non-leathal.}}
* In [[The Dark Knight Returns]] the Soviets launch a single nuclear missile at the contested island of Corto Maltese. Superman knocks it off course, but, as Batman points out, this is not a [[Nuke'Em]] weapon - the 'Coldbringer' is designed to knock out the enemies' ability to fight, without damaging infrastructure. The weapon detonates, Superman gets [[Normally I Would Be Dead Now|almost dead]], and the electrics fizzle out in most of the Americas.
* In ''[[All Fall Down]]'', the [[Colony Drop]]-sized asteroid Penumbra seems to be radiating this, making any missile attack impossible.
* ''[[Iron Man]]'' has one built into his armor. It disables his own gear as well, which then takes about six minutes to fix itself. The exact same thing is in the ''[[War Machine (Comic Book)|War Machine]]'' armor.
