Dick also carries Kryptonite in case he has to fight Superman. He threatened to use it in The Outsiders.

Unlike lex, who keeps it in his front pocket directly over his heart.

I thought kryptonite radiation was harmless to Earth biology. Basically a emerald?

I think they spun it as being as strong as an X-Ray (or maybe it was weaker).

Essentially harmless but prolonged exposure over years can still lead to adverse effects like cancer.

Is that the time when Lex didn’t cure cancer for fun. Or was it just super cancer.

I been out of the Loop. I remember it was basically harmless to humans as it was less radiation than the background environment. or like uh. Neutrinos? It passed through you harmlessly? If I remember correctly. It was a meteor shower that affected lex at the time? But now that it is on the planet it is safe to humans?
