Part of the actual technology advances were inspired in fiction.

Now, let’s get technologic. Believe it or not, part of the actual technology advances were inspired in fiction artifacts of the comics. Great ideas first appear in the paper and then in metal. When you think in lasers the first thing that comes to you is blasters, right? Well, let me tell you that, if it’s not what we spect, the laser technology already exists in many of the gadgets that we use and buy. Cellphones, medical procedures, weapons, etc; all of them use lasers in some way and that’s thanks to comics because those things appeared first in the panels. Don’t deny that logic.
