About this listen
Is sex with The Hulk technically a threesome? Does The Flash do everything faster? Has Wonder Woman really never faked an orgasm?
Explore these questions and more with this collection of speculative, comedic essays on how superpowers might affect the sex lives of famous superheroes. Based on genuine scientific research and both Marvel and DC comic book and movie canon (and more!), Sex Lives of Superheroes is a refreshingly frank and fun deep dive into the pros, cons, and plot twists of superpowered sex.
Drawing from biology, physics, psychology, and more to play out (wild, fictional) scenarios about superheroes' sex lives, this in-depth analysis will definitively answer your burning questions, including:
- How does sex ed from the 1930s and 1940s stack up to today's (and what does that mean for Captain America's love life)?
- Can Spider-Man do whatever a spider can . . . in bed?
- Does Green Lantern prove that sex is better in space?
With interludes detailing some of the strangest sexcapades in superhero history, and the closest sexual equivalents we have in the real world, Sex Lives of Superheroes is a testament that sometimes life is even stranger than fiction.
This enhanced audio edition features a bonus chapter of excerpts from the author's award-winning podcast Talk From Superheroes.

A Fantastic (4) Read!
First off, this book could easily have been the raunchiest thing in my library if left in the hands of another author, but Dianna McCallum manages to thread the needle expertly. It’s nerdy, it’s funny, it’s punny and educational. I had a number of legit laugh out loud moments and I learnt quite a few things I didn’t know about before, and some of them weren’t even directly related to sex. Did you know that previous viral infections can suddenly reappear in space? I didn’t.
So while this book definitely has some similarities to a scene in Mallrats that is mentioned in the introduction, it isn’t lewd or overly graphic (except when describing Ninja Turtle junk which I’m sure will give me nightmares) and is definitely worth a listen if you’re even slightly nerdy, enjoy amazing/terrible puns, and want to learn something new.
Would (and have already) definitely recommend.
