It was only a matter of time before someone harnessed the power of the lightning bolt and turned into a weapon (Nikola Tesla?).

Pirates soon to be Hit with Blinding Green Lasers

Taking a page from Greek history to thwart marauding pirates at sea, British defence giant BAE Systems is testing a new green-light laser, which can automatically harmonize its intensity depending on the weather and distance to target.

The Laser Tank Russia didn’t want you to know about

I knew they were up to no good.

Say hello to my little friend – the Avenger now has Serious Firepower
