Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invisible_Woman

As the Invisible Woman, Susan can render herself wholly or partially invisible at will by bending light around her.[50] She can also render other people or objects fully or partially invisible too, affecting up to 40,000 cubic feet (1,100 m³) of volume.

EDIT:

Invisible Girl

Initially, her powers are limited to making herself invisible. However, before long Sue discovers she can make other things invisible as well as create force fields of invisible energy.

Invisible by bending light.

You can't bend light where thr sun don't shine.

What a blunder I hope some one gets fired for this comic

[–] Acters@lemmy.world 10 points 5 months ago

So this means she intentionally let it be seen and possibly wanted something even more rock hard? 😉

So I guess it takes a conscious effort for her to make something other than herself invisible, and in the case of the plug, she just forgot.

That’s what I think every time I see this comic, she’s forgotten to make it invisible

Or maybe it's order, obviously the mental concept of superpowers is never really explained, but hypothetically clothes etc... that are being worn are generally automatically assumed, as if it was a concious effort of "remember my shirt, shoes, bra, earing, left sock, right sock". every time would lead one to expect mistakes on the regular.

Logically what would make more sense, would be maybe if she turns invisible, then picks something up or puts something on (or in). It would most likely not become invisible.
