Creepy, in way that most comics aren't and reality can be...
and as an aside, although we don't have anything quite like the Sterbenfeld device, [thankfully] some really serious bio-containment labs have something like a 'gamma bomb' [specifically a sub-critical fission impulse device designed to produce gamma rays] or megawatt X-ray generator intended to do pretty much exactly that job. Kill everything within a specific radius.
Oh..and that's one nasty superpower Mandible had...and one very brave woman.
