Someone who goes nuclear does not hurt themself in the process. (Peter, Future Peter, Ted) And he can heal as well, so he'd heal if it did hurt.

And his clothes being in one piece follows the Incredible Hulk's Pants rule of comics

Yeah, but see, people with healing powers (Claire, Peter, Adam) get hurt all the time...broken bones, cuts, toes lopped off, autopsies, etc., then heal. So, he definitely gets HURT...he gets blown into molecules. There's nothing there to heal. His healing blood is spread all over the atmosphere. That's what I don't get.

[/ QUOTE ] What you don't get is that the explosion is only external. It isn't because of Peter's healing powers it doesn't hurt him. Going nuclear didn't hurt that guy who originally had the nuclear power either.
