I've been doing for years. I don't know where I first learned to microwave corn in the husk, but it's been a great method, and so much better than, well, whatever the other methods are that I don't use anymore!
Now I have a better way to shuck them, though I still only microwave a single cob for 3.5 minutes  |

22. Stupid question: Is the corn cooked and ready to eat or does it still need to be boiled? n/t

23. It will be cooked and ready to eat.

I've only been doing corn on the cob microwaved for just a few years, but in my opinion, it's the best ever! Our microwave is 1,000 watts, and here's what I do.
Wet 1 cob in the husk thoroughly. Cook on a plate on high for 5 minutes, turning once halfway. For 2 cobs, cook 7 minutes, turning once. I don't cut the bottom of the cob - the wet husks and corn are moist, so they peel down easy and make a handy handle. |
