** If it was illusion, then I would agree, but it's different. He's actually remolding his body. And, you wouldn't die from age - related causes as, surely, a young boy is extremely unlikely to get, I don't know, *insert ages - related disease*.--[[User:IotV|IotV]] 11:29, 24 February 2009 (EST) |

* We don't know if he is actually more frail when he appears as an old man, or if he retains his youthful strength at all ages. (I'm assuming his ''actual'' age is closer to the "father" one than the "grandfather" one, but of course we don't really know that for sure.) But if he gets something age-related, such as alzheimer's disease, I wonder if he would retain that disease after shifting to another age. My guess would be yes, since he kept the scar. --[[User:Psiphiorg|Psiphiorg]] 19:47, 24 February 2009 (EST) |

One word
- Shouldn't it be jsut one word, Ageshifting, like Shapeshifting.--NiveKJ13 (talk2me) 18:15, 24 February 2009 (EST)
- I'd say not, because it's two words in the comic book itself. --Psiphiorg 19:43, 24 February 2009 (EST)
