Retrogirl/super shock ages


So in season 2 we learn super shock meets retro girl during WW2. So do they just age slowly? That would make them both about 80 years old? 18 in the war, say met 1940 (rounding), so they'd be 78 in year 2000. Assuming it takes place in current day (2016) that would make them at least 94.
Am I missing something ?

reply

Yes. I'm just wondering why they recast Janice.

reply

Also I guess I missed where super shock said he was over 300 years old. He ages well.

reply

I think Walker said in season 1 that powers age slower than normal people.

reply

Although not as slowly as some of them do in the comic book.
The comic book version of Walker is several million years old, approximately. He and Wolf had both been around since the dawn of Humanity. Walker's brain could only hold a normal human lifetime's memories though, with everything older only retained as hazy fragments. Wolf's memory was better.

reply

He may not be millions of years old in the show, but Walker's immorality has been hinted at.

reply

I know you meant 'immortality' but your typo gave me a grin on a crap day :-)

But I agree; he's developing a tradition of failing to die from fatal events.

Yes, it was supposed to be immortality. Somehow my phone decided to replace it with immorality.

reply

Maybe it saw the 3-way and took it from there :-D
