At least there was that, he mused. His super abilities were still intact and as potent as ever. He'd been afraid, when he'd awoken two days before - just a day after the incident with Veda Doodsen and her youth-transference machine - and found himself gone completely gray overnight, that his powers might have also been affected.
Considering what happened to him in 'Brutal Youth' this makes sense!
Funny story!
