Is there any possible explanation as to why young Magneto's power level is so much higher than old Magneto?
Because one's mental capacity declines in old age whether you have the dementia gene or not.
>>83428014
He's young. The mental and physical strain are easier to deal with then when he's old. That and the timeline got fucked up
It's a different timeline
>>83428014
He got weaker in old age, sort of like how men get weaker when they get older.
>>83428014
Yes, lots. We're talking about someone who has direct control over one of the four fundamental forces of the universe through no appreciable means.
>>83428054
Not drastically. A lot of what's observable is likely compounded by other factors like alcohol use, lack of routine in retirement, and so on.
There's no real reason why we should lose mental capacity drastically without dementia or other factors.
>>83428105
That kind of implies a physical aspect for his powers which makes even less sense than the powers themselves.
>>83428065
Again, that's not really an excuse in itself. Does he have a sedentary lifestyle? Is he a smoker? These are causes. A reasonably fit person with no particular vices isn't going to just weaken that drastically with age.
>>83428082
This implies that there's something unseen in the new timeline that increases his power level.
He had his powers reset in Last Stand. He probably hadn't gained them all back.
I mean in Last Stand he lifted the Golden Gate Bridge. That thing isn't light.
Has there ever been an example in the comics where mutant powers decline with age?
>>83428014
Special effects got better

There's a female character in Image comics' Invincible that transforms into a monster to fight. It starts out with her being pretty young and the monster hard as nails but as she gets older it becomes weaker and more human-like.
So her, I guess?
The monster is canonically a male too.
>>83428014
Yes.
First. He is younger. Duh.
Second, the new timeline doesnt end in the DoFP epilogue. This Magneto had his powers unlocked by Apocalypse. He is not the one who will become the Magneto you seen in DoFP
>>83428605
That's not how she worked.
The more she changed into the monster the younger she became after each transformation.

People get old and lose a step. Who are you to decide that he shouldn't have weakened that much?
>>83428516
Wolverine. His healing factor gets weaker as he gets centuries older.

time isn't linear you dumbass

Posting without watching the movie. Shameful.
Old age.

Did you read that off wiki or something? You clearly didn't read the actual comic if you believe this.
>>83428516
Thor is basically a mutant Asgardian, he actually become significantly more powerful with age.

dude't trying to take monster girl, who's powers were the result of a curse by some crazy witch, and hold her up as an example in a discussion about mutants. He's clearly never read the comic.
>>83428605
you kind of have it backwards friend. See she was normal, and when she was in her twenties she goes on this trip to europe and shags some dude who's granny was a witch. Granny told her to leave the boy alone and she declined, so granny cursed her to turn into a monster. Every time she uses her powers it de-ages her, and as she get's slowly younger the monster gets more powerful (in one of the later issues we see an alternate universe where she's de-aged to infancy, monster form was a fucking Kaiju.)

He's the son of Elder God Gaea. It's more that than cosmic biology.

Like, i don't know, Apocalypse?
But apocalypse didn't do anything to him. He just took him to Auschwitz and gave him a pep talk.
>>83428014
Because his powers give him migraines and clearly this is degenerative over time.
AIDS
Refrigerator magnets wear out too sometimes.

Is there any possible explanation as to why young Magneto's don't have white hair like than old Magneto?
>tfw all our superpowers will wear out with age and there's nothing we can do about it.
