>season 5 reveals that jack cannot age
>in season 4, the gaurdian shows us jack's future
>jack looks like an aged alpha
Genndy has confirmed that they haven't forgotten about The Gaurdian, and that whole plot will probably play a crucial role in season 5. So, what gives? Does Jack end up magically aging again?

He looks closer to that now. Has the beard and everything
>>91503647
>obsessing over the aging thing when it's clear that it was retconned to where he doesn't age
>>91503647
They probably dropped it or it'll be one of those "possible futures" kind of things. This design and scene specifically was carried on in the comics, though.
>>91503647
his hair and beard are growing out and he already has really similar wrinkles. I think he could still end up like this pretty easily
Are the comics canon?
>>91503647
those are stress wrinkles

Liiiinnnkkk??????

I believe they're not, but only because of the final issue.
There's not actual end to the comic other than the implication that Jack knows how to track down Aku now so he can't escape, as he leads an army to attack.
The problem main problem with the issue is that, Jack is older, which he shouldn't be since apparently Jack's aging process has been stunt the entire time if the series since he was sent to the past.
Really everything before the final issue of the comic COULD be canon no problem, but if they want to work the king Jack thing into season 5 they'll have to uncanon the comics..

I think Jack is an antitype of Aku. He represents eternal masculinity. It's like Neo is an antithesis of Smith. Maybe at the end he marries Ashi and loses immortality, just like Tolkien character.

Maybe when he fufills his Destiny by defeating Aku, he ages

Epic

This could go either way. It's a retcon, or Jack at some point will age, or it was always just a possibility the Guardian envisioned for Jack.

It was the Q&A before the season 5 premiere. Someone asked about the Guardian, and Genndy said that it's going to be addressed.
