Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

A bit of a weird wish, but I'd definitely wish that whenever I want I could be looking at a living person (either through TV or a photo), see their age, and be able to adjust it at will. I would finally be able to turn the US legislators into the babies they are.
interesting superpower. i wonder if this has been done before?
I don't know if it has been explored in great depths in general media, but I know just about every single cartoon I've ever seen has done at least one episode involving age regression. I also know that season 3 episode 9 (Secret Agent Bear) of Yogi's Treasure Hunt they had Dick Dastardly was trying to hold world leaders ransom with fountain of youth water and that's the closest I can think of to this super power that I've seen in popular media.
And my first thought to that idea was "ah yes, preserve Danny DeVito for years to come."
Fair.
