** Fellow X-character Nathan Christopher Summers is sent into the future as a baby and later comes back (roughly the same age as his grandfather) as [[Cable]]. Of course, he came back before he left, so at one point, both Adult Cable and Baby Cable were around at the same time. |

** For a while even [[Fantastic Four|Reed and Sue Richards']] son Franklin fell victim to this trope, being kidnapped into the future and coming back as the teenage ''Psi-Lord''. Silly, yes, but it did give young Franklin's tremendous mental powers a break from [[Deus Ex Machina]] and/or [[Puberty Superpower]] duty - his older self was in control of them. It was, of course, later reversed. |

** [[Incredible Hulk |
** [[Incredible Hulk|The Hulk's]] sons Skaar and Hiro-Kala are physically young teens, but chronologically only a couple of years old, partly thanks to their mother being one of the alien Shadow People, who have an accelerated maturation rate. Skaar actually has a "puny" (human) form that is at least still a child. |

*** When you consider Skaar's the first Hulk "person" to grow up from birth on-screen, his growth, muscle tone and mental development rate may be the norm. To give reference, in Son of Hulk #1 even as a newborn Skaar appeared to be nearly as large as one of Miek and the Brood's offspring and stronger than them. |
