** ''[[X-Men: Evolution]]'' [[Alternate Continuity|reworks continuity]] to put most of the main characters ''in'' their teens.
** ''[[Generation X]]'' is about a group of powered teens at Xavier's spin-off school.
** Exceptions to the [[Puberty Superpower]] tend be extreme. The shapeshifter Morph, as explained in ''[[Exiles (Comic Book)|Exiles]]'', was born a fairly squishy mass of a baby. Nonetheless he counts himself lucky, since his power allowed him to quickly shift into a more normal appearance and live a fairly happy family life.
*** There is also Jamie Madrox aka. Multiple Man, whose mutation showed itself directly after birth when he created several copies of himself after getting the usual slap on the behind.
* Franklin Richards is a major [[Marvel Universe]] exception who, even more dramatically than Superbaby, shows the dangers of a child who possesses (literally) [[Reality Warper|world-shaping power]].
* ''[[Power Pack]]'' is an exception, where the Power siblings gain their powers from an alien, with Alex at 12, Julie at 10, Jack at 8, and Katie at 5 when the comic first started.
* While her father got it from a [[I Love Nuclear Power|radioactive spider-bite]], ''[[Spider-Girl (Comic Book)|Spider-Girl]]'' Mayday Parker got her powers in the middle of a high school basketball game.
* Lampshaded by Molly Hayes in ''[[Runaways]]''; when her powers developed, she kept trying to talk to her parents and friends about the weird things her body was doing, but they all thought she was just talking about normal puberty.
* Averted in ''[[Supreme Power]]'': toddler [[Alternate Company Equivalent|Hyperion]], upset by a barking puppy, incinerates it with his eyes.
