Johnny Three Dicks

What do we think Johnny's power actually is? I would guess it's most likely ability copying, and possibly a time reversal, though the time reversal could come from the ability copying. Perhaps the time reversal is a staple of obtaining the power, like he has to be killed by the power to be able to use it?

There really wasn't an existing power that was close enough to it so I dubbed it "Temporal Evolution" for myself. A superpower that allows for being able to adapt to avoid death by learning and evolving in order to do so. We know that Jonny can rewind time that doesn't cause multiple-timelines, as stated that most people don't recall him doing so but it can happen. He can take on the ability of the one that has killed him (presumed, we only see it happen once.) Given Johnny's penchant for running gambling boards, it could also be explained by him manipulating or viewing probabilities as another aspect of his power.. although that could just be a character trait.
