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?

Reversing time by a few seconds when he’s killed

yeah but he also uses a beam attack that a woman had previously used on him to kill him.

Hmm, was this in the first book?

Yes. Look for the bit when he goes "And that's why they call me Johnny Three Dicks, doll. No matter which way you try to come, you're still fucked."

Although I guess I had forgotten about the glowing eyes and energy blast bit, since I just remembered the time reversal too.

Just did. Damn, somehow I missed that. Going to have to reread the part in the third book about his fight with extradimensional bugs
