[...you didn't have to talk about it, Colress, honestly, but Bruce does appreciate it all the same. Having more information is useful and this is... pretty useful indeed.

He frowns as he hears this, attempting to process this as quickly as he can. He's going to need more time later to properly go through this, but at least from his own inital thoughts--]

I'm not sure how his abilities actually work, but I assume that at least its something that occurs from a genetic level. In that case, it wouldn't matter what happened to him - its not as if genetics will change even if something on the outside happens.

[This, at least, is something Bruce knows to be certain... from personal experience.]

And if that is the case, then it seems that whatever those copies are, they arguably must have our DNA somehow.
