Let's make this birthday one to remember.

55 years old (Born on January 22, 1970)

Happy Birthday, Alex Ross! May your day be brighter than Superman's cape and more epic than a Marvel-DC crossover. Your incredible artistry has given us timeless masterpieces like "Kingdom Come," where heroes aged gracefully—just as you do each year (though with fewer capes involved). From the visionary worlds of Universe X to Paradise X and Earth X, you've painted universes that captivate our imaginations.

Here's hoping this birthday brings joy worthy of an Avengers-level celebration—and cake slices bigger than Galactus' appetite. Keep inspiring generations through your legendary brushstrokes; after all, you're proof superheroes don't just exist on pages—they create them too!
