When Aldus was ten years old, Savage once again found his parents. Aldus survived because his mother hid him in a closet and told him to remain silent. The resulting tragedy motivated Aldus to study everything he could about Savage, leading him to become a professor. On April 8, 1975, Professor recorded himself on a video tape. He displayed knowledge of Hath-Set/Vandal Savage, Khufu and Chay-Ara's origins. He said that his immortality had come as a result of "unearthly calamity" and that anything related to that calamity would possibly reverse its effects. Professor Boardman also expressed his belief that Vandal Savage was the greatest threat Earth would ever face.

Death
According to history, Boardman would later die of unknown causes though possibly at Vandal's hands, which prompted rogue Time Master Rip Hunter to recruit a team and traveled back to October 17, 1975 to acquire information about Savage throughout history from Aldus before his death. At the time they enter his office, Boardman had dozed off and Kendra assumed he had already died. Suddenly, Aldus woke up and was surprised to see the spitting image of his parents, their reincarnations Kendra Saunders and Carter Hall staring right at him, standing in his office. Rip then interrupts him, claiming to be a fellow historian interested in Vandal Savage.
