    Nope! '55 Doc's hair is a very light (almost white) blonde.

    Bleach or... Doc's hair is going slowly whiter and whiter.

    It does happen. Might have been an early experiment gone wrong too.

    I'm watching the series off and on thanks to AMC's BttF marathon they've been running lately. I really have a greater appreciation for the amount of detail Telltale gave to this game. The character models are really dead on.

    Doc wears a wig, silly people.

    People's hair can go white at that age.

    Yes, I know. I'm 30 and have a few gray hairs myself, thanks to my dad's genes. But it is BLONDE in '55, not white.

    Yet again, consider Doc's life. He works with all kinds of dangerous substances. Odds are one of his experiments did that to him.

    My great-grandfather went white at 25.. Philip Schofield eat your heart out!

    And no, "white" wasn't the Michael Jackson way.

    Or maybe it's just brown because your graphic settings are set too low. Setting them up a little might lighten his hair. :D

    That doesn't explain the concept artworks *hint hint*

    EIther way, I think the most likely explanation is that stress and/or his crazy experiments caused his hair to start lightening prematurely.

    Ahhh the search button *revives topic* just finished playing the first episode and this bugged me to no end, heh. Always thought Doc was a blonde as we can see from his 1955 counterpart... this notion actually amused me a lot.

    And now for something completely different...

    Silly Answers:
    - dunno maybe Emmett was a heavy smoker and his hair got nasty smokeryellow instead of white.
    - dunno maybe Telltale just wanted to match his last name... brown. *ba-dum tssh*
    - dunno maybe Telltale didn't want any dumb blonde jokes floating around.
    - blond hair?!... WITH HIS SKINTONE????!!!! OMG! D-:
