Doctor Doom, AVX #40 and "While active"

Doctor Doom - Reed Richards' Rival states:
While Doctor Doom is active, each non-Villain character gets -1A and -1D (no matter how many Doctor Doom dice you have fielded)


Page 18 of the AVX rulebook state:
Once gained, bonuses last until the end of the turn


I would like some additional clarification on the interaction of "While active" abilities and the rulebook statement from above. If I have Doctor Doom - Reed Richards' Rival and a level 1 Iceman - Cryokinetic fielded (normal stats of 2A/4D so modified to 1A/3D by Doctor Doom), and Doctor Doom gets knocked out, would Iceman remain 1A/3D until the end of turn, or would he immediately go back to 2A/4D?

Dr. Doom's ability works only while he's active, as soon as he isn't it goes away (and Ice Man returns to his full stats). The same would be true of any bonuses granted by a character more benevolent than Doom.
