How old are they now?
Dec. 20th, 2010 11:28 pm
For adventure, pulp and comic characters, personal time largely stands still; even if the events of the outside world may advance, their age will largely stay the same, oftentimes deliberately undefined. But I became curious as to how old various characters would be if the timeline advanced for them as well as the world at large. This list is the result.
In doing the age for these characters I generally based their birth age going from the first appearance, whether it was publish date or first television episode. Few characters had birth years listed in official sources, so I used ages given in the material when possible, grade levels and related indicators where not. And so, here we are:
HOW OLD ARE THEY NOW?
( Heroes of TV and Film: )
( Heroes of Literature: )
( Heroes of Comics: )
And so there you have it. There are definitely other characters that could be done, but many of them such as Clark "Superman" Kent don't have enough information to make a definite judgment of their age. But I'm willing to try. Does anyone else have characters that you want to have aged to the modern day?
