Now, we all know the DCU has been around for quite some time now, since like the 30s I believe (with the introduction of Supeerman). And ever since, we've been getting new characters popping up and such. But had anyone noticed that time seems to change in the comics but the heroes stay young? I mean, at first I figured that Batman should be nearing 70 now, as well as other heroes, but then I remembered the number of universal reboots (COIE, Zero Hour, and now IC and OYL) and I'm guessing that everytime the DCU's history gets rebooted as well as the heroes, the time period in which they first appeared is changed to a more modern time.
Makes sense.
But what about years from now? I'm talking like 30-40 years from now or something. Time will def. be different here, but what about the comics? Will the comic time period be updated to match our own? Will it be kept the same? Will there continue to be more and more reboots that effect the heroes as well? Or will DC finally put some of these heroes to rest and introduce some new ones (like have Tim finally take the Batmantle, etc.)?
What do you think?
