Forge fought in vietnam, so it make him the same age as tony stark...
But the movie reality, Storm in x1 is in her early 30's not late 20's... the actress portraying the character is also in her early 30's so thats what age they will go with...
Forge on the other hand, the facts are known of his history, he thought in Vietnam,
Storm was born in the late 50's as her age by time she got to x-men in 1974 she was a teenager in her 18th or 19th birthday, there is no why she and forge could be the same age, Forge because he thought in the vietnam war which finished in 1975, and had to be what over 21 to join the army.... plus the number of stories of forge during the vietnam war which would suggest he was there for a long time.
This leaves Forge and Storm with a 10 year age gap...
Forge needs to be older, i thought that is what Storm was attracted to, she had the mentality of a goddess, an elder in a younger body, So the guys she looks for is Older than her.
i know what war he fought in velvet, the thing is the the writers stated the war took longer in then in mu then the one we know of that's what I'm telling you they told us. that claremont told us different things and she's dated Davis/ aka slip stream and he was younger then her so she doesn't always do that.
And I'm also telling you they changed lot of stuff. when did you stop reading? cause seriously those writer and you aren't in the same page cause they threw out a lot of that set age thing a long while ago.
look that's what he told us the age thing goes like this one second while i find it
ok spider man as they stated when civil war was going on he's 24 most of the heroes that started of as teenager's like the X-Men with a few exception like those like banshee wolverine and prof x are in their mid to late 20's that means guy 's like the new warrior's and most of the X and under are in their mid to late 20's and the rest of the newer heroes are in their teens.
said past event's in characters lives's such as the time Gambit left the Guild to how much time passed to the Event's of the massacre. Other then that I said it was a waste of time, and you'd have to Overhaul Each character in the MU From Capt. America( who's still in his Early 30's.)to who knows who? Forget it. It's wast of time. There are other thing's to Worry about.
that's what I mean. he's older but physically he's in his 30's and has been that Way for along time while ever X-Man not counting Wolvie, X, banshee, is younger push there Age up you have to Age Capt and other in the MU to Match and to make other character older you'd have to do the same to him(Capt. America) that's what I Mean by Overhaul ever one of the character's Ages and in Capt's case physically, and that 's just too much for every single one to be done.
Leave it where it is. before We end up with a big mess. we have Enough rescanned story only for this to happen and for that idea of Ageing them to be Retconned. and when that happen it will be the whopper of Retconned story's that will kill Every thing. No, NO. Leave it be Leave it Alone.
How so? and I better not that his Age was transfer through AOA bishop, time lost touching the Main stream Bishop.
As I said if you read that story the only thing that was transferred was Say it with me people "Memory" that issue of AOA X-Men Omega said nothing more, and that version disappear with Legion holding on to Legion.
I better not get his age was transferred or that a month that passes in or time is the same for them. Even if, that Character was left in a cliff hanger, which must be Addressed in the Following issue for the story to make sense.
which obviously takes place on that same Day we left that Character, which means that those character's are way behind us because that. As far as month are concerned.
What are ya telling me, as soon as a character is locked in a "I'm about to dye situation, "cliff hanger" how do I get out of this?"
Are you Actually saying That person About to kill them is taking that much of their sweet time,(since they should Run in the same time period as we do IYO.) to do the job of killing them? How does that make Sense? I ask you now.
And As I remember since marvel time was slow in and that Applies to every book, Bishop only stayed in that future a few short month's or week's, they never stated that years on end had past.
And they never Ever Stated his Age, when he First Appeared. just saying that he should be this age does not work unless they hint at his age.
Which they the writer's have never Done. unless you Can point to one where they Did hint at his age, when he made his first appearance.
This train of thought is umm, poor. I'm Not Trying to being Rude.
But I want better Evidence then what you've said. Something that was in the books that stated his age or gave hint of it.
Not because that's what he looks like to you. And your throwing wild guesses.
Which I think I've said a number of time's here. Just people are making the chose and are Trying very hard to Ignore that fact About the "Cliff hanger's". (and we all know comics only come on a monthly bases.) I don't want the answer AOA Bish Transferred his age to mainstream bish it was not said.in that issue or any other.
So I don't want it as an answer or we'll know what really is "Ludicrous"
here.
And If I remember correctly that age with beast was retconned in the hidden years
gambit - 23, supposedly it has been only 5 years continuity time since morlock massacre. gambit was around 18 when it happened.
rogue - 21, 22- claimed she was college aged in a new x-men issue after she had kissed gambit. probably closer to 22 as she was 18 when morlock massacre happened
storm 27-29? - most likely in late 20s as beast is supposed to be 30 though there's the retconn on his age and she is probably a couple years younger
bishop - 25- 30's? i guess he is around that age
thunderbird III? - no clue in 20's most likely
sage - around beasts age, probably late 20's to early 30's
ice man is 241/2
Emma is 25
jean is 25
cyclops is 27 - 28 now
angel is 28 to 29
storm is the near the same age as warren aka angel but older
oh my... Ok right About Gambit. and they didn't put the year that he was born. but this is what most writer's that I have talked to from marvel have been telling fan's since I've been able to talk to them.
BTW I'm talking about the original marvel universe and not ultimate like the other would answers seem to be talking about.
. that would have made thing more clear to answer your question. int he ultimate titles he's dancing on 15 -16 just like the original started from. but i'm more partial to the original universe. other wise known as 616. but we do cover the ultimate titles as you see on our web site.
So I blame them for useing the stupid idea of the six month when they knew they can't push that cause it'll change up all the ages. and cause confusion. when they still say other's like cap and dare devil and the other's are still in their early 30 physically anmd added to franklin Richards age. great job JOE Q.
BTW you have seen the JOE Q Friday back in the day right? about him " ~Clarifies the continuity of the X-books again"
and what he said there.
Quote
Q: “Otipep_90” - Hey Joe, with both the Astonishing and Uncanny X-teams out in space and with Rogue's team leaving the X-mansion, who will look after the New X-Men, if anyone at all.
JQ: Hey, Otipep. In case you missed the continuity clarification in one of my recent Joe Fridays (DON’T MISS A WEEK, FOLKS), here’s how it works. The “Torn” and “Unstoppable” arcs in Astonishing X-Men happen over the span of a few days. Those days will fit in neatly when the last Joss and John issue of Astonishing comes out. So Cyclops, Wolvie, Colossus, Kitty, Beast and Emma are still in the mansion watching over Rockslide and the rest of the kids.
from here .
http://www.newsarama.com/NewJoeFridays/NewJoeFridays24.html damn
and yet as we 've seen joss isnt' the only one that write like this. is he? this is why serial story arcs can't run in real time and we shouldn't expect them to.
or as I call them the Cliff hanger stories lines are what slow this down. real time can't apply If you do what they do in ultimate universe , all you'll get is unsatisfaction. cause Restarting continuously will get stale too.( damn I for got they reformatted newsarama any I'm sure they still have the article.)
And the concept was never a good one from the get go. when you think about it right. in order for written world to continue you have to look back. or make sure As to not step on the former writer's work never touch the subject or to integrate both his work with his in the proper manner. or don't ever touch up on it again. but you can't giving the character's memory's makes them seem more human as well. so then your really stuck.
this is why what they were pushing was bad concept with this.
this thing can't run in real time and never will . if you force it it'll cause confusion. and it is doing that right now. this is why it was never a good thing to discuss age of the heroes.
I know for lot of us it makes the character's seem more human, but then you have to over haul and if capt(yeah i know he's dead doesn't matter ther are others) and dare devil etc don't start showing back pain and other old people symptoms , this is a ridiculous thing to force other's that are younger then them into their age with them still being the same age.
it's too nonsensical. and besides them interacting with those other older in age characters makes marvel seem more like a real world more so then forcing the age's to some thing that'll cause's confusion.
see what I'm saying. this is what happens when you don' t put thought into doing certain thing's.
this why the new warriors got into the trouble they did too cause they just did and didn't bother to plan thing's out properly.
it has nothing to do with training it's what up in you head and how you Execute thing's . and it seem's a lot of us older people(mostly marvel) cant do that still in real life. blast it marvel.
the X-men are/were the start of the younger heroes and that's a cool thing. the fan base relates to them cause of that cause most of the fans are near those age's or younger. do a search on that link on X-men verses avenger's and guess what most fan's would choose. just cause of what I just said. other then that I don't know what to say especially the guy's at marvel saying storm 28 etc.
you can't change this thing with out having the other's ages as well . the Reason the is close to real to us is cause some things have to make sense. that's like forcing me to be my former bosses Charley's age. and I'm sure my family that was there for my birth will get confused cause all of sudden I'm Charley age and yet was born 2 year's after him. no thing's have make sense.
sorry and BTW I don't mind them ageing if you are seeing this.
but that's what happens when the whole phasing out things starts and some people will start dropping the book's cause capt and dare devil are in wheel chairs. and have dentures for teeth and need replacement's like what took place in batman Beyond. which was a very Cool show and I wished it went on.
But some people hated seeinbruce wayne like that.
Hey they show cased him as he was intended but the guy's not gonna live for ever. right? he needs someone to take up his mantle . but a lot of people didn't seem to like it, cause of that I know I had debates with them Especially on the video game forums. and sheesh people didn't , like it.
what can you freaking do.
