Stable DC Timeline (Part 1/5)

I’ve been thinking a while for what a “stable” comics universe would look like- one where time progresses normally, people grow up, etc. It would also be interesting to confine it to a single universe, instead of a vast multiverse. One of the major problems is that characters like Batman, who debuted in 1939, couldn’t plausibly still be running around rooftops in 2017 in peak athletic form 78 years later. However, it’s difficult to find a pacing that will fit all of the characters’ lives.

Under my stable timeline, time advances about ½ as fast in the DC universe as it does in ours. 1938 is the 0 year, with Action Comics #1, and each year after only counts as ½.

I used Batman’s life as a control point. He dies in Final Crisis, published in 2008. Given that in the Dark Knight Returns, he’s fighting crime at the age of 55, I imagine that Bruce Wayne wouldn’t be older than 60 at the time of his death. We can also put his age around 20 for his first appearance in 1939.

As a side note, with the exception of sidekicks, I put the starting age of crimefighters at 20 by default because it’s easy to do quick math with and it maximizes how long their career is.

This sets his birthday at around 1919. If time advanced the same, he would be 89 at the time of Final Crisis, which seems a bit unrealistic without, say, cybernetic enhancements. I wish to create the timeline without altering the characters- the only thing that should change is the setting, and maybe the amount of technology available. Even the tech can be explained away by the large amount of scientists and futurists in the DC Universe.

Another control is the birth of Damian Wayne. He first appears in 1987, and is a pre-teen (Let’s go with 10 years old for simplicity). This puts his birth at 1977. In an unadjusted timeline, Bruce Wayne would have fathered him at 58. In the adjusted timeline, he would have appeared half-way through 1962, which puts his birthday in 1952. Bruce Wayne would have been 33 at the time of his birth. Granted, as a healthy male Bruce would have been more than capable of fathering a child at 58, but Talia is generally presented as a peer so this may have been more unrealistic for her (Again, with the exception of any Lazarus Pit magic or what have you).

The Flash family is also an excellent way to gauge this. On an unadjusted timeline, Jay Garrick enters the scene in 1940. Barry Allen, inspired by comics about Jay, enters in 1956. Because of the indirect nature, any time gap is plausible. However, the Flash of Two Worlds in 1961 establishes that they are both active. I am using the ‘New Earth’ idea of a single, unified world so that we don’t have to worry about the rate of time passing on multiple Earths. So instead of being from another world, Jay is from the ‘sleeping’ Keystone City (Long story- check out Secret Origins v2 #50, pub 1990, for more information). In an unadjusted timeline, this story would be with a 41-year old Jay and a 25-year old Barry, both ages reasonable. Adjusted, it’s the year 1949, and the ages are 30 and 22, which is still reasonable.

The tricky part comes with the Wests. Kid Flash, AKA Wally West, comes on in 1960. Depending on the source, he started anywhere between the ages of 10-13. 10 is a number that’s easy to add, so in an unadjusted timeline, his birthday’s 1950. He becomes the Flash in 1986, in the aftermath of Crisis on Infinite Earths. He’s 36, which is still reasonable. However, he is implied to be college-aged. He also marries Linda in 2000, which would put him at age 50. Again, this is plausible, but still a little odd. The major problem comes in 2005, when they have twins. At age 55, it is very improbable that Linda, a completely normal human, would be able to have twins. Much with Talia, you could claim that it’s just speed force weirdness (Admittedly, in the story speed force weirdness caused her to initially miscarry, but then have kids later…), but I am trying to alter the story and the characters themselves as little as possible.

In an adjusted timeline, Jay Garrick comes on in 1939 at the age of 20. Barry Allen comes on in 1947 at the age of 20. They meet in mid-1949, waking up Keystone. Kid Flash starts in 1949 at the age of 10. He takes up the mantle of the Flash in 1962, during the aftermath of Crisis on Infinite Earths. He is now age 23. He marries Linda in 1969, at age 30, and they have twins mid-1971, at age 32. All these numbers now match up with the approximate tone of the character at the time.

We can also look at the Teen Titans timeline to verify Wally’s age. Unadjusted, Wally was a member of the original teen titans from 1964 – 1978. Adjusted, that’s from 1951 – 1958, so when Wally was 12 – 19. That’s almost spot-on for teenage years. Granted, he was on the New Teen Titans from 1980 – 1984 (Adjusted: 1959 – 1961) as a 20 – 22 year-old, but this team took the name on as a legacy more so than as a description of age.

However, we might see some issues with Dick Grayson, the first Robin. His first appearance was in 1940. Robin starts around age 8-10. Unadjusted, he’s going to be far too old for the teen titans in 1964, even if he was born in 1940. Adjusted, he’s 19 at the very youngest. This would still fit with the ‘teen’ titans, but he’s seen as a peer of Wally West. A 7-year age difference wouldn’t mean much once they got to their 30’s, but at this age, it’s a bit extreme. Additionally, he became Nightwing in 1988, not too long after flunking out of college (Which he only started attending in 1987). Adjusted, this would still be 1962-1963 that he’s in college, which is a bit late for someone in their early 30’s.

One solution would be to use the first earth-one appearance in 1952 as his origin. This would fit with later stories about Batman that imply Robin joined him much later in his career. Adjusted, this puts his origin in 1945. If he’s 8 at the time, setting his birthday at 1937, then he would be joining the Teen Titans at 14, being on the Titans from 14 – 21 (As well as from 22-24), and attending college from 25-26. We can now see a Dick Grayson who delayed going to college to support his team/crimefighting, and then attempted college. A 2-year difference between himself and Wally puts them as peers.

Additionally, this also means that instead of a 21-year old adopting an 8-year old, we have a 26-year old adopting an 8-year old. It doesn’t seem like much of a difference, but it can be significant at these ages.

We can also look at the other Robins to gauge their approximate age differences. Jason Todd’s first appearance was in 1983. Adjusted, that’s mid-1960. His age hasn’t been explored, but he was more than likely older than Grayson when he was adopted. I ended up choosing 12, setting his birthday at 1948. When he was adopted, Grayson was 23. Later stories note that there wasn’t much interaction between the two, and the big age gap can explain why. He died in 1963 at age 15 (Unadj. 1988) and came back in mid-1971 at age 23 (Unadj. 2005).

Timothy Drake is also a different case, given that we know he’s 13 when we first see him in mid-1963 (Unadj. 1989), putting his birthday at 1950. He always seemed younger than Jason Todd, which is why I decided to aim high on Jason’s age.

Damian Wayne, discussed earlier, first appeared in mid-1962 (Unadj. 1987), and was born in 1952. He’s the youngest robin. In fact, he’s the youngest of the family by a year.

Cassandra Cain is the only Batgirl adopted by Bruce Wayne. She first appears in mid-1968 (Unadj. 1999) at the age of 17, putting her birthday at 1951. Since she was adopted at an older age, she’s more independent, which is why we don’t see her as often.

Other things to think about were the Earth-two members of the Batman family (Notably, Helena Wayne, daughter of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle). Helena was born in mid-1947 (Unadj. 1957), making her the oldest Wayne daughter.
