peter parker 24? GTFO

Remember, Peter got bite by the spider when he was a sophomore in high school, so that would put his age at 15 or 16 at the time he got his powers. He'll I could make and argument that he might have been younger and possibly could have skipped a grade since Peter was on damn near on some child prodigy shit. By my calculations I figure that possibly eight years has passed since he got his powers.

Supergirl is 18

Technically at 18 she wouldn't be a "girl." I just picture Kara as being in her mid teens.

Wally West and Nightwing to young

If figure that there's roughly a fifteen year age difference between Dick, Wally, The Batman, and Barry

isnt Superman suppose to be older than Batman since he space traveled and shit.

Depends on when the rocket left Krypton, Supes can be older, but you don't start calculating his age until he gets the too earth. I understand your point though, because technically Kara is older than Kal.

and Hal is suppose to be older also

You're right about Hal, I would put Hal closer to 40, and he was 34 when he got the ring.

The post-crisis DCU is irrelevant though so none of this even applies to current continuity. Every single DC character was de-aged 2 years ago. I'm sure some of the Marvel characters have been de-aged too though I'm not sure who they all are since I haven't regularly read Marvel books in almost 8 years outside of Amazing Spider-Man, Hickman's Fantastic Four, All-New X-Men and a handful of more obscure books like S.H.I.E.L.D., Secret Warriors, Waid's Daredevil and Rucka's Punisher. The only ones I know of are Peter Parker during the Brand New Day thing & Reed Richards who is now 6 years older than Susan as opposed to 9 years like it was originally.

These are comic books. Unless specifically stated in the books or by the companies themselves...can't really pinpoint how old these dudes are. Just giving ballpark estimates. Comic books run in a floating timeline. Stories that take a year are only like two days in the comic world. The whole Gambit series has been like a month or two in comic book time.

agreed. Currently, characters in both companies have been given the youth serum so they're younger than the original concepts
