With 1983 as the comics starting point and 1967 as the probable begining of the Joe's tours in Vietnam most of the above ages make since.
Hawk would have been 22-24 coming out of West Point. Since he was an O-6 at the start and we know he was an excellent officer. He would be 42-44 in 1983 getting fast tract promotions. Now most of the other Joe's you can take their rank into account for their age. depending on how old they were at enlistment and what rank they started at in the Joe's. Figure 18-21 average starting age for an enlisted Joe and 22-24 for an officer. Then add the following time in service years based on their rank. Now some can and would have ranked faster based on merit promotions but not all. This list does not include possible merit promotions. E-4 2-3 years in service. E-5 3-6 E-6 6-9 E-7 9-12 E-8 12-16 E-9 16+ 0-2 2-4 0-3 4-9 0-4 9-15 0-5 15-20 0-6 20-25 0-7 25-30 0-8 30-34 0-9 34-38 0-10 38+ Warrant officers are tricky. Hope that helps.

if you read the snake-eyes story when he get's the plactic surgery in the marvel run,during the flashback to when snake-eye's kills the veitcong members who where making a deal with the baroness's brother and talking with the m.p.'s afterwards we see a young james accompanying a older man in the silver destro mask.if i had to make a guess from the way he was drawn,i would say that destro(james) was about 16 or 17 years old,as well as the baroness from that time period so both would be at least 3 to 5 years your then snake-eyes.

Zartan was contracted by CC and Firefly to kill Snake Eyes right after 'Nam in the comics - he looked early to mid 30s there, so that would put him in his early to mid 40s around the time of his Joeverse debut.
Firefly's father was killed in the 1940s, so that may put him around the same age. Last edited by jason75; 05-19-2010 at 07:53 PM.. |
