Greetings all. I could use some help. I'm seeking a list of female characters that are between 6 and 10 feet tall and DO NOT have size-changing powers.

Saying its for kids when the original was so much more is a poor excuse.

No, it isn't. If this show is pleasing it's target audience, then who are you to say it's bad? It wasn't meant for you so of course you're going to hate it. You were, what, 9 or 10 when the original Ben 10 came out? You were the perfect age to be watching that show, and now that you grew up on it, you will always love it. Don't even try to tell me that if you were twenty when the show came out, you'd like it.

I can't speak for him but I was just over 20 when the original show came out and I loved it. Did I like the shows that followed and admitidly had a bit older PRIMARY target audiance better? Yes but that is the problem with these shows, for a golden time they made shows that had a primary target audiance but tried to apeal to other potintial fans as well, they mad the effort and it was apretiated but now most shows just go for the mind numbing cheep laugh.

@luphawk: well so far comics go as follows:

  1. 1500-1650 - Pioneer age
  2. 1650-1800 - Victorian age
  3. 1800-1938 - Platinum age
  4. 1938-1950 - Golden age
  5. 1950-1970 - Silver age
  6. 1970-1986 - Bronze age (aka Silver age 2)
  7. 1986-1992 - Iron age (aka Copper age, aka Dark age)
  8. 1992-1998 - Baroque age (aka Image age)
  9. 1998-2004 - Dynamique age (aka Millenium age)
  10. 2000-Now - New age (aka Diamon age)

Iron age to New age is concidered the Modern age.

Ages dates can varie a bit depending on editors/publishers/titles.

Never seen a listing like that before, where did you find it? I was only aware of Gold, Silver, Bronze and Modern with anything before gold being pulp. Over all I like this list. I considered calling the late 80s-early 90s the iron age myself, mostly to keep the metal theam going.

you have a 4 year overlap between 9 and 10 so what starts the new age in this? As I said I started the new age with the new 52, I could see rolling that back a few years to include the events leading up to the new 52 but not all the way back to 2000.

I take it Victorian and Platinum would be dominated by dime novels and such but what would even be considered comics in the 1500s?

Cool pics. I don’t know about the other wars but I know in WW2 comics were a standard item placed in care packages sent to the troops so many soldiers who didn’t reed comics before the war did after.

The reboot is awful. It’s getting to the point that I don’t even want shows to be rebooted anymore because too many go the way of teen titans go.

According to comicvine everything after DC’s Crisis on Infinite Earths in 1985 is the Modern Age of Comics, now in 2017 that makes it the longest age at 32 years. I’ve always thought of the word modern as something of a placeholder as even the golden age was modern at the time so I think there should be some new ages.

These are just some ideas but I suggest 3 ages.

First is the Extreme Age which would span from the end of the Bronze Age in 1985 until the mid to late 90s, not sure when it would end but it would be before 2000. This name references the trend of the time that everything was supposed to be extreme, many heroes armored up, stories got darker and big events like age of apocalypse, zero point, the death of superman… happened as well as several smaller, independent companies got their start.

Alternatively this could be called the Dark Age for many of the same reasons plus the near bankruptcy of marvel and them selling so many movie rights.

I’m not sure what the time after that would be called, the Millennial age maybe.

I would say we are now in the New Age of comics which started in 2011 with DC’s new 52 and continued with all new marvel and again DC’s Rebirth.

Thoughts? Opinions? Suggestions? Should I make a poll or am I just nuts?

Greetings all. I’ve been using comic vine on and off for years but never paid any attention to the forum till now (not sure why).

I’m interested in many things here, sci-fi, fantasy, comics, cartoons, anime, tokusatsu, kaiju… I may also be interested in some RP.

I’m working my way forward from the start of the golden age (currently in May 1943) and editing the wikis as I go so I don’t really know a lot about current events in comics other than the big stuff I hear about and invincible, the one book I’ve been reliably following for years (partly because my library has a subscription to the trade).
