How old the various QC characters are

(1/3) > >>

bhtooefr:
Amir: 35 in comic #1180 (2008 IRL)
Dora: 26 in comic #144 (2004 IRL) and 26 was "a good guess" in comic #1928 (2012 IRL), although she could have been misleading in #1928
Ellen: 17 in comic #231 (2004 IRL), presumably turned 18 before comic #296 (2005 IRL)
Faye: 19-20 as of her father's death, 2 years plus a few months prior to comic #507 (the few months from comic #458) (2005 IRL), making her 22-23ish I'd guess as of #507
Hannelore: Turned 22 in comic #1069 (2008 IRL)
Hannerdad: Turned 56 in comic #2129 (2012 IRL)
Henry: Late 50s per Jeph as of 2013 IRL (at same time as comic #2398, filler comic)
Jim: 40 in comic #1954 (2011 IRL), turning 41 in "July" in-comic
Marten: Younger than Dora? (Based on Faye humming Mrs. Robinson in comic 144), Older than Tai?
Samantha: 13 in comic #1958 (2012 IRL)
Steve: 24 in comic #224 (2004 IRL)
Sven: 1 year older than Dora in comic #337 (2005 IRL)

Loki:
Samantha is 13 in 2012.

pwhodges:
You should refer the ages to comic number, not real-life years, because time in the comic does not advance at the same speed as in the world.

bhtooefr:
True, although it also helps establish time flow.

pwhodges:
Also, Dora doesn't confirm her age as 26 to Jim in comic 1928 - she only says it's a good guess.  She could be covering for 27 or 28 perhaps.
