Kurt's Age when he joined

Post by Lauren »

How old was Kurt when he first joined the X-men? I mean, at first I thought he was in his early twenties but then I saw in UXM annual 4 that he was just turning twenty one. So how old was he when he joined? He couldn't have been very young...but he couldn't have been very close to twenty either.... I so confused!:eek

he was 20. you have to remember that time in the comic books moves MUCH slower than in the real world. a year in the books can take like, 4 real years. that annual happened back in what, early 80's? and Kitty was 13, she is only 19 now.

I always get confused when it comes to comic time versus real time, especially after issue 428 of UXM where it says something along the lines of twenty years ago, considering the times when Kurt was with the X-men and Excaliber! I figured that now he'd be about in his early thirties if they were going by somewhat average time thingies.

the '20 years ago' was an editorial mistake, and it should have read at the very least 25. Chuck has been writing him as in his mid to late 20's, personality wise, but the editors added that bit before printing, and he wasn't aware of it until it was printed. if you figure it out using Shadowcat as a guide, considering she was recently stated to be 19 years old, Kurt would be 27 currently.

lol, Kitty's the guidelines for Kurt's age:LOL

Yeah, that does sound about right actually. Not too old, but not too young to be inexperienced either...Yay!

well, in the annual you mentioned, Kitty said she was 13, and Kurt just turned 21. she was recently stated to be 19 in MekaniX... you do the math ;) kitty is a good character to use as a guideline for character aging, because her age is stated more often than most other characters. so if you know how old a character was in comparison to her at any point in the past, you can figure out a close guess for their current age.

*Does some quick math* so that means that Kurt is exactly eight years older than Kitty so whatever age she is, add eight to it! YAY, I'm learning math skills with Nightcrawler!

The only thing that I didn't like about Movie Kurt was that he looked too old. I like him in his twenties, that's how I always think of him, but when I saw the film I was dissapointed to see him looking mid-thirtyish.

I know he is, and I think he's a wonderful actor and did a great job with the part, however, I think he looks a bit old for it.

I love alan dearly, but in the part where he does the lord is my shepherd part, does anyone notice that he looks a bit older in that scene than all the others? Creepy...

Well i do think Allen looks a little to old for it but i like him as NightCrawler. I like NightCrawler in his twenty or older(but not like in his 50's or nothing). Think that why i don't like Evo Kurt as much. Just seemd too young.
As for that sence i don;t know realy i would have to watch it again(thuogh i have watched way to many time al ready).
Sorry for any miss typing or miss spelling.
If (sp) is by the word that means i don't know how to spell it.

Perhaps he was aged by grief? ;)

Yes, but it almost seemed like he had suddenly gotten wrinkles on his face! I was so scared when I saw that on alan's face!

That's because of the tattoos, but if you notice, the guy actually looks younger for his age.
when you put layers and layers of make up on, the tiny wrinkles in your face are more noticeable.

I believe ultimate crawler is about 15 now... they stated his age as fourteen in the arc with weapon x.. and then the arc where Kurt comes back Moira mentions how much english he had learned by watching tv over the last "year".... so, around 15-ish

I know...Alan is so hot for someone at the age of 38! *squee*

Still, if Ultimate kurt were just one year older, it would be a bit more healthy for a 16 year old to love him.:love

Though I believe that Ulti-Kurt is 15 or whatever, its hard to imagine all those muscles and sezzy bulges and pecs are on a guy who's been alive for a decade and a half. im not complaining though....same age diff as my last boyfriend.
