Forums: Index > Questions > Character Ages? (Archie Comics)


Could someone explain to me why Tails is 11 in the comics, as opposed to his usual age of 8, but none of the other characters are any older? I don't understand. This makes no sense. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MilesTailsPrower16 (talkcontribs)

Because the Archie Sonic Comics aren't the same as the Sonic video games. And most of the other video game characters featured in the comic series aren't the same age as they are in the video games, either. Archie does their own thing, while SEGA does their own thing, too. --Lightning the Hedgehog

Well, it still seems like if they're going to make Tails older, they should make the others older too. As it is, Amy is still 12, Cream is still 6, etc. I think they should have made the others older, too, to have things make more sense, unless this was a mistake on someone's part. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MilesTailsPrower16 (talkcontribs)

Also, Archie Comics used many elements of the Sonic the Hedgehog TV show (SatAM) in their comics. Tails was 10 in the show, while Sonic was 16 (not 15, like he is in the games). And in the comics, Sonic was in space for a year. That makes Tails 11. --Lightning the Hedgehog

Ok...and that suddenly gives them an excuse to refuse to make the others older too? I don't think so. They need to do what makes sense. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MilesTailsPrower16 (talkcontribs)

Does that mean that characters like Amy and Cream are now older than 12 and 6, despite what their Sonic wikia pages say? —Preceding unsigned comment added by MilesTailsPrower16 (talkcontribs)

Cream was introduced very recently, and probably hasn't aged much. Otherwise, per Gen. -- Supermorff (talk) 07:39, July 20, 2012 (UTC)

Hmm...well, it doesn't make sense that they'd be younger, especially since you said they've all been gradually aging. I think they SHOULD be 3 years older. If Tails is 11, that should logically make them 15 and 9. The fact that Cream was introduced recently shouldn't make a difference in age, if you ask me. She and Amy should both be older if Tails is, regardless of when she was introduced. For all we know, they may have met her at a different point in the comics than in the games. But as it is, I don't think either of their ages have been officially specified in the comics yet, despite what the wiki says, so I think it's all matter of speculation until anything official is revealed.
