APDallas Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I was talking to fellow collectors and the topic came up that it has been over 35 years since the end of the copper age. Usually it has been 10-15 year cycles to name a new age of comics. What would you consider a new age and why? Here is my suggestion: 1992-2000 I would call the CHROMIUM AGE due to the rise of Image comics and the trend to enhance the comics with gimmicks and variants. 2000-2010 I would call the SILICON AGE due to the rise of digital comics. What do you think? Have a suggestion of your own? Let's hear it. No 1 Records 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadroch Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 (edited) I know this is crazy but I divide my books like this- Gold, Silver, Bronze, Copper, 90s, older drek, newer drek. It works for me. Edited December 28, 2021 by shadroch adampasz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Readcomix Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Not every year in human history since 1938 needs to fall into a comics era. This idea is a trap we have fallen into as a hobby. Jose Quintana and PopKulture 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
