RE: Copper Age Classic Comic Book - Wolverine from 1990
What is key about 1991 that some see it as the start of the Modern Age? I think I would be tempted to say mid-80's onwards would be Modern.

I wish I knew, and actually some keep 91 as part of the Bronze Age (myself included) and that would make 1992 the start of the Modern Age. Now if that is the case, I could make the argument easily that Image Comics starting up is what flagged the Modern Age versus Copper.
If I had my druthers, everything would be done by decade and date alone, it is weird when the Ages are based on art styles and story types or things of that nature.
It's confusing but I can see why key events and trends dictate the Ages - just wish they could all agree on the dates.
