Can someone do a quick rundown for those who don't read the comics (yeah. I haven't read any of the comics)? What are these 'eras' of the Marvel Comics? Key things I'd want to know is:
- What separates the different eras of the comics?
- Key characters in each era (specifically ones that are in MCOC, but if you want to name some others that's fine too)
- (optional) speculation on champs you think will be in each era's crystal?
To look back to the golden age of comics one would expect that either there will be new characters coming from the different ages or there will be alternate costumes of existing ones. The former is unlikely as Kabam has never added heroes aside from the two featured for the month. But if ever they do (Golden Age Crystals), I fear it will be milking of the whales all over again.
It does make my Spidey sense tingle when I see phrases like “rare chance” and “can be purchased.” Veterans know this can be code for “the good stuff will require spend and/or a 24/7 game commitment.”
Still, got to be optimistic. The team is trying.

We already got Namor recently. Seems like he woulda been perfect to introduce during this event, being one of Marvel's oldest characters.
The Silver Age is 1956 to 1970. This covers (deep breath) Spidey (Classic), Scarlet Witch, Iron Man, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Thor, Hulk, Daredevil (Classic), Invisible Woman, Torch, Thing, Annihilus, Diablo, Iceman, Cyclops, Beast, Archangel, Magneto, Black Bolt, Medusa, Karnak, Green Goblin, Doc Ock, Rhino, Electro, Dr Strange, Vision, Abomination, Ronan, Loki and a few others maybe.
The Bronze Age is 1970 to 1986, covering Luke Cage, Iron Fist, Rogue, Ms Marvel, Gambit, Gamora, Drax, Star-Lord, She-Hulk, Psylocke, Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Rocket, Ghost Rider, Blade, Punisher, Phoenix and others.
The Copper Age is 1986 to 2000 and the Modern Age is the present, covering Night Thrasher, Darkhawk, Cable, Deadpool, Bishop, Ms Marvel (Kamala Khan), Gwenpool, Agent Venom, Carnage, Venom, X23, Angela, Red Hulk, Quake and more
The eras are separated by time and the characters/comics being done. Golden Age is basically called that because it's when comics were HUGE and characters like Cap America, Namor, Superman, Batman, Shazam (cough), the first Flash, the first Green Lantern, Wonder Woman were all coming out.
The Silver Age is basically the period where DC launched it's rebooted Green Lantern and Flash and then the JLA and when Stan Lee was creating the majority of the Marvel universe. Avengers, Spidey, X-Men, F4, Daredevil, Inhumans, Black Panther, etc.
Bronze Age is the '70s and early '80s when you still had a lot of long-standing characters appearing and when the majority of the ethnically diverse/non-stereotyped characters debuted - Luke Cage, Shang Chi, White Tiger, Black Lightning, Storm all appeared in the 1970s along with Wolverine, Iron Fist and the other All-New All-Different X-Men.
1986 to 2000 is typically called the Dark Age because it's when Dark Knight Returns and Watchmen spawned all the Grim, Gritty, Violent comics of the late '80s and early 1990s and comics was all steroidal musclebound men and porn-star bodied women in tiny outfits and shoulder pads and pouches and big frigging guns and had names like Deathblade, Bloodstroke, Deathblood, Black Blood and that kinda mess.
