Harley was 11 in Man 3 which is set in 2013 I think. Thanos snapped in 2018 which makes/made him 16 at that time. I read somewhere that Harley was also snapped so he is technically still that age. So Harley was born in 2002 and canonicaly Peter was born in 2001 so it's actually Peter who is the older one. No messy age difference. As for the incest thing... I've only ever seen them written clearly as brothers, friends, or as boyfriends so yeah
See, this is the bizarre thing for me. A while ago someone was complaining because I wasn’t treating Harley as part of Tony’s family. They were saying that Harley was the firstborn lmao and when selectively comes to it, people change that (which is not a bad thing since fanon world allows you to bend and shape) to fit their fictional agenda. In this case, the harleypeter thing. Btw, this is not meant for you, op. I was just wondering.
This isn’t the first ask I got about this but this is the only one I’m going to answer.
Thank you for giving me the info, op♥
The MCU released an official timeline after Jon Watts made a mistake in Homecoming with the dates:
1943-1945: Captain America: The First Avenger
2010: Iron Man
2011: Iron Man 2, The Incredible Hulk, Thor
2012: Avengers, Iron Man 3
2013: Thor: The Dark World
2014: Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Guardians of the Galaxy, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2
2015: Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man
2016: Captain America: Civil War, Spider-Man: Homecoming
2016 through to 2017: Doctor Strange
2017: Black Panther, Thor: Ragnarok, Avengers: Infinity War
Iron Man 3 happened in 2012 in the fictional setting but in our world, it was 2013. When Harley was five years old his dad left and never returned because he was supposedly going to 7-Eleven to get lottery tickets. His father left in 2006 and Harley mentioned (2012) that it happened 6 years ago. Meaning you’re right, Harley was 11 in Iron Man 3. And yes, I believe Harley was also snapped because in the funeral scene he doesn’t really look that older, and if they wanted him to be they should have made an effort to make him look 22.
They’re the same age. Peter is supposed to be 17 in IW because there’s a two-year gap between HOCO and IW. Watts always confuses the dates (since homecoming too) but that’s normal, who wouldn't. So Peter is not 16 in FFH, he’s 17. Same age as Harley. Now, in case Harley didn’t snap that would make him 22 and he would effectively be older than Peter but that’s up to the directors and writers. Let’s see how they manage his age in the next movies.
So for the anon that said it was problematic, it’s not. They’re the same age. And for the incest thing, as long as you guys don’t write them as real brothers, I don’t think it is.
