I had a very awkward Time Hex related thought.
I mean, Iāve made no secret aboutĀ āshipping it. Ā Because I do. Ā Like the Enterprise. Ā The coat is a metaphor and it isnāt and all that.
But I was thinking...mathematically speaking. Ā Itās a little awkward.
I mean, as far as I know, we donāt have official ages for either Rip Hunter or Jonah Hex in Legends of Tomorrow. Ā But since most of the characters seem to be about the same age as their actors, give or take, Iām comfortable enough with those.
So if we use the actorsā ages according to Google, Rip Hunter is 33 and Jonah Hex is 46. Ā
Now, the characters land in Salvation in 1871. Ā Calvert was 1868, three years before in Jonahās timeline.
For Rip, though, it was considerably farther back. Ā Pre-Miranda (hisĀ āthen-future wifeā) and before Jonas. Ā Jonas looks about 9 years old. Ā So if we assume that Time Masters age like normal humans, Rip would have been somewhere between 22-24 when they met.
So then, 43 year old Jonah Hex nailed college co-ed aged Rip Hunter. Ā Well done, man. Ā Well done.
