It dawned on me earlier this afternoon that 2021 will mark 60 years since the publication of the first issue of FANTASTIC FOUR. I hope Marvel commemorate it in some form.
Then I thought, what are the important anniversaries? I know there won't be a consensus, but I thought I'd ask.
10 would certainly be one. If a title can notch up a decade, that's worth commemorating, I would have thought.
I'd say 25 is definitely worth commemorating. That's a quarter of a century.
And 50 would seem worth commemorating, too. Half a century after all!
So, 10, 25 and 50 would seem to be important milestones, worth recognition via a topic, special issue, magazine article, etc.
But what about other numbers? Should 20 be important? Or not, given 25 is a milestone?
What about 60? 65? Is one more important than another? Should we skip 60 and just wait for the 65th anniversary of something?
Beyond that, I'd say 75 is important. After that, well I guess 100 is. But 90 would seem impressive, too. At the same time, commemorating the 90th anniversary of something seems redundant as it seems more worthwhile to wait for the centenary.
Any views?
