Brown's age at the time of filming Black Panther and working back from his scenes, considering that T'Chaka is older than N'Jobu. The calculations for these dates and the dates that flashbacks are set are all relative to each other, and can be found in detail here.

- ↑ In Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Yondu says that he was sold into slavery as an infant and then spent 20 years in slavery, before Stakar Ogord freed him. Based on Michael Rooker's age when filming both movies, then working back from when both movies are set and taking an average, Yondu would have been born around January 1955, and so would have been sold around February 15th. 20 years later, he would have been freed around April 2, 1975. This fits with him then spending many years collecting Ego's children from 1975 up to any point between 1979 and 1988, then the final one, Quill, in 1988.

- ↑ In Alien Commies from the Future!, Biff insists that he had seen a flying saucer the previous night. With this being said in the early hours of July 21, 1955, Biff would have seen the flying saucer in the night of July 19, 1955.
- ↑ 57.0 57.1 57.2 57.3 57.4 57.5 57.6 In Out of the Past, it is explicitly said to be "July 22nd, 1955", making the events of Alien Commies from the Future! July 21, 1955.

- ↑ In Wig Out, it is said that Jackson Dillard was "8 years older" than Mariah. With Mariah's date of birth approximated to December 9, 1963 (see 1960s references), it can be approximated that Jackson was born around December 9, 1955, if not more generally meaning "1963 - 1955 = 8" then any point in 1955, approximating as mid-1985. Putting more weight in the specific December 9, 1955 but considering the possibility of generally 1955, a weighted average gives roughly October 17, 1955 - or, less specifically, October 1955 for Jackson's date of birth.

- ↑ In AKA Sole Survivor, it is shown that Alisa Jones was born in "1956" and seemingly died aged "44" in "2000".
