With few exceptions, comic and cartoon children don't age despite the fact that time passes. Some notable examples are For Better or For Worse in which the characters age in real time; South Park, wherein the children grow from 3rd graders to 4th graders; Gasoline Alley, whose main character, Skeezix, has run the gamut from babyhood to old age; and Peanuts, where characters may start out as babies (i.e. Linus) and age until they're about the age of the other characters and then stop. In some cases, there are multiple depictions of a character as different ages (Archie/Little Archie), or in flash-forwards and flash-backs (common in the Simpsons).

This is a list of (human) comic and cartoon characters, sorted by the characters' age.

This is an incomplete list, which may never be able to satisfy certain standards for completeness. Revisions and sourced additions are welcome.
