I've often posed the question of what the current "age" of comics should be called. For simplicity's sake, I usually refer to contemporary comics as the "New Age"--an umbrella term for DC's New 52 and Marvel's Bendis-shaped continuity that exist today.
Greg Burgas, at Comic Book Resources, has an interesting post about this topic that I thought was worth sharing.
