PUNISHER: RED XMAS #1 (20-33)

The morning after PRX 1 (8-19). At "24 minutes after midnight," Suspiria arrives at Frank's apartment and they fight. Punisher

wins and binds and interrogates Suspiria. That morning, Suspiria's body is dropped on Regina's car. She calls a meeting with

the other wives and the Punisher shows up and kills Regina. He tells the rest that they have 24 hours to get out of the country,

but they have to make a donation to Santa Claus first.

Friday, January 2

PUNISHER: RED XMAS #1 (34)

The snowy day after PRX 1 (20-33). Dressed as Santa Claus, the Punisher collects the money from the departing wives.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #12 - FB (17:4-18)

One day, shortly before M/TU3 4 (19-20). Titannus arrives on earth.

Saturday, January 3

WOLVERINE: SOULTAKER #5 (24)

One day, a "few days" after W:S 5 (1-23). Given the reference to Sunfire and Silver Samurai in W:S 1, this segment must occur

before ROGUE3 7 (1-12). While Wolverine, Yukio, Amiko, and Mana eat, Mana reveals that Amiko is her descendant and

offers to train Amiko. It is "Girl's Day," March 3, but this reference may be topical.

[BTS]

One day, probably two or three days before X:KPSF 1 (1). Puff is photographed by her abductors.

Sunday, January 4

MARVEL HOLIDAY SPECIAL 2004 #1/3

On the snowy night before Franklin's holiday school break ends, Franklin gets Herbie to type up his school report about how he

and his family celebrate the holidays.

Monday, January 5

X-MEN: KITTY PRYDE - SHADOW & FLAME #1 (1)

One day. At the Xavier Institute, Scott gives Kitty a letter from Japan. It turns out to be a ransom note, with a photograph of

Puff, Lockheed's ex-girlfriend. Green grass and trees at Westchester.

NEW X-MEN: ACADEMY X #7

One school day, sometime after X 161, since Sammy's death and the Brotherhood's attack are mentioned. David's kid sister,

mutant wannabe Kim, visits the school. Rahne and Josh share a kiss. Noriko calls home only to be rebuffed. The New Mutants

train the Danger Room. Weird things happen at Xavier's and Kim believes she's a mutant who can talk to the suspected ghost

responsible. Jay's statement, "after Sammy died," and Shan's statement, "We lost some rare first editions when the school was ...

attacked," indicate that this issue occurs after UX 164. Gambit is teaching a projectile class, so his sight is back - that places this

issue after X 165 (9-24) and quite likely after school reconvenes following the Christmas break in M/HOL'04 1/2. Appearing as

teachers in this issue are Gambit (whose sight must be back, since he's teaching a projectile class), Nightcrawler (in new

costume, teaching dramatic class), and Beast (who, in civilian clothes, gives out a science assignment "for next week"). "It's

freezing" and jackets are worn by some at the Institute. Kim must have a school vacation - perhaps a prolonged holiday/winter

break? Green grass and autumn leaves at Westchester.

NEW X-MEN: ACADEMY X #8 (1-14)

The same day as NX 7. After the Danger Room mysteriously turns on, the New Mutants are convinced that a ghost is at the

Institute. Cyclops suspects Julian to be the culprit. Josh and Kevin get into an argument. Cyclops and Emma are here in Reload

costumes and Beast is in civilian clothes. Jacket weather at Xavier's. Both bare and leafy trees (in silhouette) are seen at

Xavier's.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #1 - FB

One school day. This flashback must occur after ASTONX3 6 (20-23). Given X-23's appearance in M/TU3 5-6, this storyline

must occur after UX 454 and probably after X 165 (9-24). A mutant boy, Paul Patterson, manifests his powers in Peter's high

school. Wolverine (sent by Scott) attacks and Spidey webs him up. We see trees with green and autumn leaves.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #1

The same day as M/TU3 1-FB. Logan escapes from Spidey's web while the mutant boy leads Spidey to his home, where Spidey

finds a corpse.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #2 (1-18)

The same night as M/TU3 1. Referring to Wolverine and Spider-Man, Patterson notes, "so this is what we're left with after the

Avengers disbanded"; this places this story after A:FINALE and before the New Avengers are public. Logan is still complaining

about his costume: "Friggin' Cyclops and his friggin' new costumes. 'We have to astonish them.' Give me a break." Spidey

remarks that Logan is "on so many teams" (this was written as a reference to his being on the Avengers, but it can't work that

way; Spidey must know about Logan's being on all the X-Men teams somehow). Logan catches up with Spidey at Patterson's

home and the two defeat the threat, causing an explosion. Logan calls SHIELD in to wrap up. Someone resembling Dr. Doom

materializes in Latveria. We see green trees and a full moon.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #3 (1-3)

The same night as M/TU3 2 (1-18). Dr. Strange detects the entry of "Dr. Doom" into his plane of existence. Full moon.

Tuesday, January 6

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #2 (19-23)

The day after M/TU3 2 (1-18). Logan returns to the Institute, where he sees Jubilee leaving to move to L.A., which places this

segment before JUB 1. A sleepy Peter Parker reports to work at school. Jubilee notes that Logan has "been away from the

mansion these last few weeks" - perhaps since X 165. Green trees in New York and autumn colors at Westchester.

JUBILEE #1 (1-4)

It must be the same day as M/TU3 2 (19-23). Jubilee arrives in L.A. to live with her Aunt Hope. Green grass and trees in L.A.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #3 (4-21)

The day after M/TU3 3 (1-3). The FF live in the Baxter Building, and Johnny has a date (a gallery opening) with Kourtney

"tonight," so it may be between FOUR 12 and FOUR 13 (6-11). He and Ben get in a fight over a practical joke, then "Dr.

Doom" shows up and battles the FF. Realizing that something is amiss, "Dr. Doom" leaves, then Dr. Strange arrives and leads

the team to where "Dr. Doom" is. After another skirmish, "Dr. Doom" reveals himself to be an alternate universe Tony Stark.

Patterson materializes in upstate New York, where Hulk is. Moon Knight and Hulk cameo.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #4 (1-18)

The same day as M/TU3 3 (4-21). It's a mail delivery day. The alternate Stark robs the FF of their powers and leaves after

Strange shows up. Johnny ends up in the hospital with a broken collarbone. The alternate Stark goes to Stark Enterprises to seek

a power source and, detecting Patterson, jets upstate and saves the boy from the Hulk.

NEW X-MEN: ACADEMY X #8 (15-22)

The day after NX 8 (1-14). Emma suggests that Kevin see a therapist. Laurie and Josh go to have dinner with her mom.

Suspecting that the ghost is a student who died in "Magneto's" attack, Kim and the other New Mutants try to find clues in a

nearby cemetery. There they encounter a specter of a boy who teleports them away. It is a school day at Xavier's. "It's

freezing" and jackets are worn at the Institute. Bare trees and green grass and brush at Westchester.

NEW X-MEN: ACADEMY X #9 (1-9)

The same day as NX 8 (15-22). The kids return to the cemetery, where they are found by Dani and Shan. Dani tells the group

that the ghost is Jeffrey Garrett. Laurie and Josh end their date and Rahne breaks things off with Josh. Green trees at

Westchester. Full moon.

X-MEN UNLIMITED v2 #8 (8:4)

One day. Warren Worthington visits disabled children.

X-MEN: KITTY PRYDE - SHADOW & FLAME #1 (2-14)

The day after X:KPSF 1 (1). This segment occurs "just" after Logan returns to the Institute from W:S 5 (24); I have Logan's

return in M/TU3 2 (9-23). At the airport outside Tokyo, Kitty meets Ryoko from the Japanese Department of Supernatural

Sciences and they go to their headquarters. It's revealed that a ninja group called the Path of Destiny stole Puff from the LDSS

and sent the note. Kitty goes to her hotel room, sends an e-mail to Wolverine and tries to call Yukio, but no one answers. She

decides to hit the town. Green grass and trees in Tokyo.

Wednesday, January 7

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #4 (19-20)

The early morning after M/TU3 4 (1-18). This segment occurs after M/TU3 12-FB (7-8). Titannus observes everything and is

interrupted by Sunfire. We see snow flurries in the air and accumulation on bare treetops in New York.

JUBILEE #1 (5-13)

The day after JUB 1 (1-4). On Jubilee's first day at her new school, she meets a nerd named Meg Devereux and they go the mall

afterward. There, Jubilee attracts the attention of popular guy Dale Spangler and his jealous girlfriend Missy Lopez. Jubilee is

introduced as "a new student" to the rest of her class, meaning that the school year has already started at Payton-Noble High.

Green trees in L.A.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #5

The same day as M/TU3 4 (19-20). This story must occur after UX 454 and probably after X 165 (9-24). Sunfire battles

Titannus and Spidey battles Cardiac at dawn of a school day. Storm catches X-23 watching security monitors at the Institute and

notices a blip worth investigating. Sue insists that Reed get some sleep after being up all night. Peter Parker reports to work late

and he gets a phone call at school from Patterson, who is held captive by the alternate Stark. Parker has Reed trace the call and

he heads to Stark's place, only to run into X-23. The two fight and are caught by the alternate Stark. Cyclops is seen in a "third

fitting" for his Reload costume. Johnny is noted as being released from the hospital. Green trees in New York.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #6

The same day as M/TU3 5. This story occurs between CA5 32 and FOES 4 (6-21). According to the X-Men Handbook, this

segment occurs before UX 455 (5-15). Fury is probably here before the Enemy of the State storyline. Spidey calls Cap "Steve"

and refers to himself as "a fellow Avenger" - this may be a reference to Spidey's previous stint as an Avenger, not as a New

Avenger. "It's been a while" since Cap last saw Natasha, which was probably in A 503. Cap sees Nick Fury and Black Widow

aboard the Helicarrier and they discuss the Diamondback LMD. As Spidey and X-23 battle the alternate Stark, the energy

signature from the ersatz Stark's work is picked up by SHIELD and Reed Richards notes the threat. Cap and Natasha join

Spidey and X-23 in battling the alternate Stark (apparently from an alternate future), who notes an upcoming "Titannus War."

Patterson explodes and winds up in Canada with the Wendigo. SHIELD captures the ersatz Stark and Dr. Strange makes note of

it. Titannus leaves the fallen Sunfire. Full moon.

MARVEL TEAM-UP v3 #7 (1-2)

The same night as M/TU3 6. Titannus returns to his ship and his beloved, Amissa, who is in stasis.

NEW X-MEN: ACADEMY X #9 (10-20)

The day after NX 9 (1-9). David and Noriko have a talk, Dani and Josh have a talk, and Emma takes Kevin to a psychiatrist to

have a talk. "That night," the New Mutants hold a seance and call forth Jeffrey, who tells his tale and repents. This story is

supposed to occur during the semester before NX 10, since in that issue Kevin notes that Josh and Laurie "started dating" "last

semester," but since this storyline must occur after Christmas break, Kevin may have meant "last term." Dani still thinks that it

was Magneto that destroyed the Institute in NX 9-FB. Kim Alleyne is "fourteen" It is a school day at Xavier's. Green grass and

trees at Westchester.

X-MEN: KITTY PRYDE - SHADOW & FLAME #1 (15-24)

The day after X:KPSF 1 (12-14). Kitty is attacked by four thugs in Tokyo. She beats them up, and Lockheed arrives and stops

them from attacking again. The thugs go to a nearby bar, where they meet the ninja who hired them. After killing the thugs, the

ninja talks on the phone with Nao. Green grass and trees in Japan.

X-MEN: KITTY PRYDE - SHADOW & FLAME #2

The same day as X:KPSF 1 (15-24). At JDSS headquarters, Ryoko talks to her boss, Miyashiro. Kitty is woken from a dream by

a phone call and goes to the Tokyo Tower, where she's attacked by ninjas. All escape but one, who kills himself. After cleaning

up and changing clothes, Kitty goes to the JDSS headquarters to ask Ryoko more questions. Kitty and Ryoko chat. Meanwhile,

Lockheed finds a device under the bed in Kitty's hotel room. Kitty leaves the JDSS headquarters and finds Lockheed, who's

been knocked unconscious by the device. Kitty is then approached by Nao, who's wearing an Ogun mask. Green trees in Tokyo.

X-MEN: KITTY PRYDE - SHADOW & FLAME #3

The same day as X:KPSF 2. Kitty and Nao fight throughout Tokyo, while Nao leads Kitty to her underground lair under the

subway system. Once there, Kitty is asked to lead the Path of Destiny.

X-MEN: KITTY PRYDE - SHADOW & FLAME #4

The same day as X:KPSF 3. Nao explains the Five Swords of Secrets and reveals she has one of them. Kitty offers, instead of

leading them, to get them a second sword, the Silver Samurai's. Nao agrees. Before she leaves, Kitty visits the dragons. At

JDSS headquarters, Ryoko talks to her boss. At the Clan Yashida compound, Kitty asks Keniuchio to borrow his sword and

challenges him to a duel. Kitty wins, but she had to "kill" him to do it. In the underground lair of the Path of Destiny, Nao is

informed of the Silver Samurai's "death," then plans to betray Kitty.

X-MEN: KITTY PRYDE - SHADOW & FLAME #5

The same day as X:KPSF 4. This story must occur before ROGUE3 7 (1-12) and perhaps before A4 1. In the underground lair

of the Path of Destiny, Lockheed wakes up and plays with Puff while Nao prepares for Kitty's return, but she's already there

disguised as a ninja. They decide to trade the dragons for the Silver Samurai's sword, but Kitty shows up again. The first Kitty

is revealed as Ryoko in disguise by an image inducer. Nao is pissed, then the Silver Samurai shows up alive. This really pisses

Nao off, so she starts a big fight. Nao eventually escapes and the Path of Destiny ninjas are captured. Silver Samurai gets his

sword back and the dragons are freed. Later, Kitty gives the sword the Path of Destiny had to the JDSS. They give her some

plane tickets and she heads back to the states.

JUBILEE #1 (14-23)

The day after JUB 1 (5-13). Missy picks a fight at school with Jubilee, who retaliates with her power, exposing herself as a

mutant. To avoid expulsion, Jubilee agrees to be a peer counselor. Dale apologizes for Missy. Green trees in L.A.

One day, probably shortly before X 166. A mutant woman gets into an argument with Butterfly-Bore at the mutant settlement at

the South Pole.

Friday, January 9

JUBILEE #2 (1-11)

The day after JUB 1 (14-23). The reference to "school tomorrow" is a joke. On a school day, kids pick on Meg and Dale tells

Jubilee that he and Missy broke up. That night, Aunt Hope gives Jubilee at moped. My guess is that this is the Monday

following JUB 1 (14-23). It is indeed "not 24 hours" before JUB 2 (15-22). Green trees in L.A.

FOUR #13 (1-5)

One day, after FOUR 14-FB (2:3-2:4). It is "four days" before FOUR 13 (6-11). Philip Masters greets Alicia after an eye

transplant restores her sight.

One day, "two months" before AAF2 13/2 (3-8). In the Microverse, Cinglet and Xennon investigatw a strange asteroid that has a

space station attached to it. They enter the vessel and discover an alien language written on the walls and a cryogenic tube

containing a figure.

AMAZING FANTASY v2 #14/2 - FB (1-2)

The same day as AAF2 13/2 (1-2). It is "two months" before AAF2 14/2 (3-8). Cinglet and Xennon pull the cryogenic tube onto

their spaceship and examine it further. Their ship's computer quickly translates the writing found in the ancient vessel, and they

read it to find that the figure placed in the cryogenic tube was placed there as punishment for a crime. Just then, some sort of

energy/meteor shower sweeps through the region, striking Cinglet and Xennon's spaceship.

Tuesday, January 13

FOUR #13 (6-11)

One day, "four days" after FOUR 13 (1-5). It is "two months" after FOUR 12 and thus at least two months before FOES 1.

Kourtney is planning to move to L.A., so she likely appears here after M/HOL '04 1/3 (9:3-9:5) and M/TU3 3 (4-21), and after

this Johnny probably dates Sabrina, as noted in W2 22. "It's been years since [Ben] and Alicia dated officially." The FF host a

"Welcome Back" reception to announce that "after a year of retrenchment...the Fantastic Four's corporate, philanthropic, and

educational divisions are back in business." Reed notes that "it's been a trying, confusing 12 months for Fantastic Enterprises";

this reference may be to the previous calendar year, much of which was marked by the Latveria debacle and the embezzlement.

Despite the business relaunch, the FF will continue to struggle to get ahead, as noted in FF 527. Reed also notes that he has "an

expedition scheduled for later this month" (which is seen in pages 15-16). Sue has put teaching on hold while getting business

affairs back in order, but she hopes to return to it. Cap and Iron Man appear. Alicia's body rejects her new eyes and Philip

Masters tells the surgeon he's blackmailing to proceed with another operation "tomorrow." We see green trees and roses in

bloom, but they may be topical or may be interpreted as being in an indoor nursery.

NEW X-MEN: ACADEMY X #10

One day. Logan must appear here before W3 20 (2:3-2:4). It is a school day at the Xavier Institute. It's the first day of an

elective class on leadership and tactics taught by Cyclops. Feeling a bit useless, David sees Emma Frost to investigate the limits

of his power. Emma tells him that a mental block prevents him from retaining knowledge he absorbs. David decides to have

Emma lift the blocks, but instead she and Dani show him the possible consequences of his unfettered power through a mental

illusion. Green grass and trees at Westchester.

NEW X-MEN: ACADEMY X #11

The same day as NX 10. Thanks to the vision shown to him by Dani and Emma, David understands his mental block and

chooses to keep it. "Later," Kevin tells Josh to break up with Laurie or he'll tell the whole school about his relationship with

Rahne"last semester" (presumably in NX 6).

NEW INVADERS #1

One day, long enough after INV3 0 for attacks on Mazikhandar to occur "at regular intervals." With Jim Hammond, the Invaders

stop an attack of the Pterorists, an army of insectoid creatures, in Mazikhandar. Tara gets clothes. Thin Man explains his

mission to stop the Axis Mundi from replacing world leaders with synthezoid replicas by using the Invaders and a warship he

built called the Infiltrator.

NEW INVADERS #2 (1-4)

The same night as INV3 1. At "0200 hours" Mazikandarian time, Hammond and Namor discuss the Invaders and the Axis

Mundi. Full moon.

Wednesday, January 14

NEW INVADERS #2 (5-22)

The day after IN3 2 (1-4). Shortly after "0900 hours" Mazikhandarian time, the Invaders arrive at the Infiltrator, where Thin

Man asks Hammond to be tactical leader of the team and Walker and Chapman argue. The Blazing Skull notes that he "spent the

last decade in a Saudi prison camp." A dead, captive Pterorist sends a signal that brings the Pterorists to the presumably cloaked

ship. The horde is led by the Axis Mundi.

NEW INVADERS #3

The same day as IN3 2. The Invaders battle the Pterorists and the Axis Mundi around "11:17" Yemen time. The Pterorists are

defeated and the Axis Mundi escape, and USAgent is wounded in the melee. After securing the Infiltrator, the group reconnoiter

at "16:00 hours" Pakistan time.

Thursday, January 15

JUBILEE #2 (12-14)

One day. A weekend (at least) must have passed since JUB 2 (1-11). At school, Jubilee is told to start her counseling

"tomorrow." That night, Aunt Hope leaves for a business trip "until tomorrow." Green trees in L.A.

UNCANNY X-MEN #455 (1-4)

One day in Valencia, Psylocke appears out of nowhere on the spot where she died and is arrested by Action Force.

Friday, January 16

JUBILEE #2 (15-22)

The day after JUB 2 (12-14). It must be more than just "two days" before JUB 3 (14-17). It is indeed "not 24 hours" after JUB 2

(1-11). Jubilee makes a move on Dale, but he tells her that he and Missy got back together. Jubilee gives advice to Meg. That

night, Aunt Hope comes home hiding a wound she received at her "work." Green trees in L.A.

UNCANNY X-MEN #455 (5-15)

The day ("24 hours") after UX 455 (1-4). It is "not long" after XX 4. According to the X-Men Handbook, this segment occurs

after M/TU3 6. The XSE team practices in the Danger Room and X-23 disrupts the training when she believes Logan to be in

danger. Wolverine receives a phone call from old flame Mary McKenna and heads to Alberta, while the rest of the team are sent

to Spain. Sebastian Shaw is noted as still being in the hospital following the "recent" events of UX 454. Cyclops notes that X-

23 is "new" to the Institute. It is a school day at the Institute (and X-23 is supposed to be in Karma's class). Green trees in Spain

and snow in the Canadian Rockies.

The same day as UX 455 (5-15). Wolverine battles the Hauk'ka after they attack his plane in Alberta.

UNCANNY X-MEN #455 (16-23)

The same day as UX 456-FB. In Spain, the X-Men are shocked to see Psylocke alive. After Betsey is remanded to XSE's

custody, they receive a distress signal from Logan's plane and arrive in Alberta to find a hysterical X-23 warning of a threat as

the Hauk'ka approach the team. Logan is nowhere to be found and it is presumed he finds his way back to Westchester after this.

UNCANNY X-MEN #456

The same day as UX 455 (16-23). The Hauk'ka attack, turn Rachel against her teammates, and defeat the X-Men. X-23 escapes

and frees Psylocke, who engages the creatures in battle. The Hauk'ka get away with the captive X-Men and X-23 and Psylocke

go after them. Snow in Alberta.

UNCANNY X-MEN #457 (1-16)

It is either the same day as UX 456 or the next day, depending on how long it takes the Hauk'ka to get from Alberta to the

Savage Land. It is "days" before UX 457 (17-22). The Hauk'ka imprison Kurt and Bishop in the Savage Land, where they meet

captive Saurians. The Hauk'ka discover that Kaidan's telepathy has triggered a genetic remodeling in Rachel, who believes

herself to be Hauk'ka. The captive Storm causes severe weather in the Savage Land and the Hauk'ka hatch a plan to use Rachel

and Ororo to cause global hyper-storms. Psylocke and X-23 arrive in the Savage Land. The Hauk'ka have been in the Savage

Land for "months."

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #1

One day. This story occurs shortly after CA5 8-FB (12:3), a "week" after CA5 1-FB (12-18), "months" after CA4 32, and "five

years" after CA5 1-FB (1-5). The intelligence community reports on the Skull's presumed death in this issue "nearly a year"

before CA5 21 (18-22). We see an old Daily Bugle headline announcing the disbanding of the Avengers, so this story must

occur after A:FINALE. Sharon Carter checks in on Cap, who notes that "it's just been a rough couple of months" - probably

references to A 500-503 and A:FINALE. Steve has a new place to live, shielded by a hologram. He is under surveillance by a

minion of the Red Skull, who now holds the Cosmic Cube. The Skull is shot dead by an assassin working for General Lukin,

who wants the Cube for himself.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #8 - FB (12:3)

Probably the same day as CA5 1. It is the "week" before CA5 8. Appearing "about three years older than he was in '76," the

Skull's assassin, the "Winter Soldier," is captured on film at Dulles Airport, where he leaves the murder weapon.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #7 - FB (18-19)

One night. It may be not be "three months" after CA5 7-FB (17); Nomad may believe it's been three months, but he's

hallucinating. Nomad beats up innocent men he imagines are members of a drug ring.

Saturday, January 17

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #2

The early morning after CA5 1. SHIELD summons Cap to do a DNA test to identify the corpse of the Red Skull, whose body

was cloned from Cap. Cap and Sharon uncover a Skull plot to blow up New York and stop it. Fury discovers that a missing

Cosmic Cube is involved in the Skull's murder. Learning that his boss is dead, Crossbones orders the AIM splinter group called

AID to continue the Skull's plan for mass destruction.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #3 (1-19)

The same day as CA5 2. Union Jack discovers the London AID cell, including its leader, Mother Night, slaughtered and the

bomb they were to detonate missing. SHIELD tracks another bomb to Paris, where Cap battles an AIM squad who has reclaimed

the bomb after it was presumably abandoned by the Paris AID cell. Steve and Sharon spend the evening in Paris, where we see

green trees.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #7 (20:1-20:2)

The same night as CA5 3 (1-19). It is the night of the day after CA5 7-FB (18-19). It may not be "three months" after CA5 7-FB

(18). It is "nine months" after CA5 7-FB (11-14), "ten months" after CA5 7-FB (8), and "one year" after CA5 7-FB (2-7). Jack

Monroe sits in a bar outside Pittsburgh.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #3 (20:1-20:3)

The same night as CA5 7 (20:1-20:2). A TV in the bar shows a news report of Cap's battle with AIM in Paris "earlier today."

Jack notes that he worked with Cap. Green trees in Pennsylvania.

The same night as CA5 3 (20:1-20:3). Jack sits silently and feels strange.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #3 (20:6-21:5)

The same night as CA5 7 (20:5). As Jack exits the bar, the bartender notes that Jack has been drinking there "for about a year

now." Outside the bar, a stranger (Lukin's assassin) approaches Jack and shoots him. Jack falls behind a car. Green and bare

trees in Pennsylvania.

TOMB OF DRACULA v4 #1 (17:2-17:3)

One day. Lucas Telling-Stone hunts down the Jumlin.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #4

Probably the day after CA5 3 (21:6-21:7). Fury (who is SHIELD head) sends Cap to Arlington National Cemetery, where

someone has destroyed the grave markers of William Naslund and Jeff Mace. There he encounters Crossbones, who says the a

Russian sent him. When strange memory flashes distract Cap in battle, Crossbones leaves. Meanwhile, SHIELD discovers the

rifle used to kill the Red Skull and detects Jack Monroe's prints on it. Using an old homing device planted on Monroe, Sharon

Carter tracks Nomad to Philadelphia and is subdued. Tony Stark is BTS. Bare and green trees and green grass in Virginia.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #5

The same night as CA5 4. Cap goes to Nick Fury aboard the Helicarrier to get some answers. Fury makes a connection to

Aleksander Lukin, a protege of Vasily Karpov. Cap relates a story about his WWII encounter with Karpov then asks for

transport to a place where he might match reality with his confusing memories. Fury refers to Cap being on ice "nearly twenty

years ago."

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #6 (1)

The same night as CA5 5. Carter's assailant reports in to General Lukin.

Monday, January 19: Martin Luther King Day

JUBILEE #3 (4-13)

The day after JUB 3 (1-3). On a school day that must be Monday, Dale tells Jubilee and Meg about a fund-raising dance he's

hosting and says that he and Missy broke up again. Later that day, Jubilee counsels Charlie, who wishes he could stay out of the

gang but feels he has no options. That night, she returns a phone call from Logan, but he's too busy to talk; he's fighting ninjas

(perhaps a failed attempt by the Hand to kidnap Logan prior to their success in W3 20).

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #6 (2-21)

The day after CA5 6 (1). It is the "week" before CA5 9-FB (4-6) and CA5 9. It is "not a month" (i.e. less than a month) before

CA5 12. SHIELD agent Neal Tapper expresses concern to Fury about Sharon, who "hasn't reported in for over twenty-four

hours." Cap explores an abandoned Nazi castle in the English Channel and experiences more confusing memories. Mysteriously

sensing Sharon to be in danger, he jets to Philadelphia, where he frees Sharon in a set-up. Sharon tells Cap that she suspects her

assailant and the Skull's killer to be Bucky. The mystery assassin detonates a bomb nearby, which fully charges the cosmic cube

in Lukin's possession.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #8 - FB (4-9)

The same night as CA5 6 (2-21). Cap and Sharon try to save lives in the aftermath of the explosion. Cap encounters AIM

soldiers trying to retrieve their technology from the ruins and faces their Modoc Squad.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #8 - FB (13-16)

The same night as CA5 8-FB (4-9). Cap battles the Modoc Squad and is assisted by someone he makes out to be Bucky before

the mystery man disappears.

Tuesday, January 20

JUBILEE #3 (14-17)

The day after JUB 3 (4-13). It must be more than just "two days" after JUB 2 (15-22). After school on a day that must be

Tuesday, Shane tries to intimidate Jubilee into stopping counseling Charlie. That night, Jubilee checks in on a convalescing

Aunt Hope.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #8

The day after CA5 8-FB (13-16). It is a "week" after CA5 8-FB (12:3). Aboard the Helicarrier, Fury tells Sharon of Tapper's

death and briefs Cap on the Winter Soldier, a KGB secret weapon who has spent decades in suspended animation except for

times he'd be needed as an assassin. Fury believes him to be Bucky. Identifying Lukin as the prime suspect behind the bombing,

Fury assigns Cap and Sharon to a strike force to take him down.

SABRETOOTH v2 #1

One day, "several weeks" after Sabretooth's last appearance, which I interpret as being X 164, with Creed having survived

Logan's attack. This story may occur after AF3 12. The Coast Guard ice cutter Polar Sun receives a distress call from the

isolated Isle Dupree - a woman claims a monster is loose on the island, and is killed while on the radio. The cutter heads for the

island, where Sabretooth stands over the woman's body. He writes "Leave or Die" on the outside of the house, and stalks off.

When the Coast Guard arrive, they find massacred men everywhere, and follow some chimney smoke to a cabin where two boys

are locked in the basement. Hamilton, the landing party leader, descends to help the boys and the rest of the men are attacked and

killed by Sabretooth. Back at the dock, Sasquatch arrives to offer assistance. We see snow around Lake Superior. It is "winter,"

"January 20th."

SABRETOOTH v2 #2

The same day as SABRE2 1. Sasquatch orders the Coast Guard men to stay aboard their ship and begins searching the island.

He is attacked by Sabretooth and, as they battle, Sasquatch falls into a pit set up by Sabretooth. Meanwhile, the Coast Guard get

fed up waiting, and another landing party goes to retrieve the first. This landing party is quickly dispatched by a looming,

shadowy creature, and later, back at the cabin, a shadowy creature approaches the front door. We see a blizzard on Lake

Superior.

SABRETOOTH v2 #3 (1-15)

The same day as SABRE2 2. Hamilton machine-guns the creature at the front door, who is revealed to be a badly injured

Sasquatch. Smitty, the only survivor of the second landing party, makes his way back to the ship as Sabretooth watches and

grins. Back at the ship, the remaining Coast Guard men are attacked and massacred, and Smitty hears the battle from the dock. As

Sabretooth surveys the carnage and leaves the ship, he finds Smitty's corpse in the snow; he shot himself.

FOUR #13 (12-14)

One night, "three days" after Alicia's bandage from her second operation is removed. Ben tries to call Alicia. Alicia's body

rejects the second pair of transplanted eyes and the surgeon tells Philip that more resilient eyes are needed. Full moon.

Wednesday, January 21

JUBILEE #3 (18-22)

The morning after JUB 3 (14-17). On a school day that must be Wednesday, Shane again confronts Jubilee again, who tells him

about Charlie's good grades and desire to go to college. At school, Dale reschedules the dance for the following week, and that

night, Shane lets Charlie out of his gang, but not before revealing his mutant powers.

SABRETOOTH v2 #3 (16-20)

The morning after SABRE2 3 (1-15). As Hamilton stitches Sasquatch's wounds, Sasquatch explains that he's alone and has

been tracking Sabretooth for several weeks. Hamilton believes that Sabretooth is hunting the men of Isle Dupree, but Sasquatch

reveals that Sabretooth is only after one creature, the Wendigo.

SABRETOOTH v2 #4

The same day as SABRE2 3 (16-20). Wendigo attacks the cabin, and Sasquatch (whose "enhanced metabolism" has healed most

of his wounds) attacks him, driving them both out into the storm. Sabretooth shows up at the cabin and explains that he's been

hunting and terrorizing the Wendigo for weeks, driving him far from his natural habitat. It's the Wendigo who's been attacking

and killing the islanders and the Coast Guard out of instinct and self-preservation. Sasquatch makes an impassioned plea to

Wendigo to let him help get him home, but Wendigo mauls Sasquatch savagely. As Wendigo sees a second ship approaching

across the lake, Sabretooth finds and attacks him and the two plunge off a cliff and through the ice. They sink through the

freezing water, still fighting. Later, back at the cabin, Sabretooth shows up and tells Hamilton that it's all over and walks off

wearing a crude coat made of the Wendigo's skin. Full moon.

FOUR #13 (15-17)

Probably the day after FOUR 13 (12-14). It is later in the month of FOUR 13 (6-11). Reed, Ben, and Johnny leave on an

expedition to another dimension while Sue stays home to take "Franklin to soccer practice" among other things, but Sue is

kidding. Daredevil finds a corpse in the Hudson whose eyes have been cut out.

Thursday, January 22

NEW X-MEN: ACADEMY X #12

One day, shortly after NX 11 and shortly before NX 13. This story probably occurs before W3 21 (14-23). The New Mutants

score a win in a field day mission that resembles a mission from David's dream in NX 10-11. David avoids Noriko for the "third

time this week." When Josh kisses Laurie on the cheek, Kevin tells Emma about Josh's tryst with Rahne. The news causes Dani

to be enraged at Rahne and she has a talk with Josh. Shamed, Rahne leaves the Institute. Brokenhearted, Laurie drives Josh

away with her fear pheromones and rebels against her mother. Emma and Scott ask Sean Garrison to be the Institute's guidance

counselor and he agrees to join, not "this semester," but "at the start of the new school year." Green grass and trees at

Westchester.

FOUR #13 (18-22)

The day after FOUR 13 (15-17). It is a day in which Franklin has homework to do. Possessed by the Puppet Master, Sue leaves

her kids at the Baxter Building and heads to Masters' place while Alicia undergoes a third operation. The narration mentions

that "a hunter's moon" is out.

FOUR #14 (1-21:3)

The same night as FOUR 13 (18-22). It is "a month" after FOUR 14-FB (2:3-2:4). Alicia finds Sue and, deducing her father's

scheme, tries to save Sue, who explains that Puppet Master has been driven insane by years of exposure to his radioactive clay.

Alicia defeats her father by fashioning a doll of him and crushing its hands; the doctor notes that "it will take months" for

Masters to regain the use of his hands, so this segment must occur "months" before FOES 1. Daredevil cameos. The full moon

shown here is probably the one after that shown in FOUR 14-FB (2:1-2:2).

Friday, January 23

FOUR #14 (21:4-22)

The day after FOUR 14 (1-21). The Thing checks up on Alicia, whose latest eyes will give out soon.

SHE-HULK v4 #13 - FB (16:4-17:1)

One day, shortly after S-H4 13-FB (16:2-16:3). This flashback probably occurs before S-H4 6-FB (1:1). Seductra subdues

Starfox with a potion and takes him to the Thanos dupe, who carries out Thanos' plan to give Eros and himself false memories of

Eros influencing Thanos' decision to revere Death. Starfox is back in his classic costume.

Saturday, January 24

UNCANNY X-MEN #457 (17-22)

One day, "days" after UX 457 (1-16). The Hauk'ka release Kurt and Bishop to hunt them for sport. They encounter Psylocke

and X-23, who introduce them to their new allies, Ka-Zar and the Savage Land Mutates.

UNCANNY X-MEN #458

The same day as UX 457 (17-22). As Ka-Zar and the Mutates battle the Hauk'ka, Psylocke uses her teke knife to restore

Bishop's and Nightcrawler's powers. The X-Men retreat. The mutating Rachel uses her power on Storm to trigger some nasty

weather.

UNCANNY X-MEN #459

The same day as UX 458. Storm causes global hyperstorms that cause blizzards everywhere, including the Xavier Institute,

where the Astonishing team, Havok (still with his cowl), and Iceman monitor the situation. Brainchild offers to help stop Storm

and tricks the heroes into letting him take control before X-23 decks him. Storm and Rachel themselves synch up to stop the

hyperstorms. The Hauk'ka realize their mistake and make peace with the X-Men and the people of the Savage Land. The X-

Men may remain in the Savage Land for some time after this.

Sunday, January 25

NEW WARRIORS v3 #3 - FB (16:1)

One day. As shown in a newspaper, Zachary Smith's experiments only work for himself; his unspoilable yogurt went bad as

soon as it left his presence and proves deadly in an independent study. Taylor stock plummets.

THUNDERBOLTS #101 - FB (3:3-4, 5:6-6, 9-10:2, 13, 16, 19:4-19:5)

One day (in real time). These flashbacks occur after A/TB 6 (23), shortly before TB2 1, and "several months" before TB 101.

Zemo invites Melissa from ESU to a Manhattan apartment that exists outside of time, created by the alien gems Zemo took from

Moonstone. They spend time in this timeless place and Zemo appears to earn Melissa's trust and love. She notes that Abe

invited her to join a team of Thunderbolts he's re-forming and that she declined, but Zemo urges her to accept when he asks

again. Green trees in New York.

Monday, January 26

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #9 - FB (8-9)

One night. Fury tells Steve he can't get clearance for the op against Lukin and that the authorities consider Jack Monroe to be

the prime suspect in the Red Skull's murder and the Philly bombing. Fury proposes an unofficial attack on Lukin's corporate

nation in Asia "in two days." Steve requests that Sharon not be assigned to the mission because of Tapper's death. We see coats

and jackets in New York.

Tuesday, January 27

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #9 - FB (4-6)

The day after CA5 9-FB (8-9). CA5 6 (2-21) is referred to as having occurred "last week." Sharon argues with Steve about

going on the mission "tomorrow" and about Bucky being the Winter Soldier. Green trees and light clothing in New York.

JUBILEE #4 (1-5)

One day, "a couple of days" before JUB 4 (20-22). Aunt Hope confirms that Jubilee can attend the dance.

Wednesday, January 28

JUBILEE #4 (6-19)

It must be the day after JUB 4 (1-5). It must be more than just "a few weeks" after RUN 17. At school, Missy catches Dale

flirting with another girl. Jubilee learns that Miss Kingsley's car has been stolen, and asks Shane for help tracking it down. The

two get into a gang shootout and reveal their mutant powers to each other, but have no luck returning the car. Meanwhile, Aunt

Hope and Brad wreak vengeance on a mysterious criminal organization. Later, Hope decides to look into the missing car.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #9

The night of the day after CA5 9-FB (4-6). CA5 6 (2-21) is referred to as having occurred "last week." It is "two weeks" before

CA5 15. Crossbones breaks into a secret government re-education facility and liberates a brainwashed prisoner - Synthia

Schmidt, daughter of the Red Skull. Meanwhile, Cap, Sharon, Nick, and a special ops team launch their attack on Lukin's Asian

nation (where it is daytime). The team encounters Lukin dealing with U.S. government officials and when the team cannot

justify their attack with concrete evidence about Lukin's schemes, the mission is scrubbed. Cap is furious.

Thursday, January 29

JUBILEE #4 (20-22)

The day after JUB 4 (6-19). It is "a couple of days" after JUB 4 (1-5). Jubilee arrives at school to see the car returned, and when

she bursts into Miss Kingsley's office to tell her, she finds her kissing the principal. Meanwhile, Aunt Hope and Brad suit up for

an all-out assault.

JUBILEE #5

The same day as JUB 4 (20-22). Jubilee trades her silence about Principal Avery's and Miss Kingsley's fling for her release from

the peer counselor program. Shane asks her to the dance that night and she accepts, but when the time comes, they both decide

that the dance is lame, and go hang out on their own. At the dance (which I interpret as a year-end prom), Dale, single again,

asks Meg to dance. Meanwhile, Aunt Hope and Brad carve a bloody swath through a mysterious criminal organization. That

night, Jubilee brings Shane back to Aunt Hope's mansion, and just as they're about to kiss, the doorbell rings; it's Wolverine.

The Christmas decorations at the mall must be topical.

JUBILEE #6 (1-16)

The same day as JUB 5. Jubilee introduces Shane and Logan tells him to keep his hands to himself. As Shane goes to leave,

Brad bursts through the door and Jubilee demands an explanation. He tells her Hope was an assassin who was retiring, that she

got tricked into a one more job "last week," and that they'd gone to tell her boss that she was out for good. He explains how they

split up a hail of gunfire breaks the windows. Wolverine attacks a horde of henchmen in suits and bulletproof vests. Hope

crashes through a wall on a motorbike, bringing more goons with her. Hope tells Jubilee that Jubilee's parents had disowned

Hope over her career choice, and that's why they never told Jubilee about her. Brad is shot. Hope flirts with Wolverine as they

both fight goons, then she gets scratched by a bullet. The shooter offers Hope the chance to stand down and come back. Hope

agrees to negotiate only after the others are safely away. Logan, Jubilee, Brad, and Shane leave. Wolverine tells Jubilee and

Shane to get Brad to a hospital, then he doubles back to try to get Hope, but the house blows up. Waning crescent moon.

Friday, January 30

JUBILEE #6 (17-22)

The day after JUB 6 (1-16). A school day. Probably after midnight, Jubilee cries amid the wreckage and at Brad's hospital

bedside, where a policeman tells her they've found no sign of Hope. "The next morning," Jubilee and Logan leave Shane, Meg,

and Dale and return to the Institute. A jogger discovers Aunt Hope behind some bushes with her right lower leg mostly blown

off and sparks coming from the exposed mechanics.

WOLVERINE v3 #20 (2:3-2:4)

One day, "weeks" after W3 20 (1-2). This segment must occur after NX 10. Ichiro sits on a bench in the park, in grief that no

one seems to be able to help him recover his son. Not knowing to whom to turn to, he calls up Logan.

Saturday, January 31

WOLVERINE v3 #20 (3-12)

One day shortly after W3 20 (2:3-2:4). It is "one week" before W3 20 (13-14). Wolverine is in Nagasaki, carrying two duffle

bags which are supposed to be filled with the money the kidnappers want. He meets the kidnappers in a graveyard, and gives

them the duffle bags, which the kidnappers discover is not filled with money after all. Wolverine starts to kick their butt, but

then un-dead ninjas pop out of the ground, and Logan figures out this is a trap, and he's been set up. The Gorgon appears and

defeats Wolverine. As Logan blacks out, the Gorgon says they killed the boy. Logan is taken away to be brainwashed. Green

trees in Nagasaki.

Sunday, February 1

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #11

One day. A packet arrives at Steve Rogers' secret residence and Steve views its contents - evidence showing that the Winter

Soldier is Bucky. Steve calls Fury and tells him to come over with Sharon.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #12

The same day as CA5 11. It is "not a month" (i.e. less than a month) after CA5 6 (2-21). Falcon now has a mustache and goatee,

which he may be growing and shaving periodically throughout the next year. At the New York offices of Kronas Corporation,

Lukin uses the Cosmic Cube to persuade a group of corporate executives to hand over their companies to him. When Lukin

begins to show stress from being in contact with the Cube, his friend Leon notes the danger of the Cube and Lukin beats him.

Fury and Sharon visit Steve and review the Winter Soldier files. Fury takes the files and Sharon tries to tell Cap that the Winter

Soldier is no longer Bucky and that he may have to be killed. When Sharon fails to reach him, Fury contacts the Falcon, who

encounters Cap while out on patrol. Green trees in New York.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #13 (1-4)

The same night as CA5 12. Falcon talks to Cap at Steve's secret home and Cap decides to try to save Bucky. Seeing the severity

of Leon's injuries, Lukin sees the Cube as a curse and sends it away with the Winter Soldier.

Monday, February 2

NEW WARRIORS v3 #3 - FB (16:2-16:3)

One day. As noted in a newspaper, Zachary Smith's son, Microbe, is found to be mutant who can talk to germs. Smith disowns

his son and moves to Scotland to prove world wrong.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #13 (5-20)

The day after CA5 13 (1-4). Early in the morning, Cap, Falcon, and Iron Man storm an AID warehouse, battle a prototype robot,

and obtain the energy signature of the Cube. With it, they track the Cube to a research facility in West Virginia where Lukin is

having it stored in a vault. Citing a failed takeover of his company by Kronas "last month," Tony cannot go with Cap and Falcon

for fear of the mission being seen as corporate warfare and losing his company; so the fact that Cap and Sam jet to West Virginia

in a jet labeled "Stark" seems ill-advised (duh). Sam thinks it's a bad move not to have Iron Man as backup; no mention is made

of the other Avengers. Cap decides against getting Fury to help because of the attendant red tape. While on route, Cap is

radioed by Sharon and Cap tells her he's going to Cube's location to find the Winter Soldier. Cap and Falcon land and as they

approach the research facility, the Winter Soldier gets them in the sight of his rifle and fires. Green trees in New York and West

Virginia.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #14

The same night as CA5 13 (5-20). This story must occur before W3 38 and thus before W3 36. It must also occur before

PULSE 12, given D-Man's comment about the Winter Soldier in PULSE 13. It is before CA5 18-FB and "six months" before

CA5 16 (5-22). It is a "year" before CA5 26. The Winter Soldier misses his target and Cap chases him inside the facility while Falcon and the newly arrived Sharon Carter and SHIELD fight Lukin's forces outside. Cap and the Winter Soldier fight and Cap tries to get his foe to realize who he really is. In the scuffle, the Cosmic Cube is loosed and it returns the Winter Soldier's memories as Bucky. Bucky grabs the Cube and disappears. He reappears at the defunct Fort Lehigh, where he despairs his fate. Lukin is chided for the failure with the Cube by the Red Skull, who's been co-habitating Lukin's body, thanks to the Cube. Bare trees at Fort Lehigh.

Tuesday, February 3

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #1

One "morning." This segment occurs shortly after TB 101-FB, "two days" before TB2 2, "a couple weeks" before TB2 9-FB,

and must be more than "two months" after A/TB 6 (17-20). The Avengers are noted as being "disassembled" (presumably

meaning disbanded), so this story must occur after A:FINALE. Mach-4 has gathered Blizzard and mechanic Erik Josten and

invites Songbird to join his new Thunderbolts, for whom he's set up a headquarters at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. They all

respond to an attack on Manhattan by Fathom 5 and are joined by Genis-Vell. Sensing an attraction between Genis and Melissa,

Josten views Genis as a threat and attacks the alien hero, spontaneously growing to Atlas size. The villains get away and Abe

reports to the team's investor, Baron Von Strucker. Green grass and trees in New York.

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #18 - FB

The same day as TB2 1. As Genis lay dying in the Hudson River, a cocoon of photonic energy envelops him, opening pathways

through space and time, knitting Genis back with parts of himself from the past and future. Genis has a vision of himself tearing

reality apart.

Wednesday, February 4

WOLVERINE v3 #20 (13-14)

One day, "one week" after W3 20 (3-12), during which time Logan is missing. It is "one month" before W3 20 (15-17). Kitty

Pryde is at Ichiro's house, questioning Ichiro and his wife. No one has heard from Logan since he went to meet with the

kidnappers. Ichiro's wife says she feels in her heart that her son is dead. Green trees in Japan.

Thursday, February 5

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #2 (1-9)

One day, "two days" after TB2 1 and "months" after TB2 17-FB (16:3). The T-Bolts battle and defeat the Wrecking Crew and

Speed Demon shows up to join the team. The Purple Man plots against the T-Bolts.

ORDER v2 #2 - FB - FB (1/2:20)

One day. Becky Ryan has a bulimic episode.

Friday, February 6

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #2 (10-22)

Probably the day after TB2 2 (1-9). This storyline must occur after W2 20 (13-14). Reed Richards appears; a reporter notes his

being "the leader of the beleaguered Fantastic Four," and a U.N. delegate notes his "recent escapades in Latveria," clues that this

segment occurs after FF 511. Seeking justice for the terrorism of Fathom Five, the T-Bolts crash Namor's address to the U.N.

(whose building is noted as having been rebuilt after the Kang War). Seeking Namor as part of the Great Game, Joystick,

Polestar, and Tremolo attack, under observation of the Referee. When the Gaming Council activates a two-minute warning for a

failsafe explosive, the heroes try to jam the transmission and offer Joystick a spot in the T-Bolts. Their efforts fail, though, and

the U.N. building explodes. Namor is in his classic trunks.

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #3

The same day as TB2 2 (10-22). This story must occur sometime after PPTSS2 20, given that Spidey suggests that his webbing

is natural ("I'm probably gonna need a truckload of Twinkies to replenish my web-supply now"). Subby may appear here (now

recovered) after INV3 9. The T-Bolts, along with Subby, Reed Richards, Spidey, and Code Blue, evacuate the UN Building and

keep it from collapsing. Radioactive Man arrives to absorb the radiation leak from the explosion and is offered membership in

the T-Bolts. Meanwhile, Atlantean troops battle Fathom Five and the new Swordsman skewers Baron Von Strucker.

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #4

The same day as TB2 3. Strucker is saved by the death spore virus in him. Wolverine, brainwashed by the Dawn of the White

Light, shows up and attacks Strucker. Caught in the Hydra civil war, Swordsman defends Strucker, who gets away. Swordsman

leaves Logan and reports to the Purple Man (who must be here between ALIAS 28 and A4 1). None of this fight actually comes

to public attention, and SHIELD manages to miss the whole thing. Songbird recovers in the hospital and Captain Marvel appears

in a glowing cocoon in the Atlantic. As Jenkins meets with Warbird (back in classic costume again) to ask for clearance for

Joystick and Speed Demon, Fathom Five attacks. It is warm enough in New York for dining al fresco.

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #5

The same night as TB2 4. The Thunderbolts gather to battle Fathom Five, with Jenkins having to don his old Beetle armor to

participate. As the battle rages, a fleet of Hydra ships appears in the skies over Manhattan.

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #6

The same night as TB2 5. It is "a few days" before TB2 7. This story probably occurs before W3 20 (15-17). Strucker, noting

that he is "in a contentious struggle to control my organization," seeks to foment chaos with the Hydra attack on Manhattan,

which costs hundreds of lives. The New Warriors, Power Pack, Spidey, and Cap join the battle as Warbird and the Thunderbolts

save the city from destruction by all but one of a set of nuclear bombs planted by Hydra. Genis presumably rises from the dead,

starts calling himself Photon, and redirects the fallout from the last bomb into a spatial rift. The Thunderbolts learn that Mach IV

was taking money from Strucker to finance the team, which turns out to be a set-up and Speed Demon is revealed as Strucker's

spy on the team, but among the public, the new Thunderbolts are hailed as heroes. "It's Wednesday."

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #9 - FB - FB

The same night as TB2 6. Under the sea, the Atlantean army escorts the captured Llyron.

Saturday, February 7

WOLVERINE v3 #22 - FB

One day, before W3 20 (15-17) and probably after TB2 6. Defeated by the Thunderbolts, Strucker must have acquiesced to the

Gorgon's insinuation into Hydra and the civil war is ended. Gorgon and Strucker brainwash Logan, probably to reprogram him

to follow mainstream Hydra rather than just the splinter faction that was allied with Gorgon.

Sunday, February 8

NEW INVADERS #4

One day. Namor is still in his classic trunks. After terrorists attack a gay pride rally in London that is attended by Roger Aubrey,

Hammond, Tara, Jacqueline, and Joe join Roger at Falsworth Manor. That night, what appears to be the ghost of her dead son

visits Jacqueline and she disappears.

NEW INVADERS #6 - FB

Probably the same day as INV3 4. U.S., British, and Atlantean troops wage war on insurgents and Pterorists in Mazikhadar.

NEW INVADERS #5

The same night as INV3 4. Jacqueline encounters her demonic baby grandson while the Invaders fight off Baroness Blood and

her vampiric minions. The Torch asks Aubrey to resume command of the V-Battalion on a temporary basis while he remains

with the Invaders.

Monday, February 9

NEW INVADERS #6

The day after INV3 6-FB. It is "months" after INV3 0. This story must occur shortly after W3 22-FB; the Invaders have heard

rumors of Logan being brainwashed, but apparently have not been notified officially by SHIELD. Baron Von Strucker

dispatches Wolverine to kill Professor Eckhardt so that the secrets of the Pterorists do not fall into enemy hands. Logan kills

Atlantean advisor Sulumor and attacks U.S.Agent, Namor (now in his black and gold costume), and Blazing Skull, who have just

arrested Eckhardt. Walker ignores an order from Thin Man to leave Namor at the mercy of Logan and the Invaders succeed in

evacuating the scene with both Namor and Eckhardt. Hydra scrubs Logan's mission.

ORDER v2 #2 - FB (22:1)

One day. Becky Ryan makes an adult video.

Tuesday, February 10

NEW INVADERS #7

The day after INV3 6. The Invaders have reunited aboard the Infiltrator and have been trying to track Wolverine since

"yesterday." Namor is bandaged up and "will be on his feet in a few days." Jim Hammond takes over the Invaders. Thin Man

tries to extract information about the Axis Mundi from Agent Axis, who Professor Eckhardt was forced to resurrect. Captain

America arrives on the Infiltrator to shut down Thin Man's operation.

NEW INVADERS #8

The same day as INV3 7. In Antarctica, Merrano's men prepare a warhead to melt the ice caps and cause global flooding. Cap

and the Invaders arrive and battle them. Union Jack is injured and Tara is revealed to be a plant whose programmed mission is to

SHE-HULK v4 #4 - FB (2-8)

One day during an 8-month period following either A:FINALE or A 503 and during the "February" before (but probably not the

year before) S-H4 4. S-H3 2 (1-13) is referred to as having occurred "last year." A guilt-ridden Jennifer Walters works as a

volunteer with the Green Cross, helping rebuild Bone, Idaho after the destruction she caused there as She-Hulk in A3 73-75. She

calls Doc Samson for counsel. Doc is working on a "gamma changer" that should help Jen change back into She-Hulk despite

the mental blocks she developed in S-H3 12 (20-22). He tells her to go to a support group for the victims in Bone, held "every

Wednesday night." Jennifer goes to the support group meeting and hears victims' stories, including one by a woman named

Kristy, who claims her husband is missing and presumed buried in the rubble. Bare trees in Idaho.

Thursday, February 12

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #7

Joystick crashes the Today Show (an indication that it is probably a weekday). Sanders brings Gill to a bar where they meet

Herman Schultz, who offers Sanders an opportunity to get in on a five-million-dollar score. Genis can't remember anything

about his death. The Chinese government asks Chen Lu to stay with the Thunderbolts. Killgrave prepares the new Swordsman

to join the Thunderbolts and Songbird quits.

SHE-HULK v4 #4 - FB (9-20)

The day after S-H4 4-FB (2-8). It is "months" after A3 75. Haunted by nightmares of guilt, Jennifer goes outside before dawn

and joins Green Cross head Gary Swanson in digging rubble in Bone. That morning, crews discover the body of Kristy's

husband Travis. Feeling responsible for the man's death, Jennifer goes to the sheriff's office to hand herself in, but Wanda's

spell of concealment from S-H3 2 (1-13) prevents the people there from seeing her. She discovers some shady business

involving Travis and does some investigating. That night, she enters the pit in which Travis was found, then someone uses a

backhoe to dump rubble onto her. Jen partially turns into She-Hulk to hold up the rubble and dwells on all the damage she's

done "this past year" to Bone, the Avengers, and GLK&H. She is saved and shows Gary proof that Kristy murdered her

husband. After Gary tells Jen he harbors guilt for events that led to the Hulk's creation, Jen successfully changes into She-Hulk

so that the citizens of Bone can see her come clean and apologize. We see bare trees, snow flurries, and visible breath in Idaho.

Full moon.

up in Tijuana.

CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #15 (12-22)

Perhaps the day after CA5 15 (1-11). Crossbones tortures Synthia, trying to get her to throw off SHIELD's reprogramming and

become a worthy heir to the Red Skull. That night, the de-programmed Synthia escapes her cell and joins Brock in his bed.

Speed Demon joins Shocker in his heist of $5 million in laundered Nazi money from a Long Island mansion. (The reference to

the Nazi money being around "for sixty years" must be topical.) Blizzard tries to stop Sanders from committing the criminal act,

but the speedster defeats him. Later, Sanders sics the police on Shocker and steals the money from him, handing it over to Abe

for use in financing the Thunderbolts. Namor (in his black and gold costume) shows up at Thunderbolts HQ and demands that

Radioactive Man stop a "plague" he unleashed in Atlantis.

NEW THUNDERBOLTS #9 - FB

The same night as TB2 8 (7-21). It is "a couple weeks" after TB2 1. The Thunderbolts discover that Radioactive Man irradiated

Llyron's gills, causing radioactivity to be transmitted throughout Atlantis. Mach-4, Atlas, and Blizzard accompany Radioactive

Man and Namor back to Atlantis so that Chen Lu can absorb the stray radiation. Unbeknownst to his teammates, Chen Lu

infuses Tamara Rahn with a radiation designed to kill Fathom Five in "several weeks." Monica Rambeau confronts Genis about

adopting the name Photon and she ends up changing her codename to Pulsar. Full moon.

Ray, because his mind was unstable. The session comes to an end as Ashta arrives close enough in their solar system for the

Korbinites to launch an attack..

One day, probably days after SSBRB 2 (7-13). As Bill sits around overwhelmed by all of the tragedy that has happened to his

people and to the Asgardians, Skuttlebutt's censors detect that the Meta-Orb is in trouble. Stardust has arrived and is holding the

Meta-Orb hostage. Bill flies out and the two prepare to do battle.

STORMBREAKER: THE SAGA OF BETA RAY BILL #3

The same day as SSBRB 2 (20-22). It is "several months" after SSBRB 3-FB (11). Bill rescues the Meta-Orb from the hands of

Stardust and sends it and Skuttlebutt deeper into space while he stays behind to face Stardust. They duel and Bill blows Stardust

to pieces. Stardust reforms himself and realizes he can't beat Beta Ray fair and square, so using a mystical spell, he unlocks a

doorway to a cosmic hell into which Bill barely keeps himself from being sucked. A black tentacle reaches out from the hell and

wraps around Bill, but he breaks the tentacle off. Stardust starts to panic and closes the door, but he's not fast enough - the black

tentacle mutates, transforming into a female devil-creature who calls herself Asteroth.

STORMBREAKER: THE SAGA OF BETA RAY BILL #4

The same day as SSBRB 3. Bill and Stardust are knocked unconscious by emergence of Asteroth. She declares that she's a

being of pure chaos and intends to devour the order of the universe and she flies off. She arrives at a nearby planet and starts to

incinerate it, feeding on the destruction. Stardust and Bill wake up, and Stardust convinces Bill they need to put aside their

fighting and destroy Asteroth. They fly off together and attack Asteroth, but she's already too powerful. Stardust casts another

dimensional spell, this time opening up a black hole, hoping to suck Asteroth in, but she turns it around on them and Stardust

and Bill start to get sucked in. Meanwhile, Galactus picks up Alpha Ray and fills the robot with the Power Cosmic, saying he

needs Alpha Ray to perform one final task.

STORMBREAKER: THE SAGA OF BETA RAY BILL #5 (3-9)

The same day as SSBRB 4. Stardust and Bill are being sucked into the black hole. They try to drag in Asteroth as well, but she

seems immune to the pull of the black hole. Draining energy from Bill and Stardust, Asteroth stumbles on the Meta-Orb, which

is tucked inside Bill's belt. All seems lost when Alpha Ray arrives, slamming into Asteroth and dragging her into the black hole.

Asteroth, Stardust, and Alpha Ray are sucked in, but Alpha Ray's slamming knocks Bill backwards out of the event horizon, and

the black hole closes before it can suck Bill in. Bill fades into unconsciousness.

Saturday, February 28

STORMBREAKER: THE SAGA OF BETA RAY BILL #5 (10-23)

One day. Bill wakes up in a strange white place beyond time and space. A strange voice explains that Bill is in another

dimension outside of time and space, a dimension ruled by cosmic beings who locked away Asteroth and others in the cosmic

hell. They've transported Bill to their dimension to thank him for stopping Asteroth. Bill sees that Skuttlebutt is here too. The

cosmic beings tell Bill they will transport him wherever he wishes to go, and he decides he wants to go back to Asgard to check

to see if the Asgardians won the final battle of Ragnarok. So Bill gets onboard Skuttlebutt, and they leave this dimension behind.

Appearing back in real time and space, they find they're on a course for Asgard. Bill pauses to mourn the Korbinites some more.

Skuttlebutt reports that there is strange energy emitting from the Meta-Orb. This energy starts growing out of control, and Bill

grabs the Meta-Orb and busts out of the ship. The Meta-Orb emits an explosion of energy, and Bill and the Meta-Orb fall to the

ground below, which turns out to be Asgard in ruins. Bill stumbles upon Surtur's corpse. He walks back over to the Meta-Orb

and is shocked as it cracks open and a demonic version of Beta Ray Bill pops out. This creature reveals itself to be a mixture of

Asteroth and the Korbinites and calls itself Omega Ray. Before Asteroth was sucked into the black hole, she put a small portion

of her essense in the Meta-Orb. She's been feasting upon the souls in the Meta-Orb since then, and now has broken out in this

new body. Enraged, Bill immediately starts hammering away, calling upon all of the remaining power of Odin left in Asgard to

strike down this foe.

STORMBREAKER: THE SAGA OF BETA RAY BILL #6 - FB (16/17:2-20)

The same day as SSBRB 5 (10-23). Bill barely destroys Omega Ray, but all of the energy Bill unleashed leaves Bill dying as

well. He notices the Meta-Orb still pulses with life and realizes that not all of the souls inside were devoured by Omega Ray. He

crawls over to try to release the souls inside, but loses consciousness. He wakes up to what appears to be a glowing white female

figure standing overhead that says she will take good care of the remaining souls inside the Meta-Orb. She touches Bill, who

breathes his last breath.

STORMBREAKER: THE SAGA OF BETA RAY BILL #6

The same day as SSBRB 6-FB (16/17-20). A homeless man, Simon Walters, lies dead in the gutter on a New York street corner.

Lightning bursts, rain falls, and Walters comes back to life. He gets up and walks out onto the street, nearly getting hit by a

speeding car. The car swerves and crashes, and out of it jumps a hoodlum, who says he's fleeing Spider-Man. This hoodlum

transforms himself into a super-villain, the Boar, and he smashes up the street, then beats up Walters. Simon hits his hand on the

ground, magically transforms into Beta Ray Bill, and starts pounding on the Boar. Spider-Man arrives and the two team up and

defeat the Boar. They then go out for pizza. A short time later, Simon/Bill tells Spidey about the plight of the Korbinites, and he

thinks back to the last thing he remembers. Spider-Man tells Bill he's gotten a new lease on life, and Bill says he plans on

making the most of it. The two heroes go their separate ways.

couple of days" before W3 20 (14-17). In Minneapolis, Nick Fury, Elektra, and SHIELD agents are at a Catholic church, the

apparent scene of a brutal occult ritual murder. Elektra confirms this is the work of the Hand. Fury says he's smoked out a plot

to take down "sixteen key figures in the superhuman community" and Wolverine was at the top of the list. Elektra says she'll

work for Fury again, taking the case since it involves the Hand. Just then, a SHIELD agent comes up to Fury and says that

Wolverine has just been found in South America. It's snowing hard in Minneapolis, where we see bare trees.

Wednesday, March 4

WOLVERINE v3 #20 (18-24)

The day ("12 hours") after W3 20 (15-17). It is "three or four years" after W/NF:SR. Elektra steps off a helicopter onto a

SHIELD aircraft carrier in the South Pacific, which is where they're keeping Wolverine. A soldier informs Elektra they found

Logan in Argentina, with "no hair, one eye, and ninety percent burns." They tell Elektra Logan's now in their sick bay,

unconscious and healing. As Elektra heads to sick bay, Logan wakes up. A voice in his head tells him to kill the nurse attending

him. He at first resists, but quickly submits, killing the nurse and putting on his costume. Suddenly, all the power goes out on

the security systems in the carrier. In the dark of the hallways of the carrier, Elektra is confronted by Wolverine.

WOLVERINE v3 #21 (1-13)

The same day as W3 20 (18-24). It is probably not "five weeks" before W3 23 (1-15) and perhaps three weeks rather than "three

months" before W3 28. Wolverine and Elektra do battle, with SHIELD agents getting caught in the middle and getting sliced up

by Wolverine. Elektra starts to get the upper hand on Wolverine, but just then, an explosion from a bomb planted by Logan rips

through the carrier, which starts to sink. Water floods into the carrier, separating Wolverine and Elektra and killing several

SHIELD agents. Wolverine escapes out the hole in the carrier and swims away. Elektra and the surviving SHIELD agents

evacuate the carrier. Elektra says this was a trap, and that they need to check and see if Wolverine tapped into the SHIELD

carrier's system mainframe. Logan downloaded "Defense codes, Pentagon files, White House security details." Elektra says,

"I'm afraid you didn't find Wolverine gentlemen. Wolverine found you."

confronted by the Uni-Power, which appears as a glowing orb. The Uni-Power explains to Vargas that its powers are

malfunctioning for some reason and offers to bond with him if Vargas will help investigate the cause of the malfunctioning.

Vargas agrees to go on this quest with the Uni-Power, and the Uni-Power says that before it can restore the use of Vargas' legs, it

has to go bond with some of Earth's mightiest heroes, to replicate their powers. The Uni-Power states that it shall try to replicate

the powers of the Hulk first. Green trees in New York.

WOLVERINE v3 #21 (14-17)

The day ("24 hours") after W3 21 (1-13). This segment occurs "a couple of days" after W3 20 (15-17), must occur after UX 460

(1-14), and probably after NX 12. In Manhattan, Nick Fury is in conference with Elektra and top SHIELD agents aboard the

Helicarrier. Fury says that trying to locate Wolverine telepathically doesn't work as the Hand has supernatural shields in place.

Fury says they've uncovered what the Hand, Hydra, and
