Marvel Chronology Project

Good call on the slightly earlier placement of Realm of X folks returning--for both Mary and Illyana, it's suggested that they've been around for a little while when they do show up. Also thank you for pointing out that Storm probably got to Earth via Lactuca! Why she'd be hanging out with Craig whi...

This week: Wolverine #47 (continuing that 10-part sequence), Ms. Marvel: Mutant Menace #2 (right after #1, sometime before all the Fall of the House stuff starts happening), and Invincible Iron Man #17 and Resurrection of Magneto #4, which connect at the end and clarify a lot of things about the cur...

The final scene of this week's X-Men #33 continues the final scene of Fall of the House of X #3, with Cyclops and Nimrod--actually, both issues end with images of Sentinel City ascending. The rest of the issue takes place after Doctor Stasis has been "neutralized," e.g. after FotHoX 3 (1-1...

In Spider-Woman 5 Captain Marvel is called back by Vision on an ongoing Avengers matter related to Kang. I assume she is referring to the time when Kang was in Avengers custody between Avengers 2 and Avengers 10, with the group fighting the threats he predicted. Since Carol is wearing the new costu...

X-Men: Forever #1 is out this week. (I posted about the potential problems with coming up with a code for it a while back: XFVR is the 2001 series, but that was followed by X-Men Forever (2009) and X-Men Forever 2 (2010). This one's got a colon in its indicia's title, though, so just for the sake of...

I think Midnighter's solution makes a lot of sense--in general, I lean toward solutions that make everything fall into place relatively easily. If Krakoan Derangement Syndrome (which has made a handful of people violent) is different from the dormant kill-switch (which simply kills people, potential...

This week's Fall of the House of X #3 seems to take place in very quick succession with #2 and X-Men #32, going by the scenes with Cyclops and Alia Gregor. Wolverine #45 keeps rolling with the Sabretooth War sequence. Dead X-Men #3 is gonna be fun to index, since it consecutively hits scenes from Mo...

It's not clear that Logan IS living in the Morlock tunnels. If we're assuming that X-Men 30 takes place before the Latverian mission, then the Latverian mission leads into X-Men 31, which takes place during House of X. There's no room for the Ms. Marvel series to take place. I don't know about that...

X-Men #32 takes place pretty quickly, and appears to be very shortly after Fall of the House of X #2. (It also seems to be fairly soon after Magik has returned from Realm of X, but she could've been lying low for a while.) Ms. Marvel: Mutant Menace #1 is at the beginning of Kamala's school year (aft...

I'm not sure we know yet what period of time Fall of the House of X encompasses! (Though it does seem like everything falls together pretty quickly, thus far.) Fun continuity bit of the week is Resurrection of Magneto #2, which begins with a flashback that starts by overlapping with pg. 23 of Giant-...

Rise of the Powers of X #2 dares to ask the question: how does one go about making a chronology for an entity that exists outside of time? The "what you would call 'now'" in the opening scene is when Cyclops is still in his cell, so before the end of FotHoX 2. Pages 12-17 appear to be simu...

Fall of the House of X #2 continues the complications. Nimrod, who was immobilized last issue by Krakoa's previously unseen amber-spitting powers (uh...), doesn't free himself until the very end of the issue. So the fight with Nimrod in X-Men #31 (at the end of which Synch tells Shadowkat to tell Po...

Or they traveled, a good long while. I think they stowed away on commercial flights, that could take some time :D The problem is that Kamala is present when Synch and Talon decide to go to Counter-Earth, and also present when Synch returns ("days" later) without Talon--and, on returning f...

This week's X-Men #31 includes a panel that attempts to patch up the inconsistency between #28/29 and #30, which... only really works if you squint REALLY hard and assume that events happen out of published order and with some unannounced gaps. It goes a little something like this: X6 28 (14): Jugge...

Wolverine #42 follows immediately from #41; X-Men Unlimited Infinity Comic #124 follows on from #123; and Dead X-Men #1 is... apparently a bit later than what we've seen in Immortal and probably FotHoX and RotPoX so far (although it DOES include a scene to which there was a flash-forward in Immortal...
