Marvel Chronology Project

I'll try to start plodding through this in a methodical fashion. It may take a while. First up, A+X. This is an anthology series and we don't need to assume that the issues happen in chronological order if that doesn't work. A+X #16 occurs in the past. Spidey's here with Psylocke, Cyclops, Gambit, W...

Haven't touched this yet. Pinpointing all the differences and determining whether one or the other must be right or either could be possible is a daunting task.

Frans, would you be able to chop this up into small bits and point out where my chronology can't be right? Danke!

Good point. So where to place the break between days? Perhaps between UX2 11 (1-4) and W&X 9 (14-20)?

Thunderbolts #163-167, 169-170, 172-174 involve time travel and aren't useful for building a chronological spine. Thunderbolts #168 probably occurs the week before issue #171. A gap of three weeks exists between pages 18 and 19 of TB 171. TB 171 ends sometime before Dark Avengers #175. Incredible Hu...

Avengers Solo #1-4 occur over five days. Because Hawkeye wears his old costume here, this arc must occur before CA6 6, A4 19, and AAC 22. Fantastic Four #605 is a one-day standalone story. Same thing with Fantastic Four #606. FF #17 is a 2-day story. Johnny's been living with Peter Parker for three ...

On to Cap... Captain America v6 #1-5 occur over two days, weeks before CA6 6. We may have to go with publication order for placement of this arc. Captain America v6 #6-10 occur over two days. Publication order puts this arc after CA6 10. The fact that Hydra Queen has to negotiate with Madame Hydra a...

I just covered Avengers Academy #21, so on to #23-28.

Avengers Academy #23-28 is one arc likely occurring over three days. Issue #22 is referred to as having occurred the other day. This arc probably occurs before Secret Avengers #21.1, Avenging Spidey #4, and Avengers #19, given Hawkeye's costume.

Continuing Spidey... Issues #688-691 of Amazing occur over a two-day period, likely starting the day after the aforementioned Avenging Spider-Man #8. It's weeks after ASM 675. Overall publication order places this arc before ASM@ 39. The arc must occur before Iron Man #1, since M.J.'s nightclub appe...

OK, Amazing Spider-Man (first installment)... Issues #674-675 occur over one day, probably before Punisher #5. Issue #676 is a one-day standalone that occurs "a few months" before FF 22 and must occur after Vengeance #3. Vengeance #1-6 occur over two days off on their own during this perio...

Great, Col_Fury! One thing I noticed quickly...

I propose changing
CA 606-611
to
CA 606-611 / CACORPS 1-5

Mis-coloring aside, I couldn't tell from the way the costume was depicted, and I couldn't even tell if I was looking at a female or a male with impressive pecs.

Who's the person getting blasted with Cage in the spread on on pages 2-3?

Based on what we see the next issue, Abyss and Ex Nihilo could be considered off-panel in that last scene.

I see that this link was posted in the Fear Itself thread, but didn't click on it before because I figured it dealt with Fear Itself...itself, not the period prior. I totally forgot this thread from two years ago and didn't reconcile my notes with the chronologies outlined there. There's lot of mate...

X-Men: Legacy #238-241 occur over two days. I suspect those issues occur before UX 526/2. X-Men: Legacy #242-243 occur during one day. X-Men: Legacy #244 is a one-day standalone story. Then X-Men: Legacy #247-FB occurs, seven days before X:L 247. Then comes the Age of X Saga, including X-Men: Legacy...
