Top Ten #8

TOP TEN #8 (Jun 2000) By Alan Moore APPEARANCES: Captain Albion, Captain England NOTE: There’s no need to summarize this, since it’s a non-Marvel story. However, it’s set in Neopolis, a place that advertises interdimensional travel. In one panel, Captains Albion and England have a cameo appearance....

Re: USA Comics #5-8

So, if someone were to go through and break down appearances for text stories from otherwise already analyzed issues, would that be welcome? And just use /TEXT rather than a number? :wink: While a lot of them are one-offs, some of the text stories include characters that show up again elsewhere (e.g...

Re: USA Comics #5-8

The recent Index for Captain America (which covered all the Golden Age Cap books; anyone interested should check it out!) counted the various Secret Stamp pages as one block of stories, instead of individual stories for each page. I have a feeling the MCP will follow suit for the Otto pages, the Da...

Re: USA Comics #5-8

Spider McStrangle

Re: USA Comics #5-8

I already broke down the Victory Boys story in Comedy Comics #10: http://www.chronologyproject.com/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?p=52757#p52757. The boys (except for Victor) were given full names in the Marvel Atlas, so that's how I listed them there. Notice also that it's not the 6th story in #10, but rathe...

Re: American Ace, Castile D'Or, and Attainia

Ah, I guess that makes sense. I thought the ~ symbol was used to indicate simultaneity in-universe, not from an out-of-universe publishing perspective.

Re: Crash Comic Adventures/Crash Comics/Crash Comics Adventures

The more I think about it, the more I think Hitler deserves a BTS appearance listed in his chronology for issue #5. Where in his chronology should it go?

Re: Mystic Comics #1-4

My understanding is that text stories have always been considered extras like activity pages or letters pages, etc. They're bonuses, not "stories" if you get the difference (yes, they're stories, but you know what I mean. I hope). The MCP hasn't included any text stories that I'm aware of...

James Bond

James Bond is confirmed as a 616 character. He doesn't have an MCP chronology despite a couple Marvel appearances, so I thought I'd put one together for him. I'm not sure if Marvel's adaptations of For Your Eyes Only and Octopussy should be considered 616. I'm not aware of any references to those st...

Re: Mystic Comics #1-4

I've wondered about that, too. Leaving them out of the numbering is misleading, especially when many of them feature 616 appearances of characters like Cap, Namor, etc.

Re: Red Raven Comics #1

Magar the Mystic has an Egyptian background of some kind, and hasn’t been active on Earth for a long time. I see the MCP already has King Solomon listed for this story, and I’m seeing mention of Thomas Edison appearing here also. And a scan shows me that Napoleon also appears. Magar the Mystic is “...

Re: Daring Mystery Comics #5-8

I'm loving all these golden age stories being added! :D Trojak and Tigerman are distinct characters. They both have their own handbook entries. I assume the "Balu" reference was just an error. No chronology for Stuporman? He actually has three other appearances I'm aware of: Snap vol. 1 #2...
