Immortal X-Men #16, X-Force #45 and X-Men #27 are all, conveniently, an unspecified but not gigantic amount of time after the previous issue of each. X-Force is sometime after the current Uncanny Avengers storyline; X-Men is sometime after the recent Fantastic Four #4 (and presumably before #12); Im...

We finally have a little glitch in Fall of X continuity! This week's Invincible Iron Man #10 picks up from X-Men #26 (they actually overlap by a few pages), and gets to Tony Stark's wedding to "Hazel Kendal." And in Ms. Marvel: The New Mutant #2, which starts the morning after the previous...

I've just now read GotG 10, and when Rocket mentions "that new S.W.O.R.D. station" he also says that Knull is "on Earth" and "He's got the whole planet sealed off", so surely this issue is right in the middle of the actual KiB event? The problem is that something has t...

The second issues of Dark X-Men, Uncanny Avengers and Alpha Flight all continue from their respective first issues. Wolverine #37 is sometime after the beginning of the current Incredible Hulk series--I'm guessing after the current storyline, actually. (At a quick glance, Predator Vs. Wolverine #1 d...

A surprisingly light week, X-continuity-wise. X-Men Red #15 picks up an unspecified but probably short amount of time after #14. Likewise with Astonishing Iceman #2, X-Force #44 and Children of the Vault #2 for their respective series, although big enough things are happening in CotV that I imagine ...

Emma Frost is vague enough about what she did in X-Men 25 that it can be interpreted as "I have messed with people's memories in the specific ways that will be most beneficial to you." The whole Wolverine/Ghost Rider: Weapons of Vengeance sequence (the Alpha and Omega issues, Ghost Rider 1...

We've backed up from the "X weeks later" period in this week's titles: X-Force #43 and Jean Grey #1 both take place during the Hellfire Gala (the latter is mostly taken up with a what-if scenario), Realm of X leads directly out of a scene in the middle of the Gala (with Curse, Dani Moonsta...

The perils of reading digitally: I totally missed that there was a second story in Dark X-Men 1! Thanks once again The kind of help Peter offers in DWEB:F (which seems to be "let me see what I can do about your imprisonment") isn't quite the kind Ben is complaining about not getting in DX2...

Another massive week for X-books! Iron Man Annual 1 is the second part of "Contest of Chaos," and is definitely pre-Gala '23 (though after the beginning of the current Invincible Iron Man series), which suggests that so is the rest of that sequence. X-Men Unlimited Infinity Comic 100 start...

The main body of Immortal X-Men #14 is, as expected, "X weeks" after the Gala. There's also an extended flashback to the day after the Gala. It's real good. Children of the Vault #1 starts with a 3-page scene that goes from immediately after the Gala to the next evening, then goes to "...

On reflection (thank you again, Michael!), that second story in the ASM Annual could better go around the time of X6 22, when Nimrod, Stasis et al. are testing out the drug exploit: "How many more of these are we gonna do?" "This will be the final test if it goes like the others."...

Michael - good point, thank you! This week: a lot. The present-day scenes of X-Men 25 and Astonishing Iceman 1 both take place "X weeks" after the Hellfire Gala. X6 25 (1 - 3) -FB is shortly after the first scene of Marauders (2019) 1--Kate's got a broken nose. X6 25 (22) -FB is after Forg...

Well THAT was sure a week in X-comics. The 2023 Hellfire Gala is interwoven with Invincible Iron Man 8 and the Free Comic Book Day 2023 special that's Uncanny Avengers on its cover and Avengers/X-Men in its indicia. Here's how it all appears to work: X:HG2023 (1) -FB --"X weeks ago," befor...

On looking at Legion of X 7 again, the first three pages are immediately after Kurt has grown horns, so that scene will have to be before Infinity Comic 80-85 and Marauders 11-12. New Mutants: Lethal Legion 5 finishes up that miniseries. No specific placement needs beyond "sometime after New Mu...

This week's Immortal X-Men #13 has some... significant stuff going on. It's all before this year's Hellfire Gala, and the first two pages appear to be taking place during the final scene of #12. X-Force #42 concludes the time-travel storyline, and nothing really seems to contradict my assumption tha...
