Thanks a bunch, Paul!
INHUMAN #1 – FB (7:1-7:2)
One night, probably shortly before Inh 1 (5-19). Black Bolt sits on the throne of Attilan with Medusa by his side as the city floats in the air.
INHUMANITY #1 – FB (8/9:6-10:6)
One day, shortly before Infinity. Gorgon subjects his nine-year-old son, Petras Petragon, to the Terrigen Mist, which turns the boy into a grotesque beast-headed creature.
AVENGERS v5 #18 – FB (2-3)
One day, “two days” before A5 18 (1). Aboard the Skrull warship Sorrow, Super-Skrull receives word of the fall of the Skrull outpost on Hy’lt Minor and tells his generals that he intends to attend a war council on a world called Nomad.
INFINITY #1 (5-19)
One day. This story occurs after A5 17 (6-20) and the “week” after A5 16. Since Iron Man has his new armor, this story must occur after IM5 16 (13-20). This segment must occur after FF4 16 (21-30) and probably occurs shortly after Inhn 1-FB (7:1-7:2). Thanos must appear here after T:IR 1. After defeating the champion of Ahl-Agullo, Augollux the Brave, Corvus Glaive exacts tribute from Augollux’s father, King Luxor, and delivers it to Thanos, who sends Outrider to Earth to find something hidden and exact more tribute. Unseen, Outrider infiltrates Avengers Tower (where we see Thor, Iron Man, and Cap in new costume), the Jean Grey School (where we see Logan, Kitty, and Storm with her Mohawk), and a SHIELD Helicarrier. Captain Universe appears on Galador as Spaceknights Starshine, Firefall, Ikon, Terminator, and Pulsar try in vain to defend their world against an invasion by the Builders that results in destruction that signals the beginning of the end.
INFINITY #1 – FB
The same day as Inf 1 (5-19). Kree soldiers send a distress signal as the Builders attack a Kree deep space outpost.
INFINITY #1 (20:1-40:3)
The same day as Inf 1-FB. This segment occurs before TB2 14. Abigail Brand calls Hawkeye, Cap, Thor, and Hyperion in for a mission against Skrull infiltrators in Palermo, the seventh incident involving aliens “in the last two weeks.” The heroes defeat the Skrulls, oddly none of whom are warriors, and Brand recalls the heroes when Captain Universe appears at the Peak. Cap arrives at the Peak with Iron Man (in space armor) and Ex Nihilo, who detects that Captain Universe is regenerating. Brand shows the Avengers the Kree distress signal, and Ex Nihilo recognizes the assailants as the Builders. Brand theorizes that the Builders are coming to Earth. In Attilan, citizens observe that Black Bolt has drawn distant from his wives, prompting feelings of bad times to come. The Outrider enters Black Bolt’s mind as he sleeps and learns about the Illuminati and their possession of the Infinity Gems. Black Bolt awakens and forces Outrider to flee. The Avengers gather aboard the Peak, where they learn that all worlds of the Galactic Council are mobilizing against the intergalactic threat. Abyss confirms that Earth would be destroyed if the Builders were to reach it. All the Avengers prepare to leave to take the fight to the Builders while Iron Man stays behind to enact contingency plans and marshal the world’s defenses in case his teammates are unsuccessful.
INFINITY: HEIST #1 (1-9)
The same day as Inf 1 (20-40). Blizzard and Whirlwind spy on the Avengers as they take off from Avengers Tower.

Thanos has Proxima Midnight fetch her daughter Kaldera and give her the assignment to kill Nova. After helping workers in Carefree, Arizona, Nova freaks when someone calls him Sam. In flight, Sam absentmindedly removes his helmet, causing him to lose his power. Sam plummets to Earth and dons the helmet before hitting the ground. Sam awakens and discovers he was found by Robbie Baldwin and Vance Astrovik, who tell Sam of the Nova who was their teammate. Kaldera shows up at Sam’s home.

In that city, Heroes for Hire Luke Cage, White Tiger, and Power Man fight the Plunderer and his men, who are trying to pilfer a shipment of Spiderbot parts. Spidey Ock shows up, defeats Plunderer, and disses Cage and his team for being mercenaries before departing with the captured Parnival. White Tiger sees Spidey Ock’s point and quits, prompting Power Man to trash talk Spidey as he eats with Cage in a diner. Thinking of the world that Danielle (who’s now walking) will inherit, Cage wonders if he can do more meaningful jobs with his business. Believing that Cage really wants to be Avenger again, Power Man “fires” Cage and resolves to continue Heroes for Hire himself. Monica Rambeau, in the new costumed identity of Spectrum, defeats Blue Streak and encounters a hero who wants to keep his presence a secret. Proxima Midnight heads for Earth.

They return to their sub, where Ross tells the group that for every mission they complete for him, the group will help another member with a mission of his or her own. The group decides on the mission by picking from a hat, and Castle’s agenda is chosen. Punisher enlists the aid of the Thunderbolts to depose the Paguro crime family. In New York, the head Paguro declines to assist three members of the Nobili family and order other waiting supplicants to beat them. Castle has Rulk and Leader stay back while he, Elektra, Venom, and Deadpool prepare to infiltrate the Paguros, unaware that Thanos’ Horde is approaching Earth. Green grass and trees. Full moon.

Stark tells Reed he has an idea. In Attilan, Maximus finishes the device he’s been preparing for Black Bolt, a portal that can take Black Bolt to a dimension in which he can speak without destructive results. Medusa interrupts the brothers and demands to know what secrets Black Bolt has been keeping. When he reveals the secret, Medusa slaps him. In Necropolis, Namor proposes an arrangement with Black Swan but is interrupted by T’Challa, who takes him aside and tells him Wakanda is attacking Atlantis and that he needs to go there and help his people.

Thanos tells her that her “fun time” is over and that she must embark on her Atlantean mission. Proxima retrieves her spear, says that Monica will soon die, and takes off.

Tentacles grow out of innocent people’s mouth and attack the heroes, who join forces to destroy Shuma-Gorath’s shield. White Tiger summons the Tiger God to assault Shuma-Gorath and Monica enters the demon’s eye in light form and explodes it from the inside.
