WOSM@ 5/6

The MCP currently lists a sixth story in Web of Spider-Man Annual #5 featuring the Squadron Supreme characters.

My copy of WOSM@ 5 doesn't have six stories; it only has five. And the table of contents for the issue only lists five stories. And various resources I use say there's only five stories in this thing.

What comic is this supposed to be?

I think those are typos; it should read WOSM@ 5 in all cases.

Ah, that's why I missed it.

They all appear in WOSM@ 5/5 (the history of the Serpent Crown story), in flashback.

This isn't just a matter of turning all the WOSM@ 5/6 into WOSM@ 5/5, because Uatu (who is currently the only character listed as appearing in WOSM@ 5/5) is the only character who's not in flashback here. Also, what's regular Hugh Jones doing in the Squadron Supreme world? Looks like I'll have to read this thing.

Thanks!

Hold on.

Paul has misstated, I believe.

My copy of WOSM@ 5 is boxed up, but comparing the MCP to comics.org, my first thought is that I counted "Spider-Man's Dubious Accessories" as a story. If that stands, then these would be WOSM@ 5/6, and Uatu needs to be moved from WOSM@ 5/5 to WOSM@ 5/6. If that feature doesn't count as a story, then they should be changed to WOSM@ 5/5, not WOSM@ 5.

Hugh Jones is contacting Nelson Rockefeller on the Squadron's Earth- remember, they were working together in A 141-144.

Thanks!

The recent Index series didn't count features (like Spider-Man's Dubious Accessories) as stories, so the one we're talking about (history of the Serpent Crown(s) as narrated by the Watcher) would be the fifth story.

The "now" portion is the Watcher talking to us (the readers).

The main flashback is the Earth-616 Hugh Jones contacting the Eath-712 Serpent Cartel (Gregory Hungerford Gideon, Justin Hammer, Leland Owlsley, Kyle Richmond, Sebastian Shaw, Obadiah Stane & Cornelius van Lunt) and is a prelude to A 141.

The first flashback-within-a-flashback is a recap of CA 180-181.

The second flashback-within-a-flashback is what's currently represented in the MCP, and leads into the main flashback. In addition to the characters already listed for WOSM@ 5/6 (with the exception of Hugh Jones), the Earth-712 Serpent Council (all seven) and US President Nelson Rockefeller appear.

The second flashback is a recap of A 141-149.

Also, it's mentioned that the Eath-712 Hugh Jones was murdered by his girlfriend.

These are the changes to be made, I think:
