Avengers Initiative Special, at least the main story, must happen between A:I 19 and 20. Hardball is a trusted team member in #19, he is exposed as a Hydra agent in the Special and defects to them, and in #20 Gauntlet prepares to send a squad after him.
An editorial note places A:I Featuring Reptil between #19 and #20.
So far so good. But for the only common character Komodo you have:-
Komodo II/Melati
....
A:I 19
A:IFRPTL
A:I SPEC
A:I 20
....
I believe this is the wrong way round. I offer 2 pieces of evidence in A:IFRPTL.
Komodo is angry and talks about betrayed trust, which I believe refers to her lover Hardball in the Special.
A SHIELD Agent refers to a recent problem with a 'walking pile of electricity', and the Initiative dealt with Zzzax for them in A:I SPEC.
So:-
Komodo II/Melati
....
A:I 19
A:I SPEC
A:IFRPTL moved from before A:I SPEC
A:I 20
....
A:I Special/Reptil order
