Should be Wolverine v3 #35 (4-25)

Another one but less easy to solve.

Year 21
October 2
XS 6 (1-8)
October 5
XS 6 (9-15)
October 6
XS 6 (16-22)
XS 7 (1-8)
October 7
XS 7 (9-22)
XS 8 (1-6)
October 8
XS 8 (7-11)
October 9
XS 8 (12-22)
October 10
XS 9 (1-15)
October 11
XS 9 (16-22)
October 12
XS 10

They are repeated here:
October 28
XS 6 (1-8)
November 1
XS 6 (9-15)
November 2
XS 6 (16-22)
XS 7 (1-8)
November 3
XS 7 (9-22)
XS 8 (1-6)
November 4
XS 8 (7-11)
November 5
XS 8 (12-22)
November 6
XS 9 (1-15)
November 7
XS 9 (16-22)
November 9
XS 10

If XS 10 is exactly one year after XS 10-FB (21), the first set of dates is correct.

Year 23
April 7
X-MEN UNLIMITED v2 #9 (1-7)
April 28
X-MEN UNLIMITED v2 #9 (8-11)

I think it should be XU2 10 or XU2 10/2.

Wolverine v3 #53
I think the flashback is in pages 19 and 20, not 18 and 19.

Year 24
May 18
I have Rahne here before W3 53 (20-22).
-> W3 53 (21-22)

May 19
WOLVERINE v3 #53 (6-17)
This story occurs "decades" after W3 53-FB (18-19) and "two days" before W3 53 (20-22).
->
WOLVERINE v3 #53 (6-18)
This story occurs "decades" after W3 53-FB (19-20) and "two days" before W3 53 (21-22).

May 21
WOLVERINE v3 #53 (20-22)
One day, "two days" after W3 53 (6-17).
WOLVERINE v3 #54
The same day as W3 53 (20-22).
->
WOLVERINE v3 #53 (21-22).

Ork, about that repeat of X-STATIX entries -- it's a total mystery! The first set of dates is, indeed, correct. The second set of entries doesn't appear in either my working document or the HTML file I sent to Russ. I have no idea where those entries came from! :?

But it's the only flashback in W3 26, so I don't note the page range as a matter of protocol.

Also, I'm not sure why you've repeated your points about the misnumbered issues of X-MEN UNLIMITED.

It's because I've seen it twice and didn't remember having already said it.

I don't understand why X 151 (22) ~ X 154 (22) "must occur after Emma's appearance in UX 442".
The last French issue of Marvel Deluxe X-Men places UX 442-443 between X 156 and X 157 and it seems to work fine.

Still investigating...

Year 24
February 15
CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #25 (4-5:2)
March 13
CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #25 (5-15:4)

I suppose you meant to start at 5:3.

I cannot see one month between panels 2 and 3. I would have made only one entry:
March 13
CAPTAIN AMERICA v5 #25 (4-15:4)

Year 23
November 4
ANNIHILATION: SILVER SURFER #3 (1-13)

It's "Annihilation Day, Plus 20" not 21. That's November 3.

ANNIHILATION: SILVER SURFER #3 (14-23)

It's "Annihilation Day, Plus 21" not 22.

ANNIHILATION: SILVER SURFER #4 (1-20)

I count 19 pages, not 20.

November 13
ANNIHILATION: SILVER SURFER #4 (21-24)

If my count is right, it should be (20-23).

Year 24
February 3
ANNIHILATION #1 (1-12)

I count 17 pages here. ANNIHILATION #1 (1-17)

February 4
ANNIHILATION #1 (13-31)

And 32 pages total. ANNIHILATION #1 (18-32)

I found some problems with the "Annihilation days".
For example, October 30 is Annihilation Day+11 and +12, and November 13 is AD+40 and +41.
Is it on purpose?

Check out my entry for Annihilation: Prologue on October 23 of Year 23:
"Because NOVA4 1 occurs roughly 'six months' after this segment, all those references cannot be Earth days, but rather "Annihilation days" that I estimate are half as long as Earth days."

Does this change any of the corrections you suggested?

I don't have the Annihilation comics, so can't see how I messed up page counts. I may have misinterpreted a posted analysis. If you're sure on those page counts, I can change 'em. Thanks!

Thanks for noticing the lack of ":3." I believe time does pass between Cap's surrender and his murder, during which he's incarcerated. Thus the gap between 5:2 and 5:3. And I believe BP3 26 (7-8) and BLADE8 9 occur during that period, as well as CW:FL 11 (6-12).
