Beast's chronology

Post by Hotcharokey 2.0 »

The Beast's chronology when he is replaced by the Dark Beast appears to be incorrect. It shows X-Men #50 occurring before X-Men Unlimited #10:

BROOD 2
X 50
XU 10
X 51-BTS

The chronologies for Professor X, Cyclops, and Iceman, however, all have X-Men Unlimited #10 occurring before X-Men #50:

BROOD 2
XU 10
X 50
UX 331

The chronologies for Professor X, Cyclops, and Iceman appear to be correct. Iceman is injured by Post in X-Men #50 and healed in Uncanny X-Men #331. Iceman does not have any injuries in X-Men Unlimited #10, so X-Men Unlimited #10 has to occur either before X-Men #50 or after Uncanny X-Men #331. X-Men Unlimited #10 cannot occur after Uncanny X-Men #331 because the Dark Beast has already replaced Beast in Uncanny X-Men #331. Since X-Men Unlimited #10 occurred before X-Men #50, it was the Dark Beast who appeared X-Men #50, not the Beast.

The correct chronology for the Beast is:

BROOD 2
XU 10
X 51-BTS

The correct chronology for the Dark Beast is:

X 49
XU 10
X 50 - added here

In addition, the Beast is missing an appearance. After Onslaught appears to kill most of the heroes of the Marvel Universe, the Black Widow tries to recruit the Beast, Angel, and Iceman to join the Avengers in a flashback in Avengers '99 Annual.

The flashback is included in the Angel's chronology:

X 55
A '99-FB
UX 337

The flashback is also included in Iceman's chronology:

O:MU-FB
A '99-FB
UX 337

The flashback, however, is missing from the Beast's chronology:

FF 416
UX 337
X 57

The flashback needs to be added to the Beast's chronology before Uncanny X-Men #337:

FF 416
A '99-FB - added here
UX 337
X 57
