(Note: I don't agree with the logic regarding FF 285- our placement is just fine.)Secret Wars II #5 pg 22
The Beyonder listens to a Dazzler record and gets depressed. Boom Boom phones the Avengers and warns them that the Beyonder threatened to destroy the universe.
Thing #30
The Beyonder begins drinking, becomes a wrestler, and begs the Thing to kill him.
Dr. Strange #74
The Beyonder seeks out Dr. Strange for enlightenment, and is told to foster good in the world.
Fantastic Four #285
Taking Dr. Strange's advice, The Beyonder helps Johnny Storm deal with the death of an imitator.
Assumption
While all that was going on, the Avengers begin notifying the other heroes that the Beyonder threatened to destroy the Universe. See the Commentary sections of Dr. Strange #74 and Fantastic Four #285 for reasons why those tie-in issues must take place before this battle.
Secret Wars II #5 pg 23
At the request of the Avengers, Boom Boom lures an upbeat Beyonder to the campsite they had established, where the heroes that the Avengers have assembled attack.
Secret Wars II #6
Despite having just been attacked by the heroes (including Dr. Strange), the Beyonder continues to heed Dr. Strange's advice and sets up a corporation to help him do good in the world.
