Several X-Men Discrepancies

[Hotcharokey 2.0]

Professor X's chronology shows him appearing in UX 322-BTS before XM 5, but Bishop's chronology shows him appearing in XM 5 before UX 322.

The chronologies for Beast, Gambit, Rogue and Iceman have them appearing in X 38 before M/HOL 1994, but the chronology for Bishop has him appearing in M/HOL 1994-BTS before X 38.

Psylocke's chronology shows her appearing in X '95/2-FB before UX 325, but Angel's chronology shows him appearing in UX 325 before X '95/2-FB.

The chronologies for Storm and Iceman have them appearing in GAM4 10-FB before X 25, but the chronologies for Beast and Gambit have them appearing in X 25 before GAM4 10-FB.

The chronologies for Cyclops and Jean Grey have them appearing in X 70 before JIM 513, but the chronology for Beast shows him appearing in JIM 513 before X 70.

Why do you do this to me three days before the Index TPB goes to print?

EDIT: I guess it beats three days *afterward*...

Whose chronologies are right? Whose are wrong?

-Jeph!

hmmm what has to do the TPB with the MCP? are they taking in consideration the MCP?

[JephYork]

Yes, one of the sources that the Index used when creating the character chronologies was the MCP's findings. And in some cases, MCP mistakes made their way into the Index.

I'd like to take those mistakes *out* before the TPB goes to press, as this is effectively our last chance to get the X-Men chronologies right in print.

So: whose chronologies are right above? Whose are wrong?

-Jeph!

Some of us write for the Index.

For X-Man #5/UXM #322, I'm keeping X-Man #5 beforehand -- call it a personal preference. (I still have a wacky theory that I can shift X-Man #10 back before UX #322, to explain the whole "Onslaught learns to manifest physically -> Onslaught slugs Juggernaut" problem.)

For X #38/MHol '94, I'm going to just say "majority rules" and move Bishop.

For JIM #513/X #70, I can say right off the bat the Beast is incorrect -- in JIM #513, Cyclops is just fine, whereas up until X #70, he was injured and had a nanotech bomb implanted inside him.

But I'm stuck on the other two. Any thoughts, anyone? I'm so frazzled right now that I have no real way to confirm which of these chronologies is incorrect.

[JephYork]

I moved X '95/2 fb back before UX #325 -- for Angel, it now occurs right after his app in the main story of X '95.

I moved the Gambit flashback after X #25 for everyone. It's now right before A #368.
