Avengers vs Atlas Hulk appearance

Post by LordZorn »

Guys:

Am I correct in assuming the Avengers who appear in Avengers vs Agents of Atlas are time-displaced from shortly after meeting Kang for the first time in A 8(and, therefore, the Hulk appears here shortly after TTA 61 or so)??? TIA

I have the early Avengers in Avengers vs. Atlas right after A:EMH 4 (19-22), which follows A 8 (21:7).

That's where the timeline diverges, yes. But of course, the early Avengers die in issue 4.

...but due to Dr. Strange's spell, an alternate timeline (and Avengers) continued things onward, right??? Forgive my request for a memory-refresher, but it's been a while since I've read the old stories.

The Avengers from the past are from an alternate timeline. The divergence occurs when the Avengers from the past are pulled forward to the future. "Our" past Avengers don't appear in the series.

For instance, the divergent Giant-Man that appears in this series becomes Kang, and all the past Avengers die when they sacrifice themselves for the greater good in issue 4. "Our" Avengers obviously didn't die shortly after Avengers #8, as they continued to make appearances in Avengers #9 and onwards, and "our" Giant-Man never became Kang, so these Avengers aren't "our" Avengers.

Col. Fury:

So, are you saying that unless there's a notation, the only Earth-616 characters from this series that should/will be listed in the Project are the Agents of Atlas/other non-Avengers??? TIA for the clarification

All "Earth-616" characters will be listed. He's saying that the time-travel-Avengers *aren't* the Earth-616 versions.
