That's not too problematic, Rogue is diagnosed cured in X 20. Either she made a try without glasses in IC before X 20, either we put IC in between (14:3) and (14:4) of X 20, before Scott leaves for Alaska (but Rogue still wears glasses in X 21), either we put IC in between X 24 and 25, when Scott has come back. I'm for the second option.

That doesn't work- Scott has a conversation with Xavier in UX 299 and he tells him that Moira is leaving Genosha- Moira leaves Genosha in XF 90- those issues have to take place simultaneously.
This one is trickier. If we keep UX 299 after IC, when should IC happen for X-Factor ? For Crystal, XF 88/2-89/2 is before IC, and it's mentioned by Quicksilver and Val Cooper in XF 90 (13). Quicksilver comes to Genosha in XF 91. But in IC 1, the Goddess picks Quicksilver alone, and X-Factor not at the same time. So what if we put IC in between XF 90 (14) and (15) ? Moira says she leaves for Paris in XF 90 (19), that would be just after IC 6, just as UX 299 is just after IC 6 for Cyclops.

Sleepwalker's listing is full of surprises :

SLEEP 18
SLEEP 18 ~ IW 5
SLEEP 18
DRSTR3 46
SLEEPHS
SLEEPHS /2
SLEEP 25/2
IC 1
T 464
IC 2
IC 3
IC 4
WOSM 106
IC 4
IC 5
IC 5 ~ WOSM 106
IC 5
IC 6
SLEEP 30
SLEEP 19
SLEEP 20
SLEEP 21
SLEEP 22
SLEEP 23
SLEEP 24
SECDEF 4
SECDEF 5
SLEEP 25
SLEEP 26
SLEEP 27
SLEEP 28
SLEEP 29
SLEEP 31

At first, SLEEP 25/2 is before IC for Sleepwalker but after IC for Rick Sheridan. That looks curious but not impossible, could someone check that ? What's more problematic is that SECDEF 4-5 is before IC for Dr. Strange, and SLEEP 26-27 is before IC for the Avengers, but both are after IC for Sleepwalker. Thoughts ?

I've checked the Sleepwalker books :

SLEEP 19 (1-11) happens just after IW
The Mindfield arc begins in SLEEP (12-22) and ends in SLEEP 24, no gap can be put in there : Sleepwalker and Rick Sheridan's bodies are merged, then they switch bodies, and when they got their bodies back, they are free of each other, Sleepwalker doesn't need Rick to sleep to appear.
At the end of SLEEP 25, Sleepwalker seems to kill Rick, Rick is brought back to life at the end of SLEEP 33, when Sleepwalker disappears.

In SLEEP 30, SECDEF 4, IC 3-4, SLEEPHS, SLEEPHS /2 and SLEEP 25/2, Rick must sleep for Sleepwalker to appear, so it has to happen in between the two halves of SLEEP 19. So SLEEP 26-27 happens after IC, and the Avengers appearances have to be moved after IC. SLEEPHS can be let after Q 47, when Quasar gets his quantum bands back, and before IC. Rick and Sleepwalker appear both at the same time in SLEEP 25/2. SECDEF 4-5 must be moved before before SLEEP 19 (12-22), so it can be placed before IC as it is for Dr. Strange

Proposed chronologies :

Any idea how to place SLEEP 26-27 after IC for the Avengers (Black Widow, Black Knight, Sersi, Crystal, Hercules, Vision) ?

Can't it be put before, rather than after, Quasar's "death" in Infinity War? You have to write off his haircut as an art error to put it after Q 47 - not insurmountable, but something to avoid if possible.

The first spot before Q 40 would be just before IW, so in between pages 20 and 21 of SLEEP 17.

Where exactly is that putting it for Quasar?

I'm bumping this -- I'd like to get the X-side of things settled in the next week or so. We're laying out Wolverine's chronology for this period in Index v3 #2, and I want to make sure we get it right.

Where do we stand on michel's proposed solution a few posts back? Any problems with that?

Bump again. Index #3.2 goes to the printers' in less than a week, and right now Wolverine's chronology between #65-66 matches what's on the MCP. If this section of the MCP needs tweaking, we've got about six days, absolute maximum, to figure it all out and submit last-second corrections to Marvel.

What does everyone think of michel's proposed solution? Does it have any holes? Does it need re-thinking?
