FEAR ITSELF to AVX

Post by Col_Fury »

Wolverine’s chronology for this period was laid out by the recent Wolverine Index. Let’s compare that to previous discussions about this period.

This placed W4 10-16 almost immediately after the Feat Itself crossover, opened a big gap in #16 and placed a bunch of stuff in it, including the Spider-Island crossover & Prelude to Schism, then, Schism right after it. The Index placed all of that stuff before W4 10-16, opened a gap in #16 and placed Prelude to Schism in it, then, Schism right after it.

The placement of X-Men v2 #7-11 & Spider-Island is the same for this and the Index.

This placed Uncanny X-Force #10-18 right after Schism, whereas the Index placed it around Wolverine & the X-Men #4, because UXFOR 19 crosses over with W&X 4; then, UXFOR 20-23 right after it, followed shortly by W2 304 & DPOOL4 50-54, and then UXFOR 24-35 (because UXFOR 10-35 wants to be one big story, but there’s only one spot for W2 304 & DPOOL4 50-54 to go thanks to Daken).

After that, the posting board put together chronologies for Deadpool, Dr. Doom, Dr. Strange, Magneto, Red Hulk, She-Hulk, Storm, Sub-Mariner & War Machine.

Putting all of that together, we get:

X-Treme X-Men v2 #1 comes after Astonishing X-Men v3 #44-47, which should take place not long after Schism. Cyclops is still recovering from his fight with Wolverine in Schism in the Astonishing arc.

So.

Schism -> (the team divides)-> Astonishing X-Men v3 #44-47 (before first Uncanny v2 arc) ->(last appearance by Dazzler, before AvX) ->X-Treme X-Men v2 #1

Dazzler cannot appear in AvX at all, as she is traveling the multiverse, until after the death of Xavier, in which she crosses over with the 616 again.

Indeed there is still no answer to Dazzler appearing in AvX. Try to fiddle this in myself, but even that seems not possible. Was hoping that people on this board with tons of experience could come up with some kind of explanation (no offense). She does play a prominent role in The Diaspora in AvX.

Not sure why Wolverine The Best there is is in the list. I thought it was established this happened before Beast left the X-men. Or am I mixing things up now.

John Wraith dies in Wolverine v4 #1-3, and his corpse appears in Best There is #3. Since W4 1-9 is one big story, and Best There Is #1-12 is one big story, Best There Is 1-12 has to happen after W4 1-9.

Why is the Beast at the X-Men's place in Best There Is? I don't know, but there's no way around it because of John Wraith. Maybe he's there as a favor to Wolverine?

As for Dazzler, I didn't realize she appeared in the AvX crossover. She leaves the Marvel universe in X-Treme v2 #1 to travel the multiverse and doesn't return until later issues of X-Treme v2 expressly after AvX. I'll see what I can figure out, but I wonder if this is going to end up like Captain Britain in X 25?

Maybe someone just sold Windsor some mislabeled product, and that wasn't really Wraith's corpse. Wraith HAD apparently faked his death before v4 #1-3 -- he was believed dead ever since Sabretooth gutted him in v2 #166. If he used a body double to fool people into thinking he was dead, that body double may be what's in Windsor's tank.

While that's possible, W4 3 (January 2011) was published three months before W:BEST 3 (April 2011); that's a pretty clear chain of events. Good thinkin', though!

OK, Amazing Spider-Man (first installment)...

Issues #674-675 occur over one day, probably before Punisher #5.

Issue #676 is a one-day standalone that occurs "a few months" before FF 22 and must occur after Vengeance #3.

Vengeance #1-6 occur over two days off on their own during this period.

Amazing Spider-Man #692/3 is a FB story that occurs while Steve Rogers is wearing his super-soldier costume. I happened to place this story between ASM 676 and 677 and shortly after Secret Avengers #21, but there's flexibility here.

Issue #677 leads directly into Daredevil #8 (same day) for Daredevil. Dialog in ASM 677 suggests that Daredevil has joined the Avengers, so after New Avengers v2 #22.

Issue #678-679 occur over three days (Monday-Wednesday) off on their own.

Issue #679.1 occurs over two days, probably before Hulk #52 for Morbius.

Issues #680-681 occur on a single day, sometime after FF 604 and probably after Avenging Spider-Man #7. Johnny Storm doesn't appear to have moved in with Peter Parker yet even though he proposed doing so in FF 16 (a week after FF 604).

Issues #682-684 begin two days after ASM 681 and occur over two days.

Issue #685 occurs three days after ASM 684 and weaves together with Amazing Spider-Man: Ends of the Earth #1 and #1/2. Issues #686-687 follow right from there (same day) and lead directly into Avenging Spider-Man #8. This arc occurs a month before ASM 698. Since the Avengers are still at the mansion (not the tower), this arc should occur before Avengers Assemble #1.

EDIT: Issues/Questions about X-Men related placements

1.) Gen Hope is well before X-Men Legacy, but Zero was still alive when the Utopia students helped fight Exodus in Legacy.
2.) Jubilee was at Northstar's wedding in Astonishing. It seems odd to me that she would leave with The Forgiven, return for the wedding, and disappear until after AvX. However I can accept this if there are other continuity markers as to why X-Men 20-29 is so early and/or Liu's Astonishing is so late.
3.) Genesis appears in New Mutants #44-49 before reality becomes unstuck. Right now this is before he enrolls at the school. Moving this forward would also give more space in which to fit NM #37-43. I would go so far as to say it happens after Northstar's wedding, given that none of the other NM are at the wedding and Karma makes a comment about it being "months" since her San Fran-based friends made any contact with her and Cannonball.
4.) Uncanny X-Men #9-10 seems a bit early, because Hope's conversation with UNIT happens right before her training with Scott that causes the Phoenix flair. So either the entire story should be later, or at least the last few pages that lead in to AvX.
5.) Due to the presence of Psylocke, I would sugguest placing the non-FB parts of Uncanny X-Men #4 during or after the end of Uncanny X-Men #8 as the team flies back from helping at Tabula Rasa and investigates this quick Phalanx threat before heading home to Utopia.
6.) Can Thor's appearances help place the Exiled crossover?

Good catch!

This is because of Deadpool. Deadpool loses his healing factor in DPOOL4 50-54, which HAS to be placed between UXFOR 23-24. X2 26-27 (where Deadpool appears) has to happen before DPOOL4 50, and by extension before UXFOR 10 (UXFOR 10-35 is one big chain of events only interrupted by W&X 4, W2 304 & DPOOL4 50-54). Because X2 26-27 have to happen that early, that means X2 20-29 does as well.

:shock: You're right, Genesis appears in NM3 45. After the wedding makes sense for the reasons you list; this will require a change in the current Dr. strange chronology.

The last few pages of UX2 10 could happen later, or the conversation seen in UX2 10 could be the start of several conversations.

Somebody mentioned this a while back; the timing of the issue does seem odd.
Emerald_616 wrote:6.) Can Thor's appearances help place the Exiled crossover?
Hey, I just read those Thor/Journey into Mystery comics! :)

The short answer is no, not really. JiM 631-636 happens after Thor's "death" in Fear Itself and before Thor's return. Thor returns in Thor #8-12, which happens very shortly after Fear Itself. Thor #13-17 happens basically the day after that. Thor #18 starts the Everything Burns crossover with JiM. JiM 637-638 (the Exiled crossover) happens sometime after Thor #17, but that's a pretty big wide open space.

Just going by publication order, I'd say after W&X 8 and before W2 305. The Exiled crossover was published the same month as ASTONX3 50, so before the wedding?

Yeah, here was the thread: Uncanny X-Men v2 #4-FB
Somebody wrote:
Frans wrote:Also I'm not certain when the second flashback? happens when Sinister (in new costume) returns from an X-Men fight and disposes of all test subjects. The Phalanx later surfaces from the ground, due to assimilating worms, and then assimilates a girl and later a whole town. It seems like it happens over a long period of time.
I wondered about this when I first read it - it seems like the Extinction team appears here out-of-sequence:

1) New-Sinister appears directly after UX2 3 (the previous issue)
2) There is, as you say, a long gap after the New-Sinister scene while the Phalanx rebuilds itself
3) The Extinction Team show up with Psylocke in place of Frost. The scene where she's asked to fill in is at the start of the next arc and in response to the appearance of Tabula Rasa. And that arc ends with Frost's arm still being reattached.

I suspect the order goes:

UX2 1-3 [Sinisters arc]
UX2 4 (4) [Sinister disposes of lab]
UX2 5-8 [Tabula Rasa arc] ~ UX2 4 (5) [Phalanx rebuilds itself]
UX2 4 (6-20) [Extinction Team destroy Phalanx]

I made some additions and rearranged some things. Given where Venom v2 #13-14 has to happen for X-23, and the placement of her book in the Wolverine Index, we have to move it slightly in our existing Red Hulk chronology (to between Avenging Spider-Man #3 & #5 instead of before #1, which also works better for publication order!).

Continuing Spidey...

Issues #688-691 of Amazing occur over a two-day period, likely starting the day after the aforementioned Avenging Spider-Man #8. It's weeks after ASM 675. Overall publication order places this arc before ASM@ 39. The arc must occur before Iron Man #1, since M.J.'s nightclub appears in that issue.

Publication order places ASM@ 39 before the one-day Avenging Spider-Man #9-10 (1-17). Avenging #10 (18-20) occurs one week after the first 17 pages of that issue. Overall publication order places that last segment before PPSM 156.1 and WOSM 129.1. Publication order also places Carol Danvers in Avenging #10 (18-20) before Captain Marvel #2.

Okay, let's back up to Avenging Spider-Man #1-3. These issue occur during one day. Because Spidey refers to his newly returned Spider-sense, this arc must occur after ASM 673. Because Hawkeye still wears his old costume, this arc must occur before Avengers #19, Secret Avengers #21.1, Captain America #6, and Avengers Academy #22 (probably before Academy #21, which occurs only days before Academy #22). Thor must appear here after Thor #12 and probably after Thor #12.1.

Avenging #4 occurs one day during the week before issue #5. Hawkeye's in his new costume, so this issue must occur after Academy #21 and probably after Academy #25. Publication order puts Sidewinder in Avenging #4 after Villains for Hire #0.1.

Avenging #5 occurs over two days. Cottonmouth and Anaconda must escape after their arrest here to appear in AVX. Given the pre-shakeup Avengers roster shown here, Avenging #5 probably occurs before Avengers #19, as you have it.

Avenging #6 is a one-day affair with no obvious placement clues relative to other titles.

Avenging #7 occurs on a single day and must occur before ASM 682. It's likely before ASM 680 since Avenging #8 follows up from ASM 687, as noted before.

Re: FEAR ITSELF to AVX

I just covered Avengers Academy #21, so on to #23-28.

Avengers Academy #23-28 is one arc likely occurring over three days. Issue #22 is referred to as having occurred the other day. This arc probably occurs before Secret Avengers #21.1, Avenging Spidey #4, and Avengers #19, given Hawkeye's costume.

I forgot my theory about X-Treme X-Men v2 1-7.

Now, I am fully 100% aware that the beginning of the first issue clearly states "Before AvX."

HOWEVER, Dazzler doesn't seem to appear after the first Act of AvX. So I think it's possible the scene in issue #1 could happen shortly before the Phoenix 5 begin there Great Humanitarian Works across the world. We know from X-Men Legacy #268 with Frenzy that there's a period of several days and possibly weeks where the Phoenix Five and the X-Men go about solving a lot of world problems. Since X-Treme #1 shows them on Utopia, Scott could use his Phoenix powers to disguise himself in his regular costume in order to not frighten the X-Men from other realities. Then the scene can unfold as it does and Dazz goes with them. This way, Dazz misses out on the second and third acts of AvX only to return home and discover the aftermath in 7.1.

Thoughts?

EDIT: Also, for New Mutants #37, does the presence of the Hel-Hound puppy Warlock has hidden help with placement?

EDIT 2: I believe Secret Avengers #22-25 happens after Final Execution because of Captain Britain. However, I'm unsure as I haven't actually read those issues, only the brief synopses. But considering his preoccupation with Otherworld battles in Uncanny X-Force, he seemed to be solely there and not splitting time on an Avengers squad (and both were written by Remender, who at least respects his own continuity).
