Marvel Chronology Project

I'm currently reading Marvel Masterworks The Incredible Hulk vol. 5. At the beginning of issue #115, General Ross contacts Avengers Mansion with a question for Rick Jones about the Hulk. He reaches an unnamed "cleaning woman" who refers to the apparent death of Captain America in contempor...

The story deals with time travel and appears contemporaneous, but it could be set in the '30s or '40s.

ST 5/1 Professor Henry (not clear if first or last name) (dies) Professor Wilkins Doctor Mattery Roxana Narrse (ghost) Albitra Narrse Gobbo (invoked) This story falsely portrays witch burning in 1692 Salem, Massachusetts (historically, 19 hangings and one pressed to death). Roxana Narrse, whose name...

The first four are members of the Royal Ministry of Embryology, all except Laurier are killed by a tarlike alien weapon that destroys tw...

1/3 is a text story. Should I ignore the text stories for MCP purposes? I'm happy to do more of these. Each Masterworks volume is usually ten issues, so that's about 79 more issues to do.

I noticed Atlas era horror on the list of issues that needed to be covered. I own a number of these hardcovers (Strange Tales vols. 1 and 4; Journey Into Mystery vols. 1-4; Tales of Suspense vol. 1) This is my first attempt, Strange Tales 1. Any feedback for this would be appreciated. I included cha...

Very well. I just can't see a good reason why it takes place so many months before it was published when it interferes with the flow so much. Of course, I kept saying that there was a Ted Sallis flashback in DD 113, and when I looked at it today, I saw that it only mentions him rather than shows him.

Well, in the issues of Fear where Jennifer plays only a minor role (16-18), the page or so we do see her reflects on her nightmares after her mental link to Man-Thing was severed, which comes to the forefront in Fear #19/Man-Thing #1. This makes me think MTIO #1 would come after Man-Thing #1, which ...

Overstreet has been the go-to reference guide to comics the longest. Because of Overstreet, certain Golden Age comic book titles are assumed to have "comics" in the title when they actually don't. I've been getting Golden Age Marvel Masterworks through interlibrary loan recently, and I've ...

Not really. Def 107 seems to take place over several days and allow for it.

This seems to refer to the stories in Def 103, CA 256, and Def 106. 107 seems to have some time elapse over the course of the issue. 108 and 109 are about getting Valkyrie's body out of hell after Barbara Norris's dies from a shot in the back, and I can't fathom why Professor Power would know about ...

I still think it's placed poorly because of the Jennifer Kale pages, which seem to suggest consecutive nights.

Man-Thing's appearance in A 118 is one panel.

After omitting it from the omnibus hardcover, this issue is included in the new The Man-Thing by Steve Gerber trade paperback. It follows this site in placing Marvel Two-in-One #1 between Fear #17 and 18. I remember criticizing this placement on these boards some years ago. The issue came out the sa...
