Re: Fantastic Four (1981)

Placement of the second story is complicated because it has to take place when the Red Ghost is able to turn solid and Ross is a general- and that's a surprisingly narrow window. The Red Ghost is trapped in his ghost form in Iron Man 82- he's then transformed into mist in Iron Man 83 and he doesn't ...

Re: Exclusive Collector's Edition: Spider-Man (1980)

Which is unfortunate, since SW 21-35 take place after Avengers 184 and before Hulk 261, when the Absorbing Man should be on the island.

I just realized- Randy could be the child of John Jameson's mother's sibling. Still doesn't explain the Green Goblin though.

Re: Exclusive Collector's Edition: Spider-Man (1980)

And this gets difficult. Peter doesn't meet Jessica Drew until Spider-Woman 20 and Jessica loses her powers in Avengers 241. The problem is that Peter and MJ aren't really dating during this period. However, we placed Marvel Team-Up 79 during this period, so we can presumably place this story as wel...

Re: Exclusive Collector's Edition: Spider-Man (1980) [AIM Toothpaste]

Since Glory is Jonah's secretary, this has to take place after Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man 2. There's two problems. One is the Green Goblin. As far as we saw, there was only Green Goblin story between Spectacular Spider-Man 2 and Inferno- Amazing Spider-Man 176-180- and there's no place...

The Amazing Spider-Man: Managing Materials #1 (1990) Suspicious about how the weight of three kids could knock a beam in a building loose, he calls up his old college buddy Nate Briggs, who is not an engineering professor at ESU. NOT an engineering professor? I hope for Peter's sake that you mean N...

Re: Iron Fist v6 #80

Is this the same Legion of Vengeance from Marvel Comics Presents 113-118? Because if it is, they were humans empowered by D'Kay, not demons.

Re: T'Chaka alive in Storm 1-6?

Storm 1-6 have all sorts of references that don't make sense- in issue 1, there's a reference to Thor while Storm's parents are still alive, in issue 3, it's said that T'Challa's FATHER defeated the Fantastic Four when T'Challa was a boy, etc...

NOTE #1: The Torch is never seen flying higher than the stratosphere, and is only gone for a few hours, suggesting the “planet Jupiter” is an asteroid passing thru the Earth’s upper atmosphere. In Avengers West Coast 57, Jim Hammond tells Hank Pym that contrary to what some of the old stories say a...

Diabolique and Diabolique II

Why do we have Diabolique and Diabolique II listed as different characters. It seems to be the same character in all the stories- a creepy demon child with a pet spider named Zoroaster. Is there a retcon I missed?

MCP 152/4-154/4

Currently, we have M/CP 152/4-154/4 placed in between MSMK 51 and 52. There's several issues with that placement. Firstly, Chainsaw, the villain of the arc, seemingly died twice- first in Moon Knight 22-24 and later in Punisher War Journal 47. Marc and Marlene are surprised that he's alive but they ...
