House of X/Powers of X

[Clive_Reston]

One issue left to go--and I may have to revise this thoroughly once PoX 6 comes out--but the shape of it seems to be coming together...

HoX 2 (1-19) covers a set of alternate timelines.

PoX 1 (12-28)
PoX 2 (10-16)
PoX 3 --these are all from yet another timeline.

PoX 1 (29-32)
PoX 2 (17-20)
PoX 4 (15-20)
PoX 5 (17-20) --these are all in the distant future ("year 1000"), timeline unclear.

Now we get to what appears to be the 616 we know:

HoX 2 (20)
PoX 1 (2-5), PoX 1 (6-7) = HoX 2 (21-22) --Charles's first meeting with Moira
PoX 2 (1-5)
PoX 4 (1-6)
PoX 5 (1-4) --these are all significantly in the past, there are probably costume clues as to when

PoX 4 (7-14) is "months ago," evidently after DD 606 -FB for Cypher
HoX 1 (3:1) "five months ago"
HoX 1 (3:2) "four months ago"
HoX 1 (3:3) "three months ago"
HoX 1 (3:4) "two months ago"
PoX 5 (5-16) --this is not hugely long after X-Men Black: Emma Frost (and probably also after Jessica Jones: Purple Daughter)
HoX 1 (4:1) "one month ago"
HoX 1 (4:2) "three weeks ago"
HoX 1 (4:3) "two weeks ago"
HoX 1 (4:4) (there's a gap between that panel and this one)
HoX 6 -FB (1-5)
HoX 1 (5-34) the "now" of the flashbacks on pp. 3-4, beginning four days after HoX 6 -FB
PoX 1 (8-11)
PoX 2 (6-9)
HoX 3
HoX 4
HoX 5 (1-4)
HoX 1 (1-2) = HoX 5 (5-6) --I wish there were an easy way to indicate a flash-forward!
HoX 5 (7-20) spans the next few days
HoX 6 (6-20)

Yep, looks about right.

Once POX 6 is out we can start figuring out when the stuff in the past happens, but I'd like to wait to see what POX 6 says first. Who knows what will be revealed there, and it could shake everything we think we know out of whack.

It does seem like the "now" stuff may be what happens latest in the Marvel Universe at the moment, but again, we'll see.

A revised version now that we've got PoX 6:

PoX 1 (1) is symbolic.

I'm guessing lives 1-9 get classified as alternate timelines:
HoX 2 (1): life 1
HoX 2 (2:1), (2:3-4:4): life 2
HoX 2 (5-10): life 3
HoX 2 (11-12): life 4
HoX 2 (13): life 5

The "year 1000" sequences are in the distant future in life 6:
PoX 1 (29-32)
PoX 2 (17-20)
PoX 4 (15-20)
PoX 5 (17-20)
PoX 6 (8-20)

HoX 2 (14-15): life 7
HoX 2 (16-19): life 8

"Year 100" is life 9:
PoX 1 (12-28)
PoX 2 (10-16)
PoX 3

Now we get to the 616 we know, i.e. life 10:

HoX 2 (20)

The day Charles meets Moira (circa UX 389 (5) -FB)
PoX 6 (1)
PoX 1 (2-5) = PoX 6 (2-5)
PoX 1 (6-7) = HoX 2 (21-22) = PoX 6 (6-7)
PoX 6 (21-25)
HoX 2 (2:2), HoX 2 (3:1-3:2) --Moira describing her experiences (in the same outfit!); seems like it would have to be later in the same conversation

PoX 2 (1-5)
PoX 4 (1-6)
PoX 5 (1-4) --these are all significantly in the past, there are probably costume clues as to when (Moira's journal in PoX 6 may also be helpful)

PoX 4 (7-14) is "months ago," evidently after DD 606 -FB for Cypher
HoX 1 (3:1) "five months ago"
HoX 1 (3:2) "four months ago"
HoX 1 (3:3) "three months ago"
HoX 1 (3:4) "two months ago"
PoX 5 (5-16) --this is not hugely long after X-Men Black: Emma Frost (and probably also after Jessica Jones: Purple Daughter)
HoX 1 (4:1) "one month ago"
HoX 1 (4:2) "three weeks ago"
HoX 1 (4:3) "two weeks ago"
HoX 1 (4:4) (there's a gap between that panel and this one)
HoX 6 -FB (1-5)
HoX 1 (5-34) the "now" of the flashbacks on pp. 3-4, beginning four days after HoX 6 -FB
PoX 1 (8-11)
PoX 2 (6-9)
HoX 3
HoX 4
HoX 5 (1-4)
HoX 1 (1-2) = HoX 5 (5-6) --I wish there were an easy way to indicate a flash-forward!
HoX 5 (7-20) spans the next few days
PoX 6 (26-30:1) and narration on 30:1-32:2
HoX 6 (6-16:3)
HoX 6 (16:4-17:5) = PoX 6 (30:2-31:5)
HoX 6 (18-19)
HoX 6 (20) = PoX 6 (32)
PoX 6 (33-34)

Note: Forge's costume in his POX 5 flashback is officially a screw-up, don't rely on it for placement: http://www.adventuresinpoortaste.com/20 ... questions/

(Hickman doesn't specify more than that, but presumably it's meant to be earlier than the c. 1990 placement the costume would imply)

[Clive_Reston]

Ooh, that is useful information, thank you! Hope it's fixed for the trade. Yeah, I suspect that's significant because it's also significant when Xavier started running his backups of mutant psyches--if he was going to get a copy of Destiny, he'd have had to do it before UX 255 (or during Necrosha--wait, what was Xavier doing during Necrosha?).
