Re: AVX chronology
Yes, it really is cluttered, isn't it? Sorry that I didn't notice your new post sooner, I guess I just don't really pay much attention to 'stickied' threads, but now it's been un-'stickied', I was scrolling through the forum and there it was.
You put Uncanny X-Men p5 before AvX #1 p27. Where is the logic of having Cap say something, then Cyclops not reply, then they walk to greet each other (in silence), and then speak. In my mind, I just don't see how this fits. In my opinion, yes this should be the first time Cap says it due to Cyclops' reaction, but it should be after they greet each other.
New Avengers #24 was just pointless, wasn't it? I guess you could treat it as if they've fallen off after Colossus hit them, and are now in formation???
in my opinion, the worst part of the Utopia fight were the SHIELD jets. You always see them flying around yet they don't interact with any of the fights at all (correct me if I'm wrong). Is it just me, or does anyone else want to see SHIELD Fighter Aces vs Colossus or someone similar?

Re: AVX chronology
Sorry for my massively late reply.
The reason for having UXM#11 p5 before AvX#1 p27 is that Cyclops is standing just in front of the other X-Men. On p27 he is walking away from them. I have to admit that it is a bit odd to have Captain America saying that they have to take Hope into protective custody. I'd like to think that Cyclops is building up tension by not saying anything or implying that he did not hear Captain America say it the first time or maybe he really did not hear it. I'd even thought at one time Captain America was more or less talking to himself. As I said, some scenes make no sense, like...New Avengers #24.
When Colossus hits the Helicarrier, you see Avengers actually fall down in the water. In NA#24 they all jump towards Cyclops. That's why the jumping from higher to lower decks come into place. Also the Helicarrier looks not damaged at all. That's why I thought to place this scene before Colossus hits the Helicarrier. If you have another suggestion for placement, please let me know.
When I have some time, I will continue with the rest...

Re: AVX chronology
Hereby my thoughts and order on the Utopia Beach Fight. Generally I can not find actual proof that the Helicarrier falls down on the Beach. My order follows the notion that the Helicarrier does not fall down. In Avengers #25-FB it does not fall down (IMO). Therefore I do not believe that Colossus and Red Hulk are fighting outside the water, inside the water, outside the water and inside the water again... My order is a bit different from Paul's. Also the whole fight between Namor, Thing and Luke Cage is messy for any chronology, but also here my order is different. Please have a look and let me know if you have questions or do not agree.Paul Bourcier wrote: AVENGERS VS. X-MEN #2 (2:2-5:1)

She runs back to take out all Avengers with a telepathic blast. Iron Man expects her plan and zaps her down. She transforms to diamond and punches Iron Man. Then Magneto helps Emma Frost and Iron Man and Magneto fight. Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver watch the fight at a tv screen. Quicksilver plans on going and asks Scarlet Witch to come with. Seconds later Quicksilver joins the Iron Man/Magneto/Emma Frost fight and punches his father Magneto in the face.

AVENGERS VS X-MEN 2 (page 16 panel 1)
Red Hulk and Colossus still fight on the Helicarrier.
Red Hulk and Colossus have not been seen falling down from the Helicarrier so far. Assuming that after this panel they fall down (off panel).
AVENGERS 25 (splash page 1 and 2, page 3 first panel)
Fight scene on the beach of Utopia. Colossus punches Iron Man. Captain America punches Magneto. Spider-Woman blasts Sunspot. Shield has joined the fight with jets. Spider-Man fights Namor. Cyclops, Storm, Wolverine, Red Hulk and Doctor Strange also are on the scene, but it does not show whom they are fighting.
Hard scene to place chronologically. Captain America says "Take the beach", which would imply that this was at the first pages of Avengers vs X-Men #2. However the inclusion of Red Hulk, Colossus and Namor makes this impossible. Assuming Red Hulk and Colossus fell down from the Helicarrier (at a later stage) amidst the fighting on the beach (off panel). Also we have to place this after the AvX fight of Namor and Thing, where both rised from the sea. Also assuming that Luke Cage is still unconscious in the water.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 10 FLASHBACK (page 1-2 panel 1)
Wolverine and Captain America yell "Take the beach". A big fighting scene is happening with inclusion of a lot of Avengers and X-Men. Sunspot and Wolverine. Psylocke and Spider-Man. Domino. Magik. Giant-Man. Captain America and Cyclops. Thing. Red Hulk. Colossus. Warpath. Storm. Black Panther. Spider-Woman.

Another big topic is that Spider-Woman is in this scene as well as in Avengers 25. In Uncanny X-Men 11 she is under water, motionless.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 2 (page 16 panel 2-3)
In panel 2 Namor and Luke Cage and Thing, all under water. In panel 3 Doc Strange is fighting Emma Frost and Magneto; Sunspot fights Giant-Man; Nemesis defeated Quicksilver and now takes on Iron Man.
Assuming Thing and Namor landed up into the water again. There they fight once more.
AVENGERS 28 FLASHBACK (page 1 panel 1)
Red Hulk fights Colossus under water.
It looks like they just jumped in the water, so place before Uncanny X-Men 11 where the fight continues. Assuming Red Hulk and Colossus ended up in the water. And Colossus is now seen with his Juggernaut helmet.
UNCANNY X-MEN 11 (page 9-11)
Colossus and Red Hulk fight under water. Nearby Namor is fighting Thing with a motionless Luke Cage. Also Spider-Woman is seen floating motionless under water. Red Hulk punches Colossus more and more until he turns into evil Juggernaut.
Also a very hard scene to place chronologically. Spider-Woman is seen floating motionless under water. However she is nowhere else seen in or never fell into the water. Therefore assuming Spider-Woman was punched into the water off panel. Also the fact that Colossus and Red Hulk fight under water is odd at the least. They fought in the Helicarrier at the start of Avengers vs X-Men 2. On page 16 of AvX 2 they still fought in the Helicarrier. And because of their appearances in Avengers 25 and Wolverine and the X-Men 10 we assumed they fell out of the Helicarrier but not in the water but on the beach. So they fought others in between and now are fighting under water. How they end up there is a uncertain. Another cracker is Namor fighting Thing again under water with Luke Cage floating motionless. Also Namor and Thing were part of other fighting scenes in Avengers 25 and Wolverine and the X-Men 10 making this scene hard to place. If we treat the first water fight as on its own, they can fight others in between.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 2 (page 16 panel 4 - 17)
Captain America tries to convince Cyclops once more to give up Hope so the Avengers can protect her. Cyclops says to Magik back door. Captain America instructs Doctor Strange to follow. Magik has tricked Doctor Strange, because she's now in Limbo, her domain in which she is master. She says to him that she's surprised that he was dumb enough to follow her.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 2 (page 18 - page 19 panel 1)
Danger says to Cyclops that Utopia will fall quickly now. Then Cyclops notices that Wolverine is missing. Avengers and X-Men are still fighting. Wolverine and Spider-Man go through the drain pipes looking for a way into Utopia to find Hope. In the mean time Hope has taken out all of her fellow X-Students using Phoenix power.
UNCANNY X-MEN 11 (page 12 panel 1-4)
Hope stands amidst the defeated X-Students and is covered in Phoenix Fire. She thinks no-one understands her.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 2 (page 19 panel 2 - 19 panel 3)
Wolverine and Spider-Man burst in the room and see Hope covered in Phoenix Force standing between the defeated X-students. Wolverine pops his claws.
UNCANNY X-MEN 11 (page 12 panel 5 - page 13)
Hope sees Wolverine coming at her with his claws stretched. Spider-Man tries to stop him.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 2 (page 19 panel 4 - 20 panel 1)
Hope stops Wolverine's attack. She holds him in the air and lets him taste the kiss of the Phoenix.
UNCANNY X-MEN 11 (page 14)
Hope tosses Wolverine and Spider-Man aside. Then Hope runs away from Utopia.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 2 (page 20 panel 2 - 21)
Both teams find the room with the unconscious X-Students, Wolverine and Spider-Man to see that Hope is gone. Hope is seen covered in Phoenix flames running away over water.
UNCANNY X-MEN 11 (page 15-21)
Red Hulk finally defeats Colossus under water. Magik knows and tells Cyclops. Cyclops asks Danger where Hope is. Danger tells that Hope is off-island. Cyclops orders Kate Kildare to activate the Avengers protocol which is a press release.
This UXM scene happens after AvX #2 where Avengers and X-Men burst into the room to find the burned Wolverine/Spider-Man and Hope gone. Afterwards they search the premesis for Hope. They find out that Hope is off-island (as Danger says). Placing this before AvX #2 is a bit odd because Cyclops burst into the room asking "Hope" and he would have just found out then that she's off-island.
Re: AVX chronology
It's been a while, but I'd like to pick up where I left off. AvX... After the Utopia Beach fight the Search for Hope began. Section below covers that.

They interrupt the execution of Captain Britain, Valkyrie, and Rhodey and break the influence of the Kree minister’s son over the Kree populace. The son challenges his father and the minister kills him. When the Avengers confront the minister (Mar-Vell’s nephew), he commits suicide. With minutes remaining before Phoenix reaches Hala, the Avengers launch into space, Carol summons her Binary powers and tries to coerce the Phoenix through an inter-dimensional portal opened by Thor with Mjolnir. When that plan fails, Captain Britain manages to push the Phoenix back. Mar-Vell gives up his energies to the Phoenix, which sates the creature. Phoenix leaves, the Avengers depart for Earth with the recuperating Thor and Captain Britain, and Mar-Vell’s inert body lands on a planet and is claimed by its vegetation.

SECRET AVENGERS 26 (pages 1-8/9 panel 2)
Beast has a bad dream. Thor and Valkyrie are drinking before the big battle. Vision, Ms Marvel, Protector and War Machine see footage how Phoenix destroyed another planet 3 hours ago. Some Kree try to revive Captain Marvel with the help of a sliver of M'Kraan crystal and the nega-bands and of course Phoenix energies. The four Avengers at the monitors say there will be contact with the Phoenix Force within 15 minutes. They alert the others. Beast straps his own designed Phoenix cage on War Machine's back. They all step outside the space shuttle to face the Phoenix.
Thor says to Captain Britain tonight we warriors drink. Interpret tonight a bit loosely as in AvX #2 it is still the same day as the
day they left Earth. In AvX #2 there is even a time indication.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 2 (page 22)
In deep space the Avengers stand opposite of the Phoenix. This is their first contact (same as in Secret Avengers 26). Beast is in the shuttle. The others are outside. Ms. Marvel is in a space suit. No sign of the Phoenix Cage. Phoenix Force is right in front of them. Time indicated is 3:45 pm on Tuesday.
Mistakes due to artistic impression: no sign of the Phoenix cage, Beast in the shuttle as opposed to Secret Avengers 26 where he
is outside, Ms Marvel in a space suit as opposed to Secret Avengers 26 where she is without.
SECRET AVENGERS 26 (pages 8/9 panel 3 - page 13 panel 3)
They have full contact. Thor is horribly injured by the Phoenix. War Machine carries the Phoenix cage on his back, but also gets heavily injured. Despite Beast's warnings not to, Captain Britain takes the Phoenix cage. Because of his magic based powers the cage reacts differently to the attacks of the Phoenix and is destroyed in the process.
AVENGERS 26 FLASHBACK (page 9-10)
Phoenix about to leave the fight scene. Captain Britain seen with destroyed Phoenix cage on his back. War Machine and Thor injured.
SECRET AVENGERS 26 (pages 13 panel 4-17)
The Phoenix escapes and the plan of the Kree succeeds as Captain Marvel is revived when the Phoenix flies through the satellite where his body is kept. The Minister of the Kree says to his people the plan succeeded, the Phoenix comes to Hala. Because of their wounded and power to conserve the Avengers have to land on Hala. They have stealth shields and Protector knows a good place to hide from the hostile Kree.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 3 (page 1-7)
Wolverine regains consciousness in a room on Utopia. Spider-man tells him that Hope is gone. Wolverine realises, but when Spider-Man tells him that Cyclops has surrendered to CA, he rushes out. Captain America and Iron Man argue what to do with the captive X-Men. Then Doc Strange appears with an unconsious Magik in his arms. Cyclops is worried and asks if she is okay. Then Wolverine storms with his claws stretched and sees through the illusion. Captain America stops him and says that the X-Men are their prisoners. Cyclops says to Doc Strange that Wolverine knows. Wolverine yells to Captain America that that is not Doc Strange. Then the X-men step through a teleportation disc of Magik. Wolverine storms towards them but is too late. The X-Men are gone and Magik transforms into Doc Strange. Wolverine says that the Avengers are played and are having a head-start on finding Hope. In Long Beach the Extinction Team of the X-Men appear through a teleportation disc of Magik. Suppose it's not too long after they left Utopia, probably immediately. Emma Frost uses telepathy, so people can not see them. Namor says they need a mutant tracking device. The only working Cerebra is at Wolverine's school. Emma Frost says they need sympathisers in the school. Cyclops says he already got one candidate. He says let's move X-Men.
AVENGERS ACADEMY 29 (page 1- 18 panel 3)
Captain America, Hawkeye, Quicksilver, Wolverine, Giant-Man drop the X-Students of Utopia of at Avengers Academy. Madison Jeffries and Kavita Rao agreed to be their chaperones. Also Sebastian Shaw was taken with the group. Captain America says that the X-Students are not prisoners, but are not supposed to leave the premises. Giant-Man tells Tigra she has to stay behind. Hercules decides he is going to help her. Shaw is put into custody because Avengers think he is too dangerous. The X-Kids are not too happy to be sort of treated as prisoners on the compound. First they agree to do games, but understanding the graveness of their situation they stop with game playing. Shaw punches himself with books in his prison cell building up his
kinetic energies.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 10 (page 2 panel 2-20)
Apparently Wolverine just walked into the JGS. Kitty Pryde asks if he is allright. No he is not, he used his claws on people he considered friends and was called a traitor. Then Cyclops appears on the door step of the JGS looking for sanctuary. Wolverine summons him to leave. Wolverine lets Kid Krakoa attack Cyclops, Emma Frost and Magik. Iceman and Rachel Grey run towards them. Cyclops and Wolverine walk away and talk. They do not come to an understanding. Then Wolverine asks why Cyclops appeared, because he would have known Wolverine would not change his mind. Then Cyclops replies that Wolverine is not the only X-Man at the JGS. Cyclops, Frost and Magik leave thru a portal after Wolverine threatens him that time's up. Afterwards Wolverine hears from Rachel Grey, Iceman, Gambit and Chamber that they not necessarily will fight at the side of the Avengers.
In the mean time Angel is testing whether he is a real angel or not. When he falls back to Earth he is rescued by Genesis. Wolverine gets a priority call from Captain America to report to Avengers Tower. Oya asks Wolverine not to hurt Hope. The Shi'ar Death Commandos make their way to Earth to kill the Phoenix host and anyone who stands in their way.
At the end of the issue it looks like Rachel Grey, Iceman and Angel are departing. However at the beginning of X-Men Legacy 266 Rachel and Iceman depart again after a teacher's meeting. It's best if we believe that they are not departing here. Another reason is Rachel's presence at the school in Avengers vs X-men 3, where Captain America and Wolverine ask her if she can find Hope with Cerebra.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 3 (page 8-9)
In San Francisco Hope makes bracelets to keep the Avengers and X-Men away from tracking her. She needs something that flies and hopes that the bracelets will hold.
The street lanterns are on, so it is nearly night.
AVENGERS ACADEMY 29 (page 18 panel 4 - 22)
8 hours later. Sebastian Shaw punched himself 8 hours long with books. After that he built up enough kinetic energy to punch a hole in the floor of his cell. Tigra and Madison Jeffries hear the noise and investigate. They see the hole trough which Shaw has made his escape to the sewers of the complex.
The "8 hour later" reference make this occur close to or right after midnight. The last page of Avengers vs X-Men note the time is 3:45 pm. Then we have the X-Men escape the Avengers on Utopia. The X-Students delivered on the doorstep of the Academy. All in all this would at least take a few hour. Plus 8 hours makes this well after midnight. Also in Avengers Academy 31 you see the sun rising again, making these issues occurring after midnight into the next morning.
AVENGERS ACADEMY 30
The mutant kids of the Academy plan to side with the X-Kids. Tigra, Hercules, Kavita Rao and Madison Jeffries begin tracking Shaw down. Rao suspects he's going to kill the X-kids to get back at Emma Frost. Shaw defeats all his followers, Jeffries, Tigra, Hercules. The X-Kids fight the Academy Kids for their freedom. The mutant Academy kids side with the X-kids. As a big fight looms X-23 stands her ground and says that the Avengers have brought the X-Kids here for all the wrong reasons. This sort of not imprisonment is still an imprisonment. Then Shaw appears out of the shadows.
AVENGERS ACADEMY 31
Kavita Rao warns the Academy Kids that Shaw wants to murder the X-Kids. The X-Kids don't know that and begin to fight the Academy Kids. Then they find out that Shaw is not there to kill them, but to free them. Tigra and Hercules show up but they will not let Shaw go free or any of the X-Kids for that reason. The Academy Kids convince their teachers that the X-Kids need to be set free. Since cameras are hanging everywhere Tigra comes up with a plan to fake a big fight. Apparently the X-Kids win. Shaw jumps into the ocean and swims away, while the X-Kids and Jeffries and Rao are teleported away by Pixie. Loa stays behind of her own free choice.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 3 (page 10-11)
In Avengers Tower Wolverine and Captain America contact Rachel Grey at JGS to find out where Hope is hiding. Rachel tells that Cerebra shows five different locations. When Wolverine pushes further, Rachel reluctantly answers. Captain America steps in and thanks Rachel for her help. Wolverine falls out and says he can handle his own people. Captain America says they lost valuable time and that they all know what Wolverine's solution to the problem is. At the JGS Rachel Grey telepathically contacts Cyclops. She says they better hurry because the Avengers are already on Hope's trail.
It is a bit odd that Rachel does behave secretly towards Wolverine, while she just admitted in Wolverine and the X-Men 10 that
she will fight at the side of the X-men. Rachel mentioning it is early means that it is morning.
X-MEN LEGACY 266 (page 1-5)
Kitty Pryde is chairman of a teacher's meeting. Wolverine is gone. Rachel Grey addresses their former decision to stay at the JGS for the students. However everything has changed now, they are at war with the Avengers. Now is the time they would have to choose for themselves. Kitty briefly updates the teacher on the Phoenix coming, Hope possibly being the host for it. That Cyclops believes she will reinstate the mutant race. Wolverine and Avengers think it will be a danger to all humankind. There have been hostilities, a battle on Utopia and now both sides are looking for Hope. Iceman takes over and says that he and Rachel are joining Cyclops. Now it is for them to decide what to do. All of other teachers decide to stay at JGS for the students. Then Iceman and Rachel leave.
I't a bit odd to have Iceman and Rachel Grey there, because it looked like they left in Wolverine and the X-Men 10. Although it may not be uncommon that they would have let the other teachers know that they would leave the JGS after promising to stay first.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 3 (page 12-13)
Captain America tells the Avengers that Iron Man stays back in Avengers Tower to work on a counter measure for the Phoenix. He teams up the Avengers and sends them to the five different locationas all over the globe. He wants to have reports every hour and he wants them to keep out of the spotlight. Then he says to Wolverine that he comes with him.
X-MEN LEGACY 266 (page 6-20)
During Rogue's class her students mention that Avengers have arrived on their lawn. She-Hulk, Moon Knight and Falcon tell the teachers of the JGS that they are here to keep them from defecting to Cyclops' side. This falls bad with the teachers. They agree that the Avengers can take their quinjet out of sight and out of school grounds. They can watch everyone from a distance. Then Frenzy thinks it is fair that she also makes a mark which the Avenger can not tresspass. She challenges Moon Knight, who gets extremely mad and crosses Frenzy's drawn line. Frenzy smashes him to the ground. Rogue runs outside to stop the fight, she's followed by Hellion, Glob Herman and Match. She-Hulk goes full force agains the students, thinking they are grown-ups. Hellion is hurt, which makes Rogue so mad she absorbs She-Hulk's power. Redwing presses the alarm button. Then Iron Man arrives.
One hour later. Let's presume that Captain America sent the teams away already. She-Hulk mentions that a bunch of teachers defected to Cyclops' side. When Kitty Pryde demands to talk to Wolverine, Falcon replies that the is … out of reach at the moment, implying he is or in the Antarctic or flying above it, ready to be kicked out.
X-MEN LEGACY 267
Teachers of the JGS now full force attack the Avengers. Chamber and Husk take the (wounded) students back into the school. Rogue absorbs the powers of all Avengers. When Moon Knight freely touches Rogue, she receives also his multiple personalities, making her insane for a while. As Kitty Pryde notices the Iron Man armor is just a husk, Rogue tears it to shreds. Later the teachers autopilot the quinjet back with the unconscious Avengers in it. They now realise they no longer can stay on the sidelines, the Avengers would not let them. Rogue tells them to call Rachel and Iceman that they are in.
UNCANNY X-MEN 12 (1-3)
On a secret location Magik teleports all free X-Men to Cyclops. Storm asks about the children. Cyclops says that they are in the custody of the Avengers. They are looking for Hope. Cyclops divides them all into teams. Namor teams up with Hepzibah and Sunspot. They travel to Tabula Rasa.
This happens after Rachel has told Cyclops to hurry. No-one of the JGS X-Men is present here. Presumably Magik teleports them to the various locations. Since She-Hulk is on Tabula Rasa, this has to happen after X-Men Legacy 266-267. Also the inclusion of Gambit implies that this scene happens after.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 3 (page 14-22)
In the quinjet Captain America takes Wolverine apart. He addresses Wolverine taking off on Utopia on his own and scared Hope off into fleeing the scene. He says Wolverine did not follow orders and he's not to be trusted on this mission either. Wolverine says he will kille the girl to keep the Phoenix off bay, and that locking her up is not sufficient. He tells Wolverine to sit this one out. Wolverine and Captain America begin to fight. Both of them wounded, Captain America says that he has the Avengers. On that note Giant-Man punches him in the back and Sharon Carter opens an airlock. Giant-Man kicks him out of the quinjet. Wolverine plummets down in the Antarctic. The others travel further to the Savage Land.
SECRET AVENGERS 26 (pages 18-20)
Thor and War Machine are heavily injured. Beast gives Captain Britain a hard time for destroying the Phoenix cage. Outside Ms. Marvel and Protector talk about Hala and Earth. Then the revived Captain Marvel shows up and asks the duo to kill the Avengers.
SECRET AVENGERS 27
Captain Marvel, Ms. Marvel and Protector attack the Avengers in the space shuttle. They take Valkyrie, Captain Britain and War Machine to their capital to publicly execute them. Ms. Marvel and Protector are in the thrall of Captain Marvel. When the other Avengers regain consciousness they travel to the capital to find their friends. Captain Marvel defeats the wounded Thor, but begins to doubt as he sees Kree soldiers execute normal civilians who recently came out their thrall of the Phoenix making Hala a better world.
SECRET AVENGERS 28
Vision manages to break the spell of the nephew of Minister Marvel. Just in time before the captive Avengers were beheaded. Now all see the real danger of the Phoenix arriving. Ms. Marvel transforms to Binary and fights together with Thor the Phoenix Force. When that is not enough Captain Britain takes over, but it is the revived Captain Marvel who puts himself between the Phoenix and Hala. When the Phoenix gets her portion of the Phoenix power back from Captain Marvel she puts her attention elsewhere. The Kree help the Avengers repair their space shuttle. They take care of the wounded Avengers again. Captain Marvel is dead again.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 1-2)
On Antarctica Hope lures Wolverine to her plane with cans of beer. Wolverine is hooded into a polar bear skin. Hope admits that she was looking for him and the best was a beer trap.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 3-5)
Deep space, the inner rim of the Eradinian system. All Avengers float around motionless, except for Thor. Thor throws his hammer at the Phoenix. The Phoenix is hurt by the hammer and then consumes a whole planet to the horror of Thor.
This scene is awfully difficult to place. The inclusion of Protector causes issues. Protector has betrayed the other Avengers in the pages of Avengers 26-27. However he is with the others floating motionless. Therefore this is better placed as an extra fight with the Phoenix that is not handled in the pages of Avengers and Secret Avengers. The best place would be here, IMHO.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 6-7)
Wolverine realises it is really Hope he pops his claws. Hope bribes and convinces Wolverine to help her with her plan. Wolverine agrees and the plane takes off with Wolverine at its helm.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 1-2)
Warbird drugged Kid Omega to get him back to his father Gladiator on the Shi'ar Homeworld. Kubark disagrees and uses the emergency escape pod to go back to Earth.
Apparently Warbird and Kid Gladiator are not aware of some teachers leaving the JGS, implying that they left before. Kid Gladiator even mentions Rachel being a teacher. Warbird (fierce warrior) is not seen in X-Men Legacy, possibly left before)
UNCANNY X-MEN 12 (4-10)
Tabula Rasa: Savage notices new outworlders arriving. It's the Avengers She-Hulk, Luke Cage and Thing. They are lured into a trap by a native Centipede. The X-Men Namor, Sunspot and Hepzibah contact the Queen of the River, Namor's love interest. Luke Cage and Thing smash the Centipede open, but now war larvae come out and they have to fight these. The X-Men are carried by knights of the Queen and hear the fight of the Avengers against the war larvae. Namor and Sunspot fly towards them.
This is a good point for the placings of Avengers vs X-Men 4 pages 8-10 and Wolverine and the X-Men 11 page 3. The story first concentrates on the separate adventures of the Avengers and X-Men first. This is the first clash. Let's assume that page 10 and 11 do not follow on each other. It's all a bit illogical and far stretched, but it can work. X-Men fly towards the Avengers, who were dealing with the larvae.
AVX 2 (page 11-20)
Latveria: Avengers have defeated Doombots. Dazzler attacks them and tells the others she found them. Mockingbird and Spider-Woman take on fights with Domino and Dazzler. Daredevil leaves and tries to find Hope. Leaves Spider-Man to fight Colossus. At the end of the fight Daredevil comes to Spider-Man and tells him that Hope is not there. The pair of Avengers leave Colossus behind.
This is probably intended to happen because Daredevil has heared from Captain America who got the call from Wolverine. However for chronology purposes it is better to think that Daredevil did not find Hope in that specific part of Latveria and that the fight scenes in Avengers vs X-Men 4 page 11 and Wolverine and the X-Men 11 take place at a later stage. These specific pages show battles on a grass field with all of them together and one with the city in the background (I suppose).
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 8)
Emma Frost tells Cyclops that more and more of teachers of Wolverine's school are joining them. Emma Frost takes over Toad's mind to get to Cerebra so she can see where Hope is really hiding. Emma Frost uses Cerebra to overlook the battles on the five spots all over the world.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 3 panel 1)
Savage Land: Magik strikes her sword at Captain America. Giant-man is standing at a vulcano. Warpath lies still on the ground, while Gambit prepares to go to battle.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 3 panel 2)
Tabula Rasa: Sunspot fights Thing, Luke Cage fights Namor and Hepzibah She-Hulk.
First Avengers and X-Men fight each other.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 3 panel 3)
Latveria: Dazzler fights Spider-Woman and Spider-Man fights Colossus with buildings nearby.
This probably leads into the fight in the field.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 9)
Wakanda: Danger holds Black Widow. Storm fights Black Panther with lightning. Rachel Grey stops speeding Quicksilver with a mindblast. Magma chases Iron Fist. Nemesis runs with a gun.
Avengers and X-Men fight outside. Since the fights in W&tX 11 happen inside, it's maybe better to place this one first. Also that fight in W&tXM leads directly into the call of Wolverine to Captain America.
AVX 5 (page 11-20)
Wakanda: Storm and Black Panther fight. In the end their marriage ring lies in the sand. The X-Men say to Storm there is no sign of Hope and they are pulling out.
As the rest of the AvX issues this is hard to place. In UXM 13 Storm tells that Black Panther knocked her out and that when she came out she noticed Danger evacuated her and Nemesis. Also Rachel telling Storm that there is no sign of Hope and they are pulling out is a rather strange one. A good find would be that Rachel admits to Iceman at Wundagore in her first panel in W&XM 11 that Hope's possibly scattered her signal and she is not in any of the locations. But she also reveals that they do not have to find her, but that hey have to make sure that the Avengers don't get her either. Possibly Rachel, Danger, Storm and Nemesis are stopped on her way out by the other Avengers and then and there Rachel came to the conclusion that they better
continue with fighting to block the Avengers from finding Hope as well. Minor but important detail that this fight also happened outside, while the W&tXM fights are inside the palace. Possibly their way out is through the palace.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 10)
Tabula Rasa: Hepzibah zaps Luke Cage. Namor fights Thing. Sunspot moves towards Luke Cage. A predator of Tabula Rasa catches all of them with its tentacles.
The fighting continues. One of the larvae of the Centipede seems to have grown and attacks all of them.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 11)
Latveria: Dazzler fights Spider-Woman. Mockingbird fights Domino. Spider-Man tangles Colossus in his web, while Daredevil kicks Colossus in the head.
This fight takes place in a field and has Doombots. Probably these are new Doombots to replace the defeated ones in AvsX 2.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 4)
Wundagore Mountain: Angel says no sign of Hope. He, Psylocke and Iceman encounter Hawkeye and Doc Strange. Iceman asks Rachel Grey whether they have more luck in Wakanda.
Wakanda: Rachel Grey answers to Iceman that Hope obviously knows how to scatter her signal, but that they have to keep the Avengers from finding her. Rachel Grey fights Black Widow in the mean time. Storm fights Iron Fist. Black Panther fights Nemesis.
Wundagore Mountain: Iceman acknowledges to Rachel Grey that is simple enough. Then he asks Rachel to get out of his head, because Red Hulk jumps towards him to break the man made of ice.
Wundagore fight happens before AvX 4 p.12 where Red Hulk smashes Iceman. Wakanda fight has moved to inside the palace.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 12)
Wundagore: Red Hulk smashes Iceman. Hawkeye shoots an arrow at Angel and misses. Psyclocke uses her psychic knive on Hawkeye. Magneto fights Doc Strange.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 13)
Savage Land: X-Man uses his mind to take over a dinosaurus to attack Giant-Man. Captain America is in hand to hand combat with Warpath. Magik uses a teleportation disc to stab her sword in Giant-Man's back. Captain America defeats Warpath, but then Gambit appears behind him.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 14 panel 1-2)
Emma Frost tells Cyclops there is no sign of Hope, but she found Captain America. Cyclops orders her to set a link so they can find out what Captain America knows. They only have to stop the Avengers from finding Hope until the Phoenix arrives.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 5-8)
Wolverine and Hope fly in a blackbird. Wolverine thinks back of Jean Grey when she became the Phoenix. Then the blackbird is shot down by the Shi'ar Death Commandos. Hope copied Wolverine's healing factor, so they both survive. When the Shi'ar Death Commandos attack, both fight back with claws (Hope has also borrowed these)
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 9-10)
Wundagore: Big fight between Red Hulk and Iceman. Doc Strange and Magneto fight. Hawkeye fires arrows at Angel, who dodges them all. Then Angel punches Hawkeye that hard that his glasses fall off.
This fight has to happen before AvX 5 where Hawkey shoots Angel in the guts. UXM 13-FB happens after this scene.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 11)
Wakanda: Avengers and X-Men fight in the palace. Iron Fist acknowledges that Rachel Grey was host of the Phoenix once.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 12 - 17 panel 3)
Wolverine and Hope fight the Shi'ar Death Commandos. Hope gets overconfident and is mortally wounded by the Flaw, while Shell is scraping the flesh of Wolverine's bones. Then the Phoenix Force kicks in from outer space and Hope defeats the Shi'ar Death Commandos in one blast. Wolverine pops his claws but is not able to kill Hope despite the flares. Then they walk away.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 17 panel 4 - 18 panel 2)
JGS School: Kitty Pryde has a hard job to teach the X-Students. The students look at the fights between the Avengers and the X-Men. Red Hulk is shown on a computer screen, while Kitty says that Rachel should watch her nine o'clock.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 18 panel 3)
Wakanda: Rachel holds Iron Fist telekinetically, while she blasts Black Panther with a tk-shot.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 18 panel 4)
Wundagore: Red Hulk jumps towards Iceman, while Angel watches.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 19 panel 1)
Wundagore: Kid Gladiator falls out of the sky straight into Red Hulk and punches him hard in the face. Iceman looks surprised.
AVX 5 FLASHBACK (page 1-10 panel 2)
Wundagore: Angel and Hawkeye fight. Angel makes a remark about Hawkeye staying while his team had left. Psylocke is there to help Angel, but Hawkeye blackmails them. He shoots an arrow point blank at Angel and wounds him in the stomach. Then Hawkeye says he needs immediate extraction.
Angel's remark about Hawkeye staying while his team had left is a bit odd for two reasons. Hawkeye was with the Avengers team on the Moon. Red Hulk snaps Psylocke's arm as mentioned and shown in UXM 13. In this issue there is no trace of Psylocke having her arm broken. Possible explanations. Hawkeye is extracted afterwards immediately as shown in this issue and also straight to the Moon. Angel has not seen things correctly as only part of Hawkeye's team had left. Also we could think of the staying behind that the team of Avengers moved to another part of Mount Wundagore.
UNCANNY X-MEN 13 FLASHBACK (page 6 panel 1)
Wakanda: Black Panther knocks out his wife Storm. When Storm came to, Danger had evacuated her and Nemesis.
This being the last moments of the fight of Storm, Nemesis and probably Danger in Wakanda. All other fighting scenes in Wakanda must be before.
This should be the last fighting scene in Wakanda. Black Panther is not on the Moon, nor is Storm or Danger or Nemesis. So this scene can be placed after Captain America's call if necessary.
UNCANNY X-MEN 13 FLASHBACK (page 6 panel 3)
Wundagore: Red Hulk snaps Psylocke's arm at Wundagore Mountain. Apparently Magneto spalked her arm before they gone back to the X-Diaspora.
This scene is probably one of the last of X-Men and Avengers fighting in Wundagore. This should be the last fighting scene in Wundagore as in all other panels Psylocke is unhurt. Also other scenes of Red Hulk should be before.
UNCANNY X-MEN 12 (page 11-15)
Tabula Rasa: Namor jumps unto Luke Cage, grabs him and throws him in the River. She-Hulk shouts at Namor, but Thing says to her to leave it as they have problems of their own. Hepzibah shoots with guns. Sunspot flies towards Thing, but before he can strike, Thing punches him away. She-Hulk and Hepzibah fight. In the River, under water, Namor and Luke Cage fight, it seems that Namor has the upper hand. She-Hulk has defeated Hepzibah, but is unaware of Sunspot standing behind her. Luckily for her Thing had grabbed a log and throws it on Sunspot, smashing him. When Thing asks She-Hulk where Namor is. Namor uses Luke Cage as a bludgeon, taking She-Hulk out of the fight.
If necessary we could have a pause here, but that is not what the story intended. Especially as Namor says in the next panel: "And now…I believe we have business to finish, Grimm etcetera.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 14 panel 3)
Savage Land: Captain America still holds unconscious Warpath in his hands, while he deflects Gambit's playing cards with his shield. In the mean time he is in contact with Iron Man through comm-link. Iron Man asks Captain America if he had any luck in finding the girl (through the comm-link). Captain America answers that it looks like a dead end and that Hope has fooled them all. Gambit attacks him with charged playing cards.
AVX 2 (page 1-9)
Savage Land: A long fight between Captain America and Gambit. In the end Captain America suckerpunches Gambit.
The start of this issue can easily follow panel 3 in AvX 4 on page 14. Captain America says (in his comm-link?) that Hope is not there either and that they are wasting their time. Gambit attacks him with (other) playing cards.
AVX 2 (page 10 panel 1)
Savage Land: Captain America stands. Gambit lies on the ground, unconscious. No physical contact.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 14 panel 4-5 - page 15 panel 1)
Savage Land: Iron Man talks to Captain America through comm-link. Maybe they were in contact all the time. Iron Man tells there is not much time left but the advantage is that this is not the first time earth encounters the Phoenix. Iron Man builds a Phoenix Killer. Captain America continues his talk with Iron Man and asks how much time they have left.
Apparently he thinks Gambit is now defeated at his feet. Iron Man even asks in panel 1 of page 15 "You following me Cap?", maybe implying he hears some ruckus in the background.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 15 panel 2)
Savage Land: Captain America tells Iron Man he does not understand all the technic mambo jambo. Find the girl Hope that he understands. Captain America smashes Gambit's face with his shield. Something in Gambit's head cracks. He asks Iron Man to give him a second…
Apparently Captain America sees Gambit arisen and punches him in the head with his shield.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 15 panel 3)
Savage Land: Iron Man says he's disappointed in Captain America for not being able to do two things at the same time. Captain America says to hold that thought, because he's getting a…
The story intends to let Captain America have the message from Wolverine. But story wise it may be better to believe that he
has to fight Gambit as depicted in W&tXM 11. He does not finish his sentence.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 19 panel 2)
Savage Land: Captain America punches Gambit. Something cracks in Gambit's neck. Captain America's beeper says "be-doop".
AVX 2 (page 10 panel 2)
Savage Land: Captain America gets the device out of his pouch. The device says "be-doop".
It could be that the device be-doops for the second or third time when Captain America gets it out of his pouch.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 19 panel 3)
Savage Land: Captain America holds an unconscious Gambit in his hand, while he looks at his Avengers device. He says to Tony: Well, I'll be… Tony, please contact all the other teams and have them pull back and rendezvous at the tower. New plan. We don't have to chase Hope anymore. Tony says to him: You found her? He says to Tony: No but I did just learn where she's headed.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 15 panel 4)
Savage Land: Giant-Man still fighting something. Warpath lies motionless on the ground. Captain America holds Gambit in his fist. Something goes "be-doop". Captain America says to Tony:Well, I'll be… Tony, please contact all the other teams and have them pull back
and rendezvous at the tower. New plan. We don't have to chase Hope anymore. Tony says to him: You found her?
If necessary we could think the be-doop sounds comes from Giant-Man's device. For the rest exactly the same text as in W&tXM
19 panel 3.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 15 panel 5)
Savage Land: Captain America says to Tony: No but I did just learn where she's headed.
Exactly the same scene and wording as in W&tX 11 page 19 panel 3, no comment about the spare uniform.
AVX 2 (page 10 panel 3)
Savage Land: Captain America says to Tony: Well, I'll be… Tony, please contact all the other teams and have them pull
back and rendezvous at the tower.
This is exact the same text as in W&tXM 11 page 19 panel 3.
AVX 2 (page 10 panel 4)
Savage Land: Captain America takes his torn mask off and says to Tony: New plan. We don't have to chase Hope anymore. And can someone get in my locker and grab my spare uniform.
This is not exactly the same text as in W&tXM 11 page 19 panel 3. The comment about the uniform is new.
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 19 panel 4-5)
Wolverine is seen with his Avengers device. He is the one who contacted Captain America that Hope is with him. Then he hides his device again, Hope unaware what he has just done.
UNCANNY X-MEN 12 (page 16-18)
Tabula Rasa: Namor and Thing start the ultimate fight between the two of them. Shock waves go through Tabula Rasa. Both of them really long for this fight. As they are evenly matched it could go on for hours. Savage jumps from the trees.
This scene follows on the previous pages of UXM and continues in the following pages, but if needed these can be unlogical pauses.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 15 panel 6)
Emma Frost who has built a psychic link with Captain America, of which Captain America is unaware says: "Scott, they know".
WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN 11 (page 20)
JGS School: As Quinten Quire sighs that Avengers and X-Men are fighting each other all over the world, he's stuck in the books at school. Then the Shi'ar land on their front lawn. Kitty and the Students look out the window, where they see Gladiator demanding the X-Men to tell him where his son is.
AVENGERS VS X-MEN 4 (page 16 - 18 panel 2)
Wolverine and Hope attack AIM to get a space ship to travel to the Moon. They leave Earth.
AVENGERS 26 (pages 11-20)
Beast is angry for not having stopped the Phoenix. Protector finds out that Thor's hammer contains traces of the Phoenix energy just as the Phoenix cage would do. Again Thor goes full heads into battle with the Phoenix Force. He actually pisses the Phoenix off but is able to steal power of the Phoenix. When the Avengers want to bring the captured power back to Iron Man on Earth, Protector betrays them and says that he needs that power to bring it back to Hala. He shoots at the Avengers. Ms. Marvel addresses that Beast did not mean anything with his remark about the Kree homeworld, but that he is upset. And with everything they've been through here. Herewith she implies the Secret Avengers issues 26-28.
AVENGERS 27
Protector brings the captured piece of the Phoenix Force to the Supreme Intelligence. Protector finds out that the Supreme Intelligence has no intention to save the Earth from Phoenix. He just want to use this portion of the power to bring ultimate glory to the Kree-empire. Protector can not believe this and he attacks the Supreme Intelligence and take the portion of the Phoenix power. In the mean time the Avengers see themselves in their shuttle set course to a blazing sun. Luckily Thor knows to turn the tide and uses his hammer to get them away from the sun. As Protector flees from the Kree, he meets the Avengers again. The Avengers take the portion of the Phoenix power and say to him to never return to Earth. The Avengers leave Hala to return to Earth. Protector is hunted by an army of Accusers, but manages to escape in a space ship. On Earth the crystal that Annie received from Protector flares up.
UNCANNY X-MEN 12 (page 19)
Tabula Rasa: Savage stands suddenly before Thing and Namor. Savage thinks that this is foreplay and that Namor and Thing are going to copulate now. As Savage has never seen our species mate, he wants to follow it up close and personal. Thing and Namor do not know what to say. Then Magik appears and says to Namor he has to come as they found Hope. Namor steps away and admits that Magik's arrival is most timely. Savage asks Thing if he is going to mate with something else, otherwise he is going to do some other research.
If necessary we could have a very short pause between the panel of the shocked Thing and Namor and the panel of Magik appearing.
UNCANNY X-MEN 12 (page 20)
Namor and Magik step out of the portal created by Magik to meet with their team members. Cyclops says that the goose chase is over. That Hope split her signal, but that they know their real destination now. Namor asks where Hope is. Cyclops says the Moon. Colossus says that it is familiar, the Moon, the Phoenix. Cyclops admits it scares him, he doesn't like the echoes either. But he sees it as a second chance. Then Magik teleports them away. The last panel shows the Phoenix flying towards a planet or a moon.
The Phoenix in the last panel does not fly towards our moon, but to some nearby moon, star or planet.
Re: AVX chronology
I know its been a while and you guys are mainly not doing this but: can I ask an issue based reading order? I'd really appreciate it, thank you!

Re: AVX chronology
I was aware of that site (and others as well) but I thought that I would try a shot here, as the people running the site and/or assisting with orders are probably better suited to fulfill my asking, rather than 1 guy on a 3rd party "reading order" site. (also based on the comments (not just in this case), his orders should be revisited at least one more time, as there seems a few (or more) errors in them, but he tend to avoid that kind of approach and just move forward with other contents.)
Re: AVX chronology
So anyone can help me out ?

Re: AVX chronology
Well, the answer would most likely be the same as the answer that Clive Reston provided, when you asked for a Secret Empire reading order. It's not really what we do here. However, if you want to propose a different reading order than the one I linked to above, you're welcome to post it here.
Share what you know, or what you think. You might get a response.

Re: AVX chronology
Hey!
This is indeed not a forum/site you are looking for when you want to read the issues the convenient way. I suggests you take a look at Travis Starnes CMRO, where you can read all the issues from the golden age up till almost the recent comics (It gets updated daily and you will find a nice little community too, with cool interactions) or you could try the Unofficial Marvel Universe Reading Order on the marvel wiki, which is made by a user named Ryangut. It gets updated less, but when there is one you know you will have something to do while waiting for another. Also I am a contributor as well on the unofficial order. I am mainly correcting, but also adding left out issues and reforming the order. However I am only in the golden age as of now, so the main part is vastly different than the ones I am currently reading and working on. They are mainly only design things, but you can find one - two left out or missplaced issues, but it is still the best I've found. Also the Unofficial one is non major-spoiler chronology based, so if you don't want to jump back into the 60-90s constantly, once you get to the 2000s issues this is the order for you. Keep in mind that the marvel one is just a list and a little bland if you look it that way, while the CMRO is good for reading opinions about certain issues, sometimes the order is little weird when it comes to continuity. There are like 900 reading orders besides these out there, but I find the two I listed the best for a thing you are looking for. Have fun and tell me if you liked them or not!

Re: AVX chronology
Hawkeye is injured and captured by the XMen in the first part of AvX #7, where the Avengers take away Hope from the Phoenix Five.
But then, you have Avengers v4 #28 & 29 happening after that, which has the Avengers being based in Wakanda, and Hawkeye appears alongside the Avengers in those issues, he even speaks with them.
Also, I realise that A4 #29 is concurrent with W&X #13, and W&X #14 happens right after 13
In the second part of AvX #7 the Avengers are shown based in Wakanda.
Further down the line, in New Avengers #28, Hawkeye is again a prisoner of the X-Men.
So I guess that all of this chunk is troublesome because I don't think there's a point in continuity where Hawkeye can be with the Avengers in Wakanda after the Avengers take Hope away from the Phoenix Five. Perhaps you've already knew this and decided the best place for all these issues is its current placement.
