Sorry if this has been covered before. I searched, but could not find a reference to this discussion.....

Anyway, how does the Spiderman CW tie-in to the Back in Black to the WWH stories. I saw one of the WWH covers with Spidey's CW suit. WWH is *right* after CW, right?

Boy, It's hard to fit Spidey and New Avengers into WWH. I'm tending to think WWH happens between pages of a book, because there is no demarcation where you can logically slip WWH anywhere. AI is obvious, because you get WWH happening in issue #4, but New Avengers? It could happen while they are watching TV in Stranges place, and the offer for help is made, so Spidey goes to FF Tower.

Which brings up a relevant question. Did all the villains evacuate from New York in WWH, when the 24 hours curfew was given? It may explain why Hood got such a strong foothold if there was nobody around to muscle him. I also think the Hood is a Skrull taking advantage of the CW and WWH effects on the security in NY.

And I think I've seen the Rhino, like, a thousand times during CW. I remember Rhino being pummeled by somebody, and then him showing up in a wheelchair at the Stiltman funeral. How many times did Rhino show up?


But Yeah. WWH is about 4 issues (months) after CW.

Fantastic Four has the same problem. Must happen right after the Fantastic 6 return from saving Eternity or whatever?

Iron Man is another. At the end of one recent IM, we see Dugan whining for Iron Man, then the next book, all is well.

I mean, I can understand the need for some ambiguity in these story lines, but it would be nice to at least see where they touch together.

For Spider-Man, WWH takes place right after his crappy storyline, but before his pointless story arc. Hope that helps.

...I'm guessing he means after BIB, before OMD.

Trying to figure out Marvel timelines is like trying to fight an obedience disk!

And I know that is intentional on the part of Marvel. But still...... Like a moth to a flame.....
