Marvel Timeline 1944-Present

My own Marvel Universe timeline. It needs updated. But, I would love to read your thoughts or suggestions! Most of the "Disney+ Marvel Timeline" MCU years are when the events take place, they're not release dates. To make it simple, if the year doesn't match release date then it's the timeline year. But those with the release date I'm treating as the timeline year, sometimes happening on a different timeline and/or in a separate universe.

Cool

Thanks! It's been updated now.

The X-Men timeline is incorrect btw.

Questions because I'm confused:

* Why are the Affleck/Garner movies placed in 2014?
* Why are the Jane/Stevenson movies placed in 2016?
* Why isn't Fant4stic in the section with the Tim Story FF movies?
* Why are Legion and The Gifted with the MCU stories instead of with the X-Men stories?
* Why is Venom 1 not in its year of release, its year of setting (2018-2019), **or** near the other Venomverse films?

Comments because I'm certain:

* Iron Fist S1 happens before Civil War.
* AoS S4 happens after Homecoming.
* Black Widow and Black Panther both happen *right* after Civil War.
* There's an 8-month gap between seasons of Cloak & Dagger; the 1st season happens before Jessica Jones S2, and the 2nd season happens around the same time as Daredevil S3.
* Ragnarok also happens around the same time as Daredevil S3, except for the mid-credit scene of Thanos finding the Asgardians.
* AoS S6 is set in 2019. Its sequential placement doesn't change from that, though.
* Loki spins off *immediately* from Endgame; it happens "before" WandaVision.
* The causality of the X-Men films is backwards here. The original trilogy and The Wolverine happen before the future scenes of Days of Future Past, and the other movies happen *after* the history gets changed.
* Deadpool 1 and New Mutants both happen before Logan. (Technically, so does Deadpool 2, but of course Wade spoils the ending.)
* Madame Web is set in 2003.
* Multiverse of Madness happens before Hawkeye.
* Secret Invasion happens before The Marvels.
* A one-shot (Peter's To-Do List) and two webseries (WHiH Newsfront and The Daily Bugle) are missing.
* Literally everything that released this year is missing: YFNSM S1, Brave New World, Born Again S1, Thunderbolts, Ironheart, First Steps, Eyes of Wakanda, & Zombies.

TwoMomsX22025-11-13 03:45

THANK YOU! Most of this is taken from someone else's timeline. I haven't gotten around to updating since Agatha. Question, does everything after Agatha go in release order? Is all the new stuff that you mentioned on Disney+? I haven't checked in awhile haha. Second question, X-Men...lol. So it goes trilogy and Wolverine first? Then the newer movies? For watching ease I felt it's better to group the trilogy and only put Wolverine Origins in between the newer movies instead of splitting them up too much. I grouped Deadpool together to flow into Deadpool Wolverine. New Mutants I wasn't sure. Ultimately this is a loosely based timeline/watch order. Some stuff I grouped together, some stuff like Madame Web I didn't know the event dates. Anything placed wrong is likely because I wasn't sure, so I placed it with its release year. Since some stuff isn't Canon I place it in a watch order, like Daredevil and Elektra before the series and Punisher movies before the series. Would you be willing to edit this with your info? If not then thank you for all the info it's very helpful, I would like my list to be accurate but also user friendly? If possible lol.

CaptHayfever2025-11-13 04:15

I'm glad to help!

> does everything after Agatha go in release order?

I'm afraid not:

* Eyes of Wakanda goes *first*, before the first Captain America movie even.
* Ironheart goes right after Ms. Marvel.
* Zombies is a spinoff from What If season 1 (but I advise watching it after Ironheart).
* Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man is a multiverse story; it takes place in 2016, but not in the main timeline.
* First Steps takes place in another universe. Most people are putting it last for now, though, for the narrative properties.
* The others are all after Agatha, but in this order: Born Again, Brave New World, Thunderbolts.

> Is all the new stuff you mentioned on Disney+

By now, yes! First Steps got added last week.

> So it goes trilogy and Wolverine first? Then the newer movies?

Almost. First Class [edited to correct typo] & Origins first, then trilogy & Wolverine, then Days of Future Past & the rest.

> Would you be willing to edit this with your info?

I can't edit other people's posts, I'm afraid.

TwoMomsX22025-11-13 07:37

Oh first steps is an X-Men movie? Or do you mean first class? I guess I'm confused on how the future is changed. Does Future Past change the trilogy and instead make it the outcomes of the rest? So like this,
First Class,
Origins,
Trilogy,
Wolverine,
Future Past - Phoenix,
New Mutants,
Logan?

Thank you for all the other info. I'll have to do some tweaking when I have time and repost an edit. Timeline-ing is hard lol. Oh what I meant by edit was for you to copy my timeline and then rearrange things and then comment your revised version, that way I better understand without all the questions. Because now I won't quit till it's fixed lol.

CaptHayfever2025-11-13 09:07

I meant First Class, yes. (Sorry about the typo; I'll edit it.) The X-Men sequence you have now is right!

TwoMomsX22025-11-14 08:09

UPDATED! How'd I do? Lol

CaptHayfever2025-11-14 08:22

HUGE improvement, nice! I'm just noticing a couple other things:

* I'm confused about the 2003 Hulk movie. Why is it labeled 1969?
* The Consultant has to happen after Thor; Coulson is in too much of a hurry before that to stop for multiple sit-down meals in the same place & take a side mission.
* Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man needs an asterisk; it explicitly isn't the main MCU timeline.
* I think you overcorrected on Secret Invasion. It starts in early November, so it would be *right* before The Marvels.

TwoMomsX22025-11-14 09:43

Made the adjustments. Now for some explanations. Hulk was 1969 because that's the year it took place, but since it might be confusing I changed it to its release date. Venom-Verse, since Tom Holland makes a cameo in Venom 1, and because it's close enough to Tom Holland's Spider-Verse, I consider it canon with the MCU. Why is the Daredevil/Elektra and Punisher movies in the MCU section? I put them there as a sorta intro to their respective series, same with Hulk 2003 since it's also not MCU canon. What's next? Placing those 2 WebSeries you mentioned lol. Can you tell me their full titles, timeline placement and the technical years they take place? Thanks for your help BTW. This was a watch order just for me. But spending so much time and research to figure it all out made me want to share with others seeking what I once sought out, an almost perfect chronological Marvel watch list that includes almost everything worth watching. Please feel free to continue informing me of any possible mistakes! I'll continue to update with other Marvel releases.

CaptHayfever2025-11-14 16:45

The *prologue* of Hulk is set around 1969, but that's when Bruce is a little kid.

The other two webseries:

* WHiH Newsfront: The first 5 episodes are set in 2015, right before Ant-Man. The last 5 episodes are set in 2016, right before Civil War.
* The Daily Bugle: There's sorta 3 "batches" of episodes. The first 2 batches (with Jameson & Betty) overlap the end of Far From Home & the beginning of No Way Home; I just put them between the two. The 3rd batch (with neither Jameson nor Betty) is actually about Morbius, so it's not in the main timeline.

TwoMomsX22025-11-14 17:28

Oh really, about Morbius? That's cool. Is that before or after the movie? Probably after since they're probably reporting on the events of the movie?

CaptHayfever2025-11-14 23:56

It seems to be concurrent; go ahead & place it after the movie.

TwoMomsX22025-11-15 01:37

I already have! Lol. I did earlier, I looked up the Bugle series because you said "3 batches of epidodes". I saw there are 3 seasons so I just placed 1 each after Far From Home, before No Way Home and after Morbius. Now the list seems accurate and easy flowing enough. Thanks for all the editors notes haha. You helped a lot. You and Google are true Marvel Heros!

CaptHayfever2025-11-15 04:08

Thanks! Again, I'm glad to help! :)

Looks alot like my own list. You did a great job!

TwoMomsX22025-11-14 18:01

Thank you! I'll update it when new stuff comes out, when I remember or have the time lol. Thinking about posting the color coded picture ones I have, like I did for my Star Wars Cinematic Timeline
