Everything I can find says no, its not canon. It was a tie in to a Sat. morning cartoon show from 1983.

I placed the others, but I am having trouble finding a spot for this. Its fairly early in the new mutants team, and while kitty pryde is still called sprite.

my guess is it's one of those issues which fits exactly nowhere. based on the publishing date I would place it (for now) either between uxm 168 & new mutants 4 (which is not exactly good place because of Logan's & cyclops whereabouts) and we'll see if it stays there when we get there. how's that?

Hey guys.

Dunno if this has been covered already, but I'm wondering if the gap between Magik LS #1-4 (entry 4854 - 4857) and New Mutants v1 # 14 (entry 4970) shouldn't be closed up.

Not only do the opening and closing scenes of the Magik mini match up with the opening scene in NM 14, Illyana in both stories thinks about how it has been one year since she escaped from Limbo and how it ties in with her birthday. The only hitch is that in Magik, she refers to it being her 14th b/day while in NM it's her 15th, but that can easily be put down to Yana getting her numbers mixed up or some such.

What do you guys think?

Why is Spider-Man 3 in it's location in the Order.
The reason I ask is Thor and Iron Man are both shown as part of the Avengers at this point. Why are they there? From everything I've read up to this point, they are still separated from the team.

Do you mean the Annual? Because ASM #3 is pretty early in the order.

I'm sorry, I did mean the annual.

The answer is in the comic:
"Iron Man and Thor left other pressing matters to answer our summons".
They were on the leave of absence but they were part of the team the whole time, they never left. That's why they were ask to come to choose new member of the team. Makes totally sense to me.
