User blog:Nausiated/Expanded Histories

I've been a pretty busy guy recently. Those who have been following my progress might have noticed I took a bit of a pause going through my summarization of Timely Comics published in 1944 to create expanded histories of various wartime characters. And by expanded histories, I mean documenting all of their chronological appearances.

It's been a bit of a challenge, but I think I've done a pretty good job of it. By referencing my own summaries (I've been keeping tabs on all character appearances) and referencing the the Marvel Chronology Project and Marvel's Official Indexes (both VERY excellent resources if you're inclined to look stuff up) and piece together the best chronology possible.

So far I've chronicled the histories of: Captain America Bucky Human Torch Toro Sub-Mariner Red Skull

From their early lives all the way up to their chronological appearances up to the end of 1943. The Skull, I've actually went through and have done everything up until his suspended animation in 1945, because he has less appearances than the other characters. You might want to watch out for that one because I cover the whole Red Skull miniseries (I've marked it with spoiler alerts just in case).

These summaries cover all their appearances in original publications in the 1940s and all the Marvel Era "flashback" wartime stories and appearances covering all publications to date (whenever applicable of course).

I will be continuing to update these characters appearances with each year of World War II up until 1945's last chronological appearance of Steve Rogers as Captain America during World War II (Which was July 1945 for those keeping score at home).

But I still have a bit of 1944 to dig through first. I'm going through publications from the Fall of that year so I should hopefully be done soon. Upon completion of 1944 also expect to see nearly full chronologies for Terry Vance, Deadline Dawson, and Dr. Watson as those characters stopped appearing in original stories following.
