Canon notes for Resurrection, Reconstruction, and Redemption
For those of you true believers following along at home, here's where our fic departs from the 616 timeline.
Civil War & Front Line: After CW #7 and Front Line #11
Captain America #25
Iron Man #16
New Avengers: somewhere around 26/27, where Bendis starts with the flashbacks and everything gets insanely complicated. Luke, Peter, Danny, et al. are staying in Strange's sanctum starbucks, but the pro-reg trap/the fight with the Mighty Avengers/the Brother Voodoo cameo/the trip to rescue Echo/Clint showing up never happened. Echo, for the record? Died in Japan. Also, Wolverine has gone off to be macho somewhere (possibly he's with the X-Men, bothering Scott), because we already have too many characters, and he's hard to write.
Mighty Avengers: somewhere in issue 1 --the team (sans Natasha) is assembled, but the whole plotline involving She-Ultron was too complicated to fit into our backstory, so, much as we love genderswapped Ultron!Tony, she isn't in this timeline.
Backstory/character details taken from: Tales of Suspense, Iron Man vols 1-4, Captain America vols 3 and 5, Avengers vol 3, New Avengers, Amazing Spiderman, Civil War and its associated tie-ins, especially Front Line 11, Iron Man/Captain America: Casualties of War and Civil War: The Confession, and Immortal Iron Fist.
Familiarity with the events of CA #25 and CW is strongly encouraged (reading misleading excerpts on s_d carefully edited to make Iron Man and Reed Richards look even worse than they actually did does
not count). And you pretty much have to have read Civil War: The Confession.
