Earth 199999: The Marvel Movieverse

As a universe primarily depicted in the movies, this one features dvds as well as comics. At the moment, it’s simple enough that this reading/viewing order is barely needed, but since it’s only going to get more complex – and since release order already fails to match actual chronology – I thought this might prove useful.

If you would prefer a vastly more detailed version, I suggest you look at this site.

Captain America: The First Avenger
The film on DVD. Takes place primarily during World War Two.
Captain America: First Vengeance
comic set before and in parallel to the movie, but best read after.
Iron Man
The film on DVD.
Iron Man 2: Public Identity
Tie-in comic occuring between the two Iron Man films.
Iron Man 2
The film on DVD.
The Incredible Hulk
The film on DVD. According to the Director’s Commentary on Iron Man 2, Tony Stark’s appearance in this film is his third appearance, chronologically.
Thor
The film on DVD. Dialogue in the film clearly places it after both Iron Man 2 and The Incredible Hulk.
