Out today. Here's what's in it.

Amazing Spider-Man #s 367-401
Amazing Spider-Man Annual #27,28
Amazing Sider-Man Super Special #1
Iron Man vol.1 #s 300-332
Iron Man Annual # 15
Age of Innocence: The Rebirth of Iron Man #1

Uncanny X-Men #s 338-375, -1
Uncanny X-Men Annual '97

Also included is just over a page covering the Crossing/Timeslide chronology.
Also, I noticed a small error in the notes from Amazing Spider-Man #380. It says that part 14 of Maximum Carnage is Spider-Man Unlimited #1, but it's supposed to be SMU #2.

Great as usual. Found an error in first go-through. Sunstreak is mentioned as having her final appearance in IM #331. However, she has since appeared in several issues of Avengers: The Initiative.

According to the Official Handbook, Star Trek/X-Men (mentioned in Proteus' profile), Star Trek The Next Generation/X-Men: Second Contact (mentioned in Kang's profile), and the Top Cow "Devil's Reign" crossover (mentioned in Mephisto's and Jennifer Kale's profile) are all in continuity. Yet none of these are listed in the Index.
So what is the current word on these books? Canon or not?
