The closest thing we're getting to a handbook in March 2011:

AVENGERS, THOR & CAPTAIN AMERICA: OFFICIAL INDEX TO THE MARVEL UNIVERSE #11
Written by VARIOUS
Return with us to the Silver and Golden Ages as the chronicle of the Marvel Universe continues its coverage of the Avengers (from AVENGERS #373), Thor (from 1998’s THOR #1), and Captain America (from both CAPTAIN AMERICA #417 and 1944’s CAPTAIN AMERICA COMICS #35). Watch the Marvel universe’s history unfold month by month as we provide synopses for dozens of individual comics, including back-up strips — introducing the characters, teams, places and equipment that appeared within with vital information about first appearances, where they last showed up and where they appeared next!
64 PGS./Rated A ...$3.99

I suspect this is going to go on a bit longer than the 14 issues of the previous series; even if there were 50 issues covered per title per index, the only title that could get wrapped up by #14 would be Captain America Comics, and that title seems to be holding at about two issues per index for now (there's 78 issues total of the original run including Captain America's Weird Tales, so Index #11 would need to cover 5 issues to reach that title's half way mark, barring any last minute reshuffling of #9-10 of course).

Oh, just noticed one more thing: part of that copy should be changed. Captain America Comics is certainly Golden Age, but the other titles solicited are post-Silver Age by any sane standards.
