With the MCU's own Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars films on the way, this is a timely, complete way to read the comics source material in the right order, front to back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo these need to be read in a specific order?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — read Avengers: Time Runs Out first, then Avengers: Secret Wars.
