Okay, this is my latest attempt at compiling a timeline for the adventures of Solomon Kane, incorporating some of the material by other writers published in Savage Sword of Conan and other Marvel magazines. Please let me know if it's any good. I've placed Kane's birth in 1554.
1578: The One Black Stain
1587: Moon of Skulls
1594: Castle of the Undead (DRACULA LIVES #3) Rattle of Bones Castle of the Devil The Dragon at Castle Frankenstein (SSOC #22) The Cold Hands of Death (SSOC #25) Retribution in Blood (SSOC #26)
1599: Blades of the Brotherhood, AKA The Blue Flame of Vengeance
1601: Red Shadows
1604: Skulls in the Stars The Right Hand of Doom The Silver Beast Beyond Torkertown (SSOC #14)
1605: The Hills of the Dead Children of Asshur Hawks of Basti The Footfalls Within The Return of Sir Richard Grenville Wings in the Night
1612: Solomon Kane's Homecoming Death's Dark Riders

Did you exclude the pastiches written by Gianluigi Zuddas on purpose? I know they're not really good, especially the first one, and raise some historical concerns but they're supposed to be Solomon's first and last adventure. And what about Paul Di Filippo's "Observable Things"? (not read yet)

According to Wikipedia "Paul Di Filippo's "Observable Things", as narrated by a young Cotton Mather, tells of Solomon Kane coming to the aid of the colonists in New England during King Philip's War." It took me ages to locate the story and I've not read it yet. I've found it in an anthology of alternative history called "Conqueror fantastic".
