Marvel Generations connects the many heroic legacies of the Marvel Universe into one 10 issue anthology series. Although Generations has the feel of an “event” it’s more of a thematic tissue, tying together characters who have shared titles or roles.
For example, in the first Generations issue released, Amadeus Cho (The Totally Awesome Hulk) teams up with Bruce Banner (The Incredible Hulk). Essentially it’s a Marvel Team-Up between the old guard and the modern age.
Generations is time agnostic to a degree, with a brief reference setting things up at the tail end of Secret Empire but before Marvel Legacy.
Below you’ll find all the related comics and the best reading order as you transition into the all-new Marvel Legacy.

Why isnt the captain americas issue the last one in the reading order?? That one actually has an ending with all of the young ones together, whereas all the other ones just end when the young one disappears from the old ones’s timeline.
I used WiKi to get the correct order as this one seems messed up and no explanation why the read order is not the published order.

So do I need to know what’s been going on in Secret Empire before I read these? And do I need to read them all or can I just pick and choose the ones I want?
Annoying that Captain Marvel gets two issues and there is no Nova issue. Novas getting no love.
