    I'm very happy to learn today that new English version printings of the complete Sailormoon series are coming, including the prequel Code Name Sailor V. The Mixx/Tokyopop versions are very hard to find on ebay except at very high prices.

    I did buy Vols 1, 11 and 12 of the most recent Japanese reprinting, but I'm very happy to finally be able to get the whole series in English. And hopefully this will pave the way for a rerelease (or redub) of the whole anime on DVD.

    I hope someone who frequents this thread can help me. After a long time I pulled out Ultimate Alliance 2 on the weekend and started playing through the story again. All of a sudden I have an overwhelming urge to read the marvel civil war series. Is it in a collection of TPB's? If so then what order do I need to get/read them in? I've surfed the net for a bit and I can't come up with a sold answer to my question so I thought I'd ask someone here who's opinion I can trust.

    There's a lot of Civil War trade paperbacks. Lots and lots.

    You can read the main story in the Civil War TPB and leave it at that.

    All the stories in the other TPBs take place either before, in between chapters, in between pages, inbetween panels! or after the six or seven issues of the series collected in the Civil War TPB.

    So I don't think there's any particularly good order to read the story in except to say read the main book first, it has all the important plot points, and then read the tie-ins that might interest you. (Eg there's a big status quo change for Spider-Man about two chapters into the main book, but you need to read the Spider-Man Civil War TPBS to find out how it affects him and his supporting cast).

    Thank You

    SO the main story is only in one TPB? Thats an easy starting point

    Yep, start at the Mark Millar/Steve McNiven Civil War series.

    Marvel Crossovers (and DC too looking at Darkest Night) tend these day to really be a miniseries that tell the story and the other existing books are just tie-ins. Unlike the old days when you had to read part 1 in book a, part 2 in book b, etc

    Yes that's the whole main story. Just checked out the reading order on Wikipedia and it's all over the place. You are best off with just that book.
