    Seven Soldiers of Victory

    A buddy of mine is loaning me these in the next day or so, but from what I've read here and elsewhere, you kind of need to read them all in a certain order to get the most out of them.

    Can anyone give me a rundown on the order?

    According to Morrison in his intro to the vol.1 tpb, all of the issues can be read in their release order. So, dont read Zatanna 2 until you've read all the Number 1's in the crossover series.

    However, possible spoilers below:

    Morrison also said part of the fun of the seven soldiers of victory is that there's no direct correlation between any of the issues in the series.


    How true that is near the end? I don't know. Trade waiting is now biting me in the ass.

    I think you can read them by "series" or by release order.

    Well, from the looks of the checklist I just found (turns out he gave me the 0 issue already) half the books didn't start until the other half finished, so I'll assume that the reading order is the one stated here.

    Thanks for pointing that out though

    Sorry to hear the trade waiting thing is biting you on the ass though

    You're supposed read them in the order they're released, but I think you can read them however you wish. Just be aware that little things from one series bleed over into others, but it's not 100% necessary to enjoy each series by themselves. However, I would recommend reading Seven Soldiers of Victory #0 first as it sets up the entire project.

    Well, reading the 0 issue first was my plan

    Since I'm getting the whole lot in one go, I wanted to know what order to read each issue so I'd see the little things that bleed over. I knew you can read each mini on it's own, but I want to get the full story with as little confusion as possible.

    Thanks for the help guys

    It'll be pretty obvious as you're reading where the "bleeding" occurs. One of the nice things about this series is how it gradually unfolds through the course of the mutiple series.

    So don't worry about missing anything. Just enjoy each series, it's some damn good comic book making.

    This is some great stuff. However you choose to read it, you'll enjoy it.
