I would just sort them by month and read consecutively by month first. In a given month, I'd break them down by title with Warriors of Plasm being first, Dark Dominion being second, Good Guys third.... and so on. Once you get the big three knocked out in that order, wouldn't think the order would matter so much. As far as I'm concerned the books came out in the wrong order anyway. Defiant1 |

If you want to do it by strict continuity here's some help divided by "crossover" plotlines: Beginning of Plasm (a good starting point): Plasm 0-4 Plasm Graphic Novel Demons of Dark Hinge (happens between DD 3 and 4): Plasm 6-7 Good Guys 2 Nudge saga: Plasm 8-9 Dark Dominion 4 Good Guys 3 and 4 Wardancer 4 Charlemagne 4 Plasm 10-11 Charlemagne/War Dancer: Wardancer 1 and 2 OR Charlemagne 0 and 1 Charlemagne 2 Good Guys 6 and 7 Wardancer 3 and 4 Charlemagne 3 and 4 Wardancer 5 OR Charlemagne 5 Wardancer 6 ANY Plasm character appearances that is not in Plasm happens after Plasm 9. Dog of War 2 happens before Prudence and Caution 1 and the last issue of Good Guys (Glory cameo) happens in between Plasm 12 and 13. Most non-crossover issues it's hard to say what order they would relate to each other in. |

I didn't realize they crossed over so much, but I focused mainly on the Good Guys in the very beginning. I picked up other issues, but I didn't pay as much attention to the other titles until Dogs of War, Charlemane, and War Dancer began.

In compiling the credits for each issue, I began to realize there were some really important crossovers that I should have been following closer, but I wasn't. Defiant1 |

I picked up other issues, but I didn't pay as much attention to the other titles until Dogs of War, Charlemane, and War Dancer began. Their was a ton of x-overs. It was an extremely interconnected universe but the titles still stood on their own pretty well, for the most part, and not every appearance of character was neccesary to enjoy that character's story (like Valiant's Unity their was A LOT of different ways to reread certain plotlines and crossovers). It was interesting that when they did Broadway it was the opposite approach with a lot of concepts that more-or-less stood on their own. The only real crossover they had would've have been in the next Fatale storyline that was supposed to feature the Technomancers and Star Seed (which, of course, was never published). |
