I will represent the reading order in four different perspectives depending on the readers desire for thoroughness.

#1 Main Story Reading Order

The most streamlined example of the story. The main story chapters and any comics that should be integral to the overall plot and story arc.

#2 Story and In-Story Reading Order

The full story that provides greatest contextual exploration of the movements, motivations and actions of the characters within the actual story itself. This will include the main story chapters PLUS related tie-ins.

#3 Main Story and Official Tie-Ins Reading Order

The full story as intended by the publishing company. Includes the main story and any official tie-ins and crossovers as identified through publisher dictated checklists, numbering or official banner heads.

#4 Main and Elaborated Story Reading Order

Everything! The earliest indicators of the main story to any epilogues. The flimsiest references or character appearances in any issue are captured here.
