Im hoping someone might be able to help with the numbering on the Hellbalzer GNs.
 Ive read all of the Ennis run and Jenkins, Swamp Thing too. I have never read the Delano run.
There seem to be 4 GNs available by Deleno, anyone know what issues these include.
They are
Original sins
Family man
Fear Machine
The Devin you know

Im also looking for anyone thet might have a copy of Mam Tors Four Feet from a Rat. Ive got in touch with them to no avail, and I dont want to download>

Any help appreciated

Cheers

Original Sins: The first 9 issues or so. A good mix of stories.
Devil You Know: Recently released collection filling in a short gap before the next volume along with a couple of specials.
Fear Machine: A longer story which I rather like but does start to lose its way a bit.
Family Man: More of a kitchen sink serial killer story after the cosmic events of Fear Machine.

Family Man was broken up by a few one-offs by Gaiman, Morrison & John Smith. These were collected in Rare Cuts along with some other odds and sods.

The last half dozen issues of Delano's run (which becomes over reliant on the tedious Tarot sybolism which was very popular at the time) has yet to be collected.

Funnily enough, I just bought Family Man before Xmas (to take advantage of that Waterstone's 3 for 2 offer) and it covers issues 23-24 and 28-33.

Rare Cuts is an absolute gem and I'd heartily recommend it.

The first one to mention the horror that was Keanu's Constantine Dies!

Rare Cuts is very good, Cheers for the tip.
Anyone know where there is a handy list of the order of Graphic novels, like Sandman, Transmetropolitain etc.
 Its very hard to see which is the first volume when Im trying to buy them on the bookdepository or Play, It would be handy if they were numbered like the Case files.
Still looking for Mam Tors Four Feet from a Rat, if anyone has spare copies.

Amazon might be your best bet there, bring up any random book in the series and see if some helpful soul's made a list... like this one, what I did for the Dante books.
