	I'm wondering if we shouldn't create a "War Within (Franchise)" and move this to "The War Within (Comic)" - we've gotten toys (various Titaniums, I believe that one Target 2-pack) that are explicitly marked as being "War Within Series" and the like, and it appears that Hasbro is treating the three miniseries as a sort of micro-franchise when it comes to marketing. at the very least, we should probably make a note of that somewhere.

			== Dreamwave TPB ISBN ==

			Hey guys, new here. There appears to be a more readily available edition for Dreamwave's TPB, ISBN 097327865X. Amazon.com incorrectly says this is the pocket edition, and that ISBN 0973278609 is by Titan Books (rare & unverified).

			So I have a few questions: which of these were distributed for the U.S. or imported? If they're both for the U.S., was ISBN 0973278609 printed first, and then Dreamwave printed more with the different ISBN 097327865X?

			If ISBN 097327865X turns out to be the one for the U.S. market, then I want to change the Dreamwave TPB ISBN to that.
