Ultimate Mercenary Reading Order

Ultimate Mercenary started off simple enough, but grew into an epic tale with a whole bunch of forking paths along the way. (And also was written super out of order.) Here's an approximation of a simple reading guide:

• The cast comes together, has adventures, and transcends existence in Ultimate Mercenary.
• There are a bunch of Infinite Leadership Crisis issues that take place during UM #7 that haven't been written yet, and indeed, may never be.
• From there, they head into the absurdly overnamed Just Imagine Saxon Brenton and the Writers of RACC in: RACCies the Final! Symphony of Genesis‏‎, and currently-unrevealed fates happen to them!

Somewhere in those unrevealed fates, the cast splits off.

Ultimate Mercenary ends up on Earth-20:

• And slides straight into Ultimate Mercenary v20.
• His appearances in the Spoon of Destiny Saga take place after all currently-published UM v20 issues, because of course they do.

The rest of the cast ends up in the Classic Looniverse:

• And ends up careening right into the events of Just Another Multi-Writer Cascade That Will Probably Never Have an Ending.
• Halfway thru that story, Masterplan Lad gets thrown back in time to Legion of Net.Heroes Volume 2 #50, and shows up in issues #51-53 before making his way back to JAMWCTWPNHaE.
• After they're all back together, these characters form The Liminals in the early issues of WikiLull, but drop out of that plot after issue #11, well before it starts getting apocalyptic.
• They go on to star in The Liminals.
• Masterplan Lad then gets dragged into Hungry, Hungry Sabertooths!, where his struggle to maintain continuity between his role in the Chaotic Add-on Cascade and his home series ends up having devastating personal consequences.

There, that's not too complicated, right?

...right?
