Summary: It's all out of order!
Review: Elfquest is the best. However, I just want to post some info about the correct order to read this printing.
Here's the page sequence if you get this edition. This series was 4, 28-page issues. This book has no page numberers.
This Volume Orig.Comic,Orig. page#
Pages 1-24 - Seige #1---->1-24
Pages 25-49 - Seige #3---->1-28
Pages 50-53 - Seige #4---->1-3
Pages 54-57 - Seige #1---->25-28
Pages 58-86 - Seige #2---->1-28
Pages 87-End- Seige #4---->4-28
The idea is that you want to read it following the sequence of the "original comic" column. I put sticky notes all over mine and found it possible to read this. Hope that helps.

Summary: AMazing
Review: I love this book! It shows just how manipulative Winnowill can be.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not quite as good as the forerunners
Review: In this book the wolfriders are hiding in the forbidden groove when Dewshines cub is kidnapped and brought to the blue mountain. The wolfrider's task is now to go there and get the little one back, but it's Winnowill they're up against, so we all know how easy THAT is!

After reading the four earlier Elfquest books, this one is a bit of a dissapointment. The story is a bit confusing and there are too many bad drawings. It feels like the Pini's are losing it. A good thing though is that the characters are 'refreshed'; They all look much 'cooler'. Cutter for example is a really good-looking chunk in his new haircut and leather-jacket. Fun reading, but not excellent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Great Book
Review: Of all the Graphic Novels WARP has sold, this has to be one of my favorites. It was well written, and wonderfully drawn. A great job, Image

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Still good, but obviously not Pini
Review: Right after the great conclusion of The Great War on The World of Two Moons, the first thing you notice about the follow-up stories is that the art style is quite different. It still looks good at first, however. You may remember that back in the espiode of the Blue Mountain, the unfortunate young Dewshine had been forced to mate with a genetically misfigured bat-elf, so here she had produced and nurtured a very chubby "Windkin" baby which had inherited a floating knack of its own. So in this new espiode, one of the Guilders who had survived the "Blue Mountain" incident had come sniffing around the Wolfrider's new hideout in The Forbidden Grove. Unfortunately, Dewshine's kid had flown right out to regard the intruder with some bubbly baby talk. As a result, the Guilder had suddenly grabbed the infant and made right off with it as a prize to present to the wicked Winnowill, who has by now made herself The Queen of The Blue Mountain. So it's the Wolfriders to the rescue! A good read, with all the characters sporting an appearance makeover, but not as exsiquite as the original stories done by the hand of the original creators.

Summary: great work hopelessly marred by printing errors...
Review: This book suffers from huge ordering errors (which no one seems to be in any great hurry to correct...) The story, while enjoyable, is near impossible to decode without asking another fan or using the original comics as a guide. Even if you can decode the confusing order, it's impossible to immerse yourself in a world when you're hunting for the next page ^^;
