===Collected editions=== There are thirteen [[Trade paperback (comics)|trade paperbacks]] in publication for this series. The titles of the trade paperbacks all seem to be somehow related with their volume number ('''''First''' Shot, Last Call''; ''Split '''Second''' Chance''; ''A '''Fore'''gone Tomorrow''; ''The Counter'''fifth''' Detective''; '''''Six''' Feet Under the Gun''; ''Strych'''nine''' Lives''; ''Decayed'' (a pun on 'decade'; this is the tenth volume)), with four being indirect references (book 7 titled ''Samurai'', for ''[[Seven Samurai]]''; book 8 titled ''The Hard Way'', a reference to a roll in [[craps]]; book 12 titled ''Dirty'', as in ''[[The Dirty Dozen]]''; book 13 titled ''Wilt'', for basketball player [[Wilt Chamberlain]], who wore the number 13 and was famous for scoring 100 points in a single game). Book 11 ''Once Upon a Crime'' is also a reference as "once" is [[Spanish language|Spanish]] for eleven. The exception to the rule is book 3, which was originally to be called ''The Charm'' β as in "third time's the charm" β but was given the title of the collection's largest plot arc, ''Hang Up on the Hang Low'', when it won the Eisner Award. Another interpretation of this seemingly odd exception is that 'Hang Up on the Hang Low' is a coded allusion to Masonic symbology, the upwards triangle placed over the downward triangle, where the number 3 is alluded to, among other things, by this code. As The Trust can also be seen to be a Masonic type allusion, one should also look for other Masonic symbols throughout the books. A series of "Deluxe Edition" hardcover volumes collecting the series have also been published,<ref>{{cite book|last=Azzarello|first=Brian|year=2011|title=100 Bullets: The Deluxe Edition Book One|url={{Google books|f6fUzAEACAAJ|plainurl=yes}}|publisher=DC Comics|access-date=December 14, 2021|isbn=978-1-40123-201-6}} (Hardcover)</ref> and then released in paperback a few years later.<ref>{{cite book|last=Azzarello|first=Brian|year=2011|title=100 Bullets: The Deluxe Edition Book One|url={{Google books|G8L6oAEACAAJ|plainurl=yes}}|publisher=DC Comics|access-date=December 14, 2021|isbn=978-1-40125-056-0}} (Paperback)</ref> {{Comics TPB table| {{Comics TPB line|1|First Shot, Last Call|[[Vertigo Comics|Vertigo]]||1563896451|*''Vertigo Winter's Edge'' #3 * ''100 Bullets'' #1-5 |writers = |pencillers = |notes = Contains the story arcs "100 Bullets", "Shot, Water Back", and "Silencer Night". }} {{Comics TPB line|2|Split Second Chance|Vertigo||1563897113|*''100 Bullets'' #6-14 |writers = |pencillers = |notes = Contains the story arcs "Short Con, Long Odds", "Day, Hour, Minute...
