===Checker Books=== In 2006, Checker Books obtained the rights to publish trade collections of various CrossGen series, starting with ''Sojourn''. A total of nine collected editions were part of the agreement: two each for ''Sojourn'', ''Negation'', and ''Scion'', and single volumes for ''The Way of the Rat'', ''Sigil'', and ''The Path''. There are no plans by Checker Books for more traveler-sized collections. Mark Thompson, the publisher of Checker Books, traveled to New York in 2007 and spoke with Disney representatives about reprinting further collections. No agreement has been made at the time, but according to Mark Thompson, he indicated that this would happen.<ref>{{cite web|author=Arrant, Chris|url=http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=121257|publisher=[[Newsarama]]|title=CHECKER AND THE CROSSGEN REPRINTS - UPDATE|date=July 17, 2007|access-date=September 15, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070929125149/http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=121257|archive-date=September 29, 2007}}</ref> In a quick follow-up interview he expanded on things, explaining how difficult it has been to pin down what is considered 'full distributed' and to solve this they are: "planning to propose to Disney that we 'catch up' by putting out omnibus collections".<ref>{{cite web|author=Arrant, Chris|publisher=[[Newsarama]]|title=CHECKER AND THE CROSSGEN REPRINTS - UPDATE|date=July 31, 2007|access-date=September 15, 2020|url=http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=123394|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070929140008/http://forum.newsarama.com/showthread.php?t=123394|archive-date=September 29, 2007}}</ref> In 2008, Checker Books published three CrossGen titles.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=12537 | title=Checker Comics announces three new CrossGen collections | website=Comic Book Resources | access-date=12 May 2016}}</ref> These were: * ''Negation Hounded, Vol. 3'' (writer [[Tony Bedard]], illustrator [[Paul Pelletier]], {{ISBN|978-1-933160-63-4}}, 172 pages) * ''Sigil V. 6 Planetary Union'' (writer [[Chuck Dixon]], illustrator [[Scot Eaton]], {{ISBN|978-1-933160-67-2}}, 172 pages) * ''Sojourn Volume 6 - The Berzerker's Tale'' (writer [[Ian Edginton]], illustrator [[Greg Land]], {{ISBN|978-1-933160-72-6}}, 172 pages)
