Sigil, an intergalactic adventure saga, was one of the first titles launched the short-lived publisher CrossGen, which created an ambitious comics universe in 2000 that lasted for only four years. The company sold its assets to Disney in 2004 (see “Disney Publishing Acquires CrossGen Assets”) and was liquidated due to bankruptcy in 2005 (see “CrossGen ‘Reorganization’ Plan OK’d”). Checker Book Publishing Group published several collected editions of CrossGen comics in 2006-2008 (see “Checker to Publish CrossGen Collections”). In 2010, the year after it was acquired by Disney, Marvel announced a short-lived CrossGen revival that resulted in three four-issue series (see “Marvel’s CrossGen Revival R.I.P.”), including a Sigil miniseries. None of the later comics are included in the current omnibus.
