Girl Genius Volume 1: Agatha Heterodyne & The Beetleburg Clank
Girl Genius Volume 2: Agatha Heterodyne & The Airship City
Girl Genius Volume 3: Agatha Heterodyne & The Monster Engine (v. 3)
Girl Genius Volume 4: Agatha Heterodyne & The Circus Of Dreams (v. 4)
Girl Genius Volume 5: Agatha Heterodyne & The Clockwork Princess (v. 5)
Girl Genius Volume 6: Agatha Heterodyne And The Golden Trilobite (v. 6)
Girl Genius Volume 7: Agatha Heterodyne and the Voice of the Castle (v. 7)
