That's a kind of an annoying quirk Marvel series tend to have, having the story continue/end in some other series. I was reading Cable & Deadpool and there was a whole story arc that apparently happened in X-Force.
I guess that's what happens when you have a dozen different series set in the same continuity running at the same time.

Yeah, and it is weird. Some graphic novels that sum up an arc will pull from different series that touch upon the story arc. Crisis on Infinite Earth is a prim example for this. They had several different series depending on the characters that are prominent. Most of it was in JLA or JL but other series continued it.

I was just on Marvel Comics Database checking the synopsis of an X-Men (Vol 2, which seemingly is its own series) issue that apparently tied in with an issue of Cable & Deadpool I was reading and I eventually got to this.
This second story in this issue is an Endangered Species crossover, and follows events that took place in X-Men: Endangered Species #1. It continues in Uncanny X-Men #488. "Endangered Species" builds on events that originally began in the House of M storyline, and will lead into the Messiah Complex storyline.
How are you ever supposed to keep track of all these stories?!

Just recently got MLP Annual 2013 in mail and Annual 2014 is in the mail, somewhere. I'm this much closer to having the full series, they just need to release these collected editions on a faster pace.
I did get a lucky break with the first Annual. The delivery date got postponed to early next month since the seller is on vacation so I got part of my shipping fees refunded. Still, the comic was in my mailbox today. Yay.
