No, it's not a typo. Volume number "??" is the only designation we could give to a book that is chock full of stories that can never really happen in the world of Elfquest -- but how intriguing it would be if they could. These are "what if" tales of alternate history, along the lines of "what if Abraham Lincoln had lived?" or "what if Germany had won World War II?" What might happen, for example, if Cutter was the offspring of Bearclaw and a human mother? Or what can a man do when he needs to believe in elves who no longer exist?
