Why do you think the second one is a volume and not a mini-series? Do you have any of those issues? If so, what does the indicia say? (small print usually inside the front cover)

I'm thinking he thinks that just because the mini-series was published between Vol 1 and Vol 2 that it makes the mini-series Vol 2. If that was the case there would be a ton of more 'volume' issues for all the X-Men titles and many other titles. Look at the number of other Astonishing X-Men mini-series and see that they don't impact the Vol. numbers for the regular series either.

So Casper, 'volumes' are distinguished between ONGOING series and mini-series. If that mini-series gets a sequel that goes with it, that sequel would say Vol 2 and the 1st series would be designated as Vol 1 for THAT mini-series.
