Anthology comics used to be common in America, but are rarely seen nowadays. [[MarvelComics Marvel]] and [[DCComics DC]], the big publishers, originally published several stories in one issue of their respective comics; only the most popular characters ever got a whole issue devoted to them, and even then it was typically a group of shorter stories about the character. Nowadays, Marvel and DC typically publish one or two stories per issue of each comic - the DecompressedComic and WritingForTheTrade pretty much forced the end of the anthology at the Big Two. However, independent comics do occasionally go down the anthology route. Additionally, Marvel has recently attempted to revive the anthology format with ''Marvel Comics Presents''; the first series lasted 175 issues but the second only 12. They've since tried giving it another go, this time re-using the Strange Tales title.

* ''YuriHime'', ''Yuri Hime S'', and ''YuriHime Wildrose''
