If any one could tell me what happens before and after Woolfwood's death, I think I can find out if he dies in the manga.

There are now a total of 10 volumes out. One volume usually equals about 3-4 eposiodes, plus I know Trigun has about three to four extras at the very beggining.

So, hopefully I can figure this out because it is buggin' the hell outta' me.
