While Dark Horse has kept Trigun Maximum available digitally, the series has been out of print for years, driving the prices of physical manga through the roof and rendering the series difficult to access for many a fan. The Trigun Maximum manga series, which ran for almost 10 years after the original 1998 anime ended, is owned by Dark Horse Comics in the US.
