I have those four collected books, however it ends right before a big
battle for the earth. Is this where the manga truely ends?

        No!  Volume 4 of the TPB covers "Books" (issues) 13-16.  There
        are a total of 33 "books" (issuses) in the main story. Plus two
        specials that take place before the main series, and on epilog
        that takes place (I beleive) 3 years after.  So the 4 collected
        TPBs cover about 1/2 of the story.

ps:     I have an extra copy of issues 3 thru 8 and #0 that I would be 
        willing to sell as a lot for cover + shipping.
