The outskirts of galaxy clusters remain relatively unexplored territory and yet are vital to our understanding of cluster growth, structure, and mass. We have embarked on a program to probe the outer ICM in a large sample of galaxy clusters, exploiting the strengths of three complementary X-ray observatories, Suzaku, XMM-Newton, and Chandra. By combining observations from the cluster core to beyond R_{200}, we are able to identify and reduce systematic uncertainties that would impede our spatial and spectral analysis using a single telescope. We present our initial sample of six clusters and describe plans to triple the size of our sample, an improvement that will allow us to produce a fiducial data set for detailed comparison with high-resolution numerical simulations.
