I would think that adding color might have have been a bit cost-prohibitive.Michael Brownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16577632385379561930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19782351.post-59268927073755278662007-06-12T11:16:00.000-04:002007-06-12T11:16:00.000-04:00I finally got my copy yesterday.

Despite some disappointments (the exclusion of the Aparo Nightshade stories, the black and white reproductions of the Bullseye stories), I loved it. I started collecting Ditko's Charlton work twenty years ago, and it was great to finally read Captain Atom and Nightshade's final encounter with the Ghost, and to have quality reproductions of the stories I already own. The Blue Beetle stories are particularly fascinating, giving us a glimpse of how Ditko might have written Spider-Man. And the Alex Toth Question story is wonderful. Please buy it, and perhaps DC will be persuaded to publish Action Heroes Volume 3! (Preferably reprinting the aforementioned Nightshade stories, Dick Giordano's Sarge Steel, and Pete Morisi's Thunderbolt, if they can get the rights.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19782351.post-53441293627390507562007-06-11T20:17:00.000-04:002007-06-11T20:17:00.000-04:00Just testing something on the commenting here.
