To be honest, this one's a little disappointing - at least partially so. The first strip is scanned from a printed issue and is really quite washed out and anaemic-looking, as are some of the ads. The other stories, though, have obviously been reprinted before, as they're from nice bright proofs and probably even better than DC Super-Stars #17's original printing back in 1977. (Which has an extremely high asking price from some eBay sellers, it has to be said.)
It's a shame that DC are going down the most expedient route when it comes to sourcing some of the material for these facsimile editions. Instead of creating new, high-quality proofs when they need to, they're resorting to the least expensive option. The debut of The Huntress is the tale that most buyers will be grabbing this mag for, which thankfully hasn't been compromised in its reproduction, so that's a plus. Overall, nice to have, so grab it while you can - if you're not already too late.
