From the sound of it, the Barnes & Noble edition might be using the same proofs as the early hardback Masterworks, so not so good. Roll on the Epic edition of the Lee/Buscema issue.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07224781868125924337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3740495193314269367.post-38596013280917757192017-05-06T02:24:01.801+01:002017-05-06T02:24:01.801+01:00I also bought these issues on their first run '...I also bought these issues on their first run 'back in the day', not later reprints and recall the two comic shops where they were purchased. Both establishments now long gone. Although when I re-read them these days it is usually the Masterworks volume coming down off the shelf rather than the original comics emerging from the archive box. The Masterworks edition is the paperback version which I feel was more in keeping with the reproduction and paper stock than the glossy hardbacks. I have volume one but it's the Barnes & Noble edition which has some weird colouring and the paperback version of SS volume 1 is insanely expensive these days! (what is it with the prices people are putting on ebay items lately?) Anyway, back to the past; a real trip down memory lane to see these covers and pages again.Philip Crawleynoreply@blogger.com
