You'd almost think they should be running both halves of a crossover in BOTH Masterworks series-- wouldn't you? I mean, for the sake of those who only pick up one of the other. After all, DC reprinted the Supergirl / Legion team-ups in BOTH their Legion and Supergirl Archives!

I don't think they are ignorant of the potential in a GA Sub-Mariner Masterworks, but for now, it's not in their plans.

SUB-MARINER well the first story is done nows so lets movie on same for Human Torch

and lets not forget if any of the Material from those 2 Marvel golden age volumes softcover are good lets use it to

And if Marvel can`t take care of its business maybe they should ask DC to make a Sub-Mariner golden age archive instead

By the way, for anyone who has the paperback version, did they get around to fixing that coloring "mistake" that got a the colorist fired back then? (He slipped a naughty visual "joke" in printed in yellow ink and somehow it got printed! Tsk tsk!)

Is that all that's preventing Marvel from doing the CAPTAIN AMERICA GOLDEN AGE MASTERWORKS a couple of jokes easy to correct

First, I hope they establish a commitment into bringing thier Silver Age line into Masterwork format, akin to what D C has done with thier Archive program.
Amazing Spider-Man 1 thru 70 7 volumes

Fantastic Four 1 thru 70 7 volumes

Ironman\ TOS 39 thru 99 4 volumes

Sub-Mariner\ TTA 70 thru 101 2 volumes

Incredible Hulk\ TTA (1-6) 59 thru 99 3 volumes

Avengers 1 thru 70 7 volumes

Daredevil 1 thru 60 6 volumes

X-Men 1 thru 66 6 volumes

Mighty Thor\ JITM 83 thru 150 6 volumes

Human Torch: Strange Tales 120 thru 134 1 volume

Doctor Strange\ ST 121 THRU 168 3 volumes

Nick Fury S.H.I.E.L.D\ ST 135 THRU 168 1 volume

I would also like to see an attempt to release some of thier classic Westerns.
Kid Colt: Out Law Masterworks 1-2 volumes
Two-Gun Kid Masterworks 1-2 volumes
Rawhide Kid Masterworks 1-2 volumes
But, this is something for the future, when they establish there Masterworks and can afford to releace an " Enemy Ace" or "Black Canary"

Seems to me that Marvel has actually reprinted a greater percentage of their Silver Age output in Masterworks format than DC has done in Archives format. 32 volumes of Masterworks so far, of which only two (UNCANNY X-MEN) reprinted non-Silver Age work. DC has only outpaced Marvel on two titles, JUSTICE LEAGUE and LEGION. Had the Masterworks program not been suspended for a number of years, they'd probably be 'way ahead of DC in reprinting Silver Age stuff. Then again, the reason it was suspended it the first place was lack of profitability. Now that prices have been readjusted to the same as DC Archives, that hopefully won't be a problem in the future.

Most of what you ask is already out:

Amazing Spider-Man 1 thru 70 7 volumes - 5 already done #6 coming out this year

Fantastic Four 1 thru 70 7 volumes - 6 already done #7 coming out late this year

Ironman\ TOS 39 thru 99 4 volumes - 1 done #2 out next month

Sub-Mariner\ TTA 70 thru 101 2 volumes - 1 just realeased

Incredible Hulk\ TTA (1-6) 59 thru 99 3 volumes - 1 done

Avengers 1 thru 70 7 volumes - 3 done #4 coming out this summer

Daredevil 1 thru 60 6 volumes - 2 done

X-Men 1 thru 66 6 volumes - 3 done

Mighty Thor\ JITM 83 thru 150 6 volumes - 3 done

Human Torch: ST 120 thru 134 1 volume - I would start from 101 and add annual #2 that would be 2 volumes

Doctor Strange\ ST 121 THRU 168 3 volumes - same here starts at 110 and one volume is already done up to issue 141

Nick Fury S.H.I.E.L.D\ ST 135 THRU 168 1 volume - coming out later this year

I would also add
Ant-Man/Giant-Man,TTA 27, 35 to 69 - 2 volumes

Captain America -TOS 59 to 100 -, 2 volumes - 1 already done

That makes 26 done and 28 to go, of these 4 are already scheduled, it will take Marvel
about 4 years at the current print/ re- print schedule to have them all out.

Flipping through my hardcovers this morning, I didn't see it, and the indicia on the book doesn't identify the printing, so I'm not sure whether I have a first or the corrected edition.

Vol. 1, p. 184, panel 1. Bucky is strapped to a table by a mad scientist/doctor. He is under a white blanket. There is a very faint yellow drawing over the white blanket in the area between the two straps. It's so faint, it can't be seen in certain lighting and may not even be noticed when the book is read.

I had heard there was another "addition" but I don't know where it is.

ScarletSpider,
Thank you for the information. However, (and this is my fault, for not stating it) I am talking about re-releases. Most of those books are out of print, of which many are expensive and\or difficult to find in near mint condition for around $50.00.
I, understand that if I really wanted those volumes, cost would not be an issue (provided, I had the money). But, my train of thought was based on what I felt Marvel needed to do over the next few years, to establish more trust from fans and collectors.That is to make available those volumes you mentioned and also, ad atleast 5 to 10 new volumes a year.

I agree with you Cornelius, hopefully Marvel is really taking an archive like approach to the Masterwork, making
each volumes available for re-orders
as they are printed or re- printed.
