Silver Marvel reprint titles! Any love for them? 1 1

[Frisco Larson]

Marvel started some reprint titles in the Silver Age, some with redrawn covers, which make them interesting on their own. Post 'em here.

I LOVE the covers that show OTHER Silver Age covers!!!

I love the Marvel SA reprints as reading copies:

loved Marvel Tales as a kid ... it was the only way i could read older Spider-Man stories  !

Picked this one up a local con a few years back for a few bucks. 1st Green Goblin reprint. It was the first time I'd ever actually read the Goblin's first appearance.

Hmmm...early pole dancing techniques as presented by Iceman.

Y’know, I don’t really have any SA reprints, but now that I’ve sold off so much, I’m looking at these and seeing that I don’t have most of these stories anymore! 

Anybody wanna sell entire runs of super cheap reading copies?

Are you into the various modern reprint volumes at all?  Masterworks, Omnibus, etc. etc. ... some of these are themselves expensive collectibles, but I think many can be had for cheap especially if they're beaten up a bit.

I’m mostly joking.

 I have a good chunk of Essentials, but I didn’t buy lots of them because I had reading copies of the originals. Now those are gone, and I’ve always like the big SA reprint comics but never collected them. 

Here’s my excuse! I might just dive in!

I didn't mention Essentials because I can't imagine you settling for black and white.

I dig the newsprint! They’re mostly for quick reference anyway. That’s one very big problem with my preferred reprint titles; research suffers because they can omit parts of the story.

[KirbyJack]

Mostly my decision goes like this; choose between spending money on new hardcover books, or old comics. 

The old comics win every time!

I love these books. Brings back memories. My first was Marvel Tales # 3 when I was  a wee lad. I really love the Fantasy Masterpieces the most . Great Golden age stuff. That's how I found out there was a such thing as a Golden age of comics.
