Back before the people in charge of each company hated each other, these kind of stealth crossovers happened every now and then.

    I believe there was a FANTASTIC FOUR issue where Peter Parker and Jimmy Olsen was one upping each on a splash page. I think it was during Loeb’s run.

    I always loved these as a kid. It’s sad we don’t see them anymore. Well… except for those two cops that keep recurring all over the place. What’s with those guys?

    I believe you (Conor), or someone else, already posted this in Great Moments. Still fun though.

    I did a double take when I read that last year. Great stuff.

    Worth it through to compare the old and new coloring.

    Call me old-fashioned, but I prefer the original coloring. Well, I’d prefer it even more if the original coloring hadn’t bled through the lines around Lois’s hair, but aside from that I did like it more.

    I just read that in the Simonson Thor Omnibus and laughed out loud for quite a while.

    Good god that new coloring is disgusting. Why must they ruin classic comics?

    Why would they change the coloring?

  15. SkipSpacer SkipSpacer says:

    Yeah – why change it?  Does it NEED to be redone for some technical reason in preparing these reprints/omnibii?  And if so, why not at least TRY to stick close to the original coloring?

    Odd about the coloring. I can understand wanting to clear up the artifacts of inferior printing and paper, but it seems strange to outright change the color of clothes and what not. Seems like more work than necessary.
