The 60s/70s softcover collections must be doing well, as DC has upped the frequency - in fact it's the only avenue of their classic reprinting that is increasing at the moment.

At the same time, I wouldn't be surprised if DC is re-evaluating the future of Silver Age archives. As the schedule stands, there will be over a year (and counting) between the Flash volume 5 and any potential new SA archive release next year. I don't recall their ever being such a prolonged drought like that, even back in the late 90s doldrums.

While I continue to hope for the best for the HC lines, I'll ride the softcover wave for all it's worth if it gets us more Silver Age reprints.


"As for contentment, that is a myth.  Give a man everything he wishes and he will be unhappy, because he didn't wish for more; give him more, and he will die of his worries.  Only a turtle, asleep on a sunny log, knows contentment!"
