Plus it would also act as one big docu-advertisment for the Masterworks line. $ale$, $ale$, $ale$!
I don't know about that. It seems to me anytime there's discussion of how Masterworks are restored the internet starts cracking in half and Cory and his team are treated like it's the Rape of Nanking. Need I recall the "journalism" of Daniel Best? That kind of experience will remind guys like Cory that they ought to focus on the job at hand rather than inviting people inside the room to stand over their shoulder.
I didn't recall the "journalism" of Daniel Best, and had to track it down. Ouch.


What also comes to mind is a series of posts by another poster expressing outrage that Marvel was reconstructing pages (as if they keeping it a secret for the previous 20 years) and basically trivializing the work that the restorers do, telling a number of people here how to do their jobs...

"this is from ASM #29, a low res 200dpi scan.took about 10 seconds.im sure with better scans a professional would get more satisfactory results. decoloring a page is not hard."

"i disagree, it looks reasonable.think what a pro could do. " (after being told his crappy greyscale photoshop job looked crappy)
