The dates I have for
GOLDEN AGE OF MARVEL COMICS
were Oct'97 & Jan'99.
There was also (comic-book format, not squarebound)...
TIMELY COMICS PRESENTS: THE HUMAN TORCH
(1999), A reprint of
HUMAN TORCH #5
(Fall'41), the 60-page story, "THE HUMAN TORCH BATTLES THE SUB-MARINER AS THE WORLD FACES DESTRUCTION!"
MARVEL MYSTERY COMICS #1
(Dec'99). This contained stories with The Human Torch, The Vision, Sub-Mariner, Hurricane, The Angel, The Silver Scorpion and Captain America. (NOT a reprint of the actual
MMC #1
, just a random anthology.)
TIMELY PRESENTS: ALL-WINNERS #19
(Dec'99, reprint from Fall'46)
The
HUMAN TORCH
and
ALL-WINNERS
reprints looked like they were scanned right off the original comics, and looked EXACTLY like actual, real original Golden Age comics... except printed on better paper. But even that was slightly yellow, not white (or maybe the paper was white but the reproduction made the paper look yellow?). BEST-looking Golden Age reprints I had EVER seen from Marvel at the time.
When they later did the
MARVEL 65TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL #1
(Oct'04), I thought it was an inexcusable DISGRACE, since 5 years earlier they had already proven how damn good they could do Golden Age reprints. The '04 comic was possibly the WORST-looking Golden Age reprint I had ever seen, and apparently was a "sampler" of the 1st
MARVEL MYSTERY COMICS MASTERWORKS Vol.1
, which I never saw, but was notoriously AWFUL.
