Does no one receive any compensation from the Masterworks reprints?
I highly doubt it, but there may be some exceptions.  I think Marvel believes the wording in their original contracts gives them carte blanche to do anything they want and precludes them from having to pay royalties for further reprints  (which is also why they can throw older work in their DCU online service without worrying about royalties either).  Kirby never received any royalties.  I'd be surprised if other creators from the same time period do.
