What's next? In the Archives are they going to print Superman's face and logo as drawn by Kirby instead of the editorial changes (even if they wronged the artist), if Marvel and DC take that path of changing history it will be chaos.


From the way this particular instance was described, it just so happened that the best available source materials just so happened to be from a point in the process before that correction was made. So that's kinda just how it happened to work out.

I think, given that both Marvel and DC have often had enough of a challenge just producing reprint books of reasonable quality, the sort of "changing history" you're afraid of would likely require much more effort than these books are usually afforded.
