That kind of makes me sad since I started collecting in the '80s and would like nicely repro'd hardcovers of my favorite runs. frown.gif
That's a fair point - everybody has their favourite era, and it really is hard to make decisions based on 'quality' because so much of that judgment is subjective.

For instance, there's no way I'll be buying this Captain Marvel Masterworks.  I bought the original issues off the stands and thought they were terrible even then - definitely not hardcover worthy.  And yet many issues from the 80s *do* deserve to be reprinted in hardcovers.

I guess in the end it depends how many Masterworks buyers are completists and will support a slow trudge through less-than-stellar material to get to the Shooter era.
