I think I'm in the minority of 5 here!!! Really? I had no idea! And how why would any one want to preserve an error?

No it isn't , that is so absurd, fixing the wrong color in a panel to match the rest of the book is not a slope is a correction of an very simple old error, it doesn't meant anything other then having a properly restored book. People that wants those simple coloring errors kept should see a therapist that enjoys a challenge in a hurry and I am soooo disappointed in Cory for doing this.

If I'm understanding you correctly clessidraman, the color of Karnak's costume is consistent throughout the entire reprint of the issue in question (AA #3), correct ? In other words, Karnak's costume is "lighter bluish green" for the entire issue ? Because if it's consistent throughout the entire issue, and colored as it was in the original comic , why do you assume it's a "mistake" ? Maybe Marvel wanted to experiment with the coloring of Karnak's costume for an issue, saw the results, and decided to go back to the original shade in AA #4. I'm sure this is what Cory means by his statement that regarding it as an error is a presumption that can't be verified. I used to feel obvious coloring mistakes , like the coloring scheme of Bucky's costume in the TALES OF SUSPENSE issues reprinted in CAPTAIN AMERICA Volume 1, should be corrected, as they were when CAP V 1 was published. Now, though, I feel preserving the issues as originally published is the right thing to do.
