Golden Age
Blue Ribbon Comics 4 from the 1980s is an all-Fly issue and has been posted in the archive. Fly not being in the title may make a difference.

It could be done as two super-sized archives or three standard-sized books with additional issues added to the third volume. Here's what those three volumes would look like:Flash Volume 7 (Flash 151-160; March 1965 to April 1966; 226 pages)Flash Volume 8 (Flash 161-170; May 1966 to May 1967; 223 pages)Flash Volume 9 (Flash 171-180; June 1967 to August 1969; 240 pages) I think for GL Volume 8, you meant to say #58-66...

This has already been covered in four Showcase volumes. So, is this the first time material first reprinted in order from a black & white Showcase has been "upgraded" to a color Archive?

Also, the Secret Society of Super-villains collections had been prepped from their unreleased Showcase.
The same may have been true of Atomic Knights, but I seem to recall waiting for a couple issues, it might not have gotten to that stage before those were canceled.
Things like that made Recoloring MUCH easier with more time to work on a project, as those issues would be available far sooner than waiting for film, scans, cleanup of stories reprinted for the first time.

Surely the Archives would be the best place to immortalise those stories (apart from maybe an Absolute of course). A lot of us don't have the GL/GA hardback unfortunately and it's one of my fondest dreams to see them in Archive format...or is that just me :-(
