Quote:1) Will the covers for the various EC Annuals be included in the appropriate volumes? As I recall, at least one of the Annual covers (I forget which) appeared in the EC Library in B&W only, and was never reprinted in colour.2) Any plans for the 3D comics?

Quote:The EC Archives, for my money, set a new standard for comic collections. Its obvious that the Cochran crew put alotta thought and care into the presentation. TWO-FISTED and CRYPT were delivered here yesterday and both books look great.
Quote:My questions dont have to do with design, but maybe youll field them anyway:Do the artists or their surviving families receive any financial compensation and/or complimentary copies of these books?
Quote:Are libraries showing interest in the EC Archives? University libraries? Public libraries?The Marshall Library?

Quote:This is the first I've heard of leather editions. Will they be issued for all of the volumes? I still regret that Dark Horse only made the faux leatherbinding for the first digest sized Lone Wolf and Cub volume.

Quote:Oh, and yet another question: Will the leather editions for upcoming volumes be released at the same time as their regular counterparts? I'm sorta considering getting a leather bound set of Frontline Combat and Two-Fisted Tales - maybe also Weird Science-Fantasy.

Quote:I own all of the Cochran hardbound/slipcased B&W reprints from the first go around. I've beeen tempted to get into the color archives, but have been hesitating as i want to see if the printing schedule will continue onward (I was disapointed with the DC Archive of Mad, as it stopped with the first volume). I'm okay with a slight delay, just don't want to see the process abandoned. I know that you do not have a crystal ball, but:
Quote:does the response look encouraging for the volumes printed?
Quote:if a volume sells out, will you consider going back to print (I know its little early to be thinking down that line).
Quote:i was hoping to see these in Borders (they do offer 30% off coupons on a routine basis if you're a member of their rewards program).

Quote:Please ensure that everyone working on this project understands how happy we are with how its turned out. It is the best reprint project available today. When the only serious complaint I've seen is that you aren't issuing them quickly enough, you know you done good.Russ deserves the greatest of accolades for ensuring that these classic comics can be issued in such high quality. If only DC and Marvel had taken care of their art as well as Russ has taken care of the EC art ...
