Scooped a few of these at 99p on eBay which was fantastic as they were in mint condition HOWEVER....just found out they are in black and white just wanted to warn people in case they do the same. Ill still read them ofcourse and for the amount of issues these books cover they are worth every penny.

The DC Showcase Presents books are also black and white. Image has released some black and white collections as well. They are a great value if you can not afford or find the Masterworks and Archive editions. It is also nice to be able to have every Spider-man comic up to around 1985 in a TPB form.

I quite agree with this statement. The black and white of Marvel Essentials actually doesn't deter me from reading them. I dunno, guess it kinda reminds me of reading the daily comic strips in newspapers without having to wade through the news.

Some of the old artwork really pops when you can see the line work free from color and over shading. The only downside are the Kirby photo-art. The Curse of Spawn collection was an example of the black and white reprinting gone wrong, way to much line work and to many characters for black and white.
