Error in Marvel Masterworks Atlas Era Tales of Suspense

October 27, 2006
By


Bill from the Golden Age of Comics Podcast has informed me that there is a printing error with the brand new Marvel Masterworks Atlas Era Tales of Suspense. The Table of Contents references Tales to Astonish the previous Atlas Era volume. The ToC is correct and only the title of each comic (1-10) is in error.

It’s that spooky time of year, especially if you live in Detroit! Come on in and grab a scary book!
Tonight, I go over a few of my favorites and a few that I have yet to get, but come highly recommended. I also go over the Universal Monster DVD’s one last time including the Abbott and Costello Monster movies.
There are a few sold out Masterworks to report and two e-mails to go over as well.
So turn down the lights and curl up with a good podcast!

How’bout them Tigers! As I say on the podcast the whole city is going nuts. Let’s hope they can win the Series!
As you know by now Absolute Long Halloween is on the way, and I talk a bit more about that.
My second podcast, the Trade Secrets Podcast will be debuting this Sunday with episode #4, find out what’s up with that.
This week DC and Marvel released their schedules for January and February and a little bit in March. Some get books from both companies caught my eye, but I’m a bit perplexed as to the Marvel Masterworks Atlas Era Heroes Volume 1 which collects among other characters, Stan Lee’s, 1950′s revival, of Captain America. I found this to be a really odd choice when Marvel has so much more to offer. To tell you the truth, my expectations are low with this book, but I hope to be proved wrong.
To help add another thread to the new Forum, The Question of the Week is back with a vengeance.
Aziz left me a voice mail regarding a Planet Hulk collected edition and Jasper helps us out with the whole Universal’s Classic Monster Legacy Collection and the 75th Anniversary Editions debate. I believe the jury has spoken. Case closed.
