There are a number of reasons for owning this volume. It compiles some of the classic issues that run through #48 on through issues in the 50s and 60s but it also includes some great snapshots of the great Marvel Bullpen at its best through the reprinted letters pages. Some of the Marvel Masterworks (which do not collect the letter pages) are sometimes expensive and difficult to find for these issues and of course the Essentials are not in color. It also includes Not Brand Echh #1 which has the (in)famous Silver Burper story and I found myself laughing out loud at a number of the Thing's one-liners. This is Lee and Kirby in their finest hour and really hitting their stride. The main downside is the sheer girth of the book but even that can't detract from the stories. Great stuff.Read full review
