I also bought the 1980s reprints when they came out. The Not Brand Ecch story parodies a Steranko story, but it's not drawn by him: it's the work of Frank Springer.

As you say, there are a lot of ways to read these three issues. I'd suggest anyone who hasn't read the stories avoid the 1980s reprints, since the the recoloring is garish. It's better to go for the originals (expensive) or the DVD-ROM if you want to see them as they originally appeared. Or if you want to see them with quality remastered color, there's a CA Marvel Masterworks.

awesome show, Bob and Randy! I was just thinking the other day that I wish you all would do another back issue spotlight. I've got the one with cap in front of the statue and the others are on my want list.

Did you read the latest cap (606)? There's a page in there that reminds me of a Steranko dream page.

Great episode Randy and Bob. Glad to hear another Back Issue Spotlight after a year and half on hiatus. I heard you guys talk about the idea of this episode on the Previews Skype call and it turned out well. I went to get that Captain America MMW Vol 3 now.

Yes! I thought the same thing when I saw that page!

I was glad to find that these issues were available in the Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited (to which I subscribe), so I could follow along while you were discussing them. It really helped to see the visuals as you were describing them.

I can now understand why Steranko is listed as such an influence on the medium.

Thanks for the great show.
