Yeah, I'm really find this entertaining, but also informative, in a good way.  I've not read most of these GA books, and so these make me want to pick them up and give them a read.

What's the best way to get a hold of these books?  Are they in a Showcase or Archive format?

The best way is get on the Reading Tree, and read them on disc. These stories are probably better to read about rather than read, per se, they are very primitive; there is an Archive but it's a bit of a churn. Also, it looks great, kudos! Looking forward to having the lot in this format. Thumb's Up

The Reading Tree has started to send out the discs?

I love the logo.  The lettering is very reminiscent of the Golden Age.  Stylish and classy.

Great work, guys.  It would be so cool if some kids read this and are inspired to pick up showcase or archive volumes.  These stories are the foundations of a shared universe concept that's existed for over seventy years and they deserve all the exposure they can get.

Well done, lads.  Well done.   Thumb's Up

I would do:

STARMAN- a way to link them all together, although James Robinson does a fine job already

BATMAN THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD- because I love Jim Aparo

CAPTAIN AMERICA- after all I met him when I was 7

The Steve Ditko SPIDER-MAN.  'Nuff Said.

All of the AGENTS OF ATLAS appearances.  That could be cool.

No love for Romita?

I would love for you to do a Cap blog Doc, as convoluted and interesting as that character's history is, it would make for a great series.

For my B-day, I bought that Damn Fucking Huge Book of Ditko Spider-Man.  I don't think I've ever read 5 Spidey comics ever.

So long as we get to call it "Let's Rap With Cap", I'm on it!

Aparo was great. So many of my childhood memories of comics revolve around his work.

Let's wrap with Cap.... could be a blog and gift-wrapping tutorial in one!

Seriously though, Let's Rap with Cap it is!   Thumb's Up

Sounds like an extremely inappropriate public service announcement wherein Cap teaches Bucky how to properly wrap his young ally.  Smiley
