June 11, 1999 --

Marvel is revisiting their Golden Age this fall in a pair of projects reprinting some of the more landmark stories of years gone by, with more reprints possibly forthcoming if reader demand warrants it.

According to editor Tom Brevoort, All-Winners Comics #19, featuring the first appearance of Marvel's first-ever superhero team, in a format similar to the recent Human Torch reprint, is set for an October release. And as with the recent Human Torch book, artist Ray Lago will paint a recreation of the cover, and Roy Thomas will do a text feature putting the book into its proper historical context.

Also that month, Marvel will publish Marvel Mystery Comics, an 80-page one-shot in the format of the recent Magneto Ascendant and Black Widow reprints, collecting assorted golden age stories, though the exact line-up had not yet been set.
