Comment: I greatly appreciate the "raw" scans. I consider them more to be "true" scans (of the comic as it now is). Other folks can go on to do color corrections and create new versions that might arguably be more like the original comic back 5 or 6 decades ago, but it is always great to have archival versions such as this. Thanks!
