(...) 5. Rom Spaceknight: If they can find a way to work with the toy company to get rights and money taken care of, I'd like to see this series reprinted. (...) 7. Hostess Ads- This one would be tough to do but literally take all of those Hostess ads and create two volumes; DC and Marvel. Rom is the first one that popped into my head - damn, I'd love for the whole series to be collected in a few affordable Epic-style tpbs.
As for the Hostess ads, I'd be happy with just a Marvel volume. I always thought the art in those was better.

Otherwise, I have to say that several of the things I used to pine for did indeed get reprinted in the last few years, like the original run of Black Lightning and the Man-Wolf and the Cat/Tigra material from the 1970s. But there's still quite a bit of stuff that I'd love to see, mainly: Ragman - the original five-issue series plus the character's appearances in other books in the late '70s (Batman Family, Brave & the Bold) Starfire (the sword & planet heroine) Star Hunters Metal Men #45-56 (when the series was briefly revived in the 1970s) Unknown Worlds of Science Fiction Black Goliath Tragg and the Sky Gods The Senorita Rio stories from Fight Comics in the 1940s (mainly for the art by Lily Renee) And, although they're not comics, I'd love facsimile reprints (i.e., same size/format, same cover art, ideally the same price ) of the Marvel pocketbook prose novels from the 1960s and 1970s.

...The Tarzan newspaper strips, post-Russ Manning. I still have most of the Mike Grell pages, I believe, but I'd love to see the Gil Kane pages collected... and the Gray Morrow pages even more so! ...The John Carter of Mars newspaper strips, with art by John Coleman Burroughs. Many pages can be seen on the net, but that doesn't beat a real book. I thoroughly enjoyed the Tarzan and Flash Gordon reprints published by Titan Books and IDW, and would love to see more. I’ll second the Tarzan Strips. And throw in the Lone Ranger strip from the 80s by Cary Bates and Russ Heath. I know it was solicited at one time but it never came out.

Off the top of my head: 7. Hostess Ads- This one would be tough to do but literally take all of those Hostess ads and create two volumes; DC and Marvel. What about all the non-MArvel/DC ones? I remember several Loony Toons and I think there were Harvey character ones as well... -M Also Archie and, I believe, Harvey ads.

The Senorita Rio stories from Fight Comics in the 1940s (mainly for the art by Lily Renee) A bunch of these appeared over the years in AC Comics Men of Mystery and Golden Age Men of Mystery. I have a handful of them I picked up in bargain bins overt eh years. -M

Have 90s Dethlok or Sleepwalker been reprinted yet? I kind of dug those books.

You can read many, many of them here: www.mikesamazingworld.com/mikes/features/gallery.php?page=hostessIts been touched on here, but I'd love to see reprints of late silver DC humor: Angel and Ape, Inferior Five, Scooter, Maniaks... Also a selection of Bob Hope and Jerry Lewis

Yeah, when you mentioned non-Starlin Captain Marvel, it reminded me that I'd always wanted a nice reprint of that last stretch of the regular series, from about #55 to the end, and then the first few issues of the revived Marvel Spotlight, with art by Pat Broderick and most of the stories written by Doug Moench.

Starlin exploded the comic world with Captain Marvel. But there was some nice stuff in the run from Colan on Marvel Superheroes to Kane on CM #21. I could do without the last Wayne Boring issues.

Two people have mentioned the Black Goliath series...they did actually include all 5 issues in the 3rd Ant-Man/Giant-Man Masterworks. That's actually the main reason I picked up that volume.

Have they ever reprinted the George Perez Inhumans issues? (Outside of an omnibus)
Marvel Presents Guardians of the Galaxy?
Marvel:The Lost Generation
A few DC series I'd like to have are Power of the Atom, Hawkman(Howell), Roger Stern's Starman.
They're not anything special but they ain't bad.

Interesting to see that the humor characters like Josie and Richie Rich actually got to eat the Hostess treats in their ads. I don't think the superheroes were ever shown to partake in the pastries.
