How should DeMatteis' Harry Osborn saga be reprinted?
In a thread about other potential reprints, Huntsman Spider brought up some big stories that Marvel has not reprinted at all, the most egregious being the Harry Osborn saga.
[QUOTE=Huntsman Spider;3968170]How about an omnibus or two for J.M. DeMatteis, namely his Kraven (and Kravinoff family) story arcs, his handling of Harry Osborn's final descent into madness and eventual death, and even his establishment of the backstories and characterizations of Spider-Man's clone "brothers" Ben Reilly and Kaine?[/QUOTE]
I think we're all in agreement that this is a significant omission, but how do you guys think Marvel should go about reprinting DeMatteis' early 90s work?
There are plenty of good one-off stories ("Light the Night" with Electro, the Webspinners Mysterio story) but I think Marvel should start with Dematteis/ Buscema's Harry Osborn Saga (Spectacular Spider-Man #178-200.) It could be done as an omnibus, two Ultimate collections, or a series of TPBs.
There are related stories from the time that could be done, including DeMatteis' back-up stories for Invasion of the Spider Slayers, and the Soul of the Hunter one-shot with Zeck. The only issue with that one is that it's been collected as part of the Kraven's Last Hunt deluxe edition.
