This has been IDW's mistake from the very beginning of the Ultimate Collection reprints. Mirage's scans are lousy and it's really too bad IDW didn't do their own scans and cleanup work. Relying on ancient and poorly-done scans for lavishly-packaged reprints doesn't make any sense.
Issue #1 from the first collection has missing/faded tones and a general blurriness; other issues have pixelated line art; now there are issues with missing tones altogether. This isn't the way to treat the material.
Bobby, is there any way you can tell the reprint guys to get their s*** together? :S I want so bad to own all the Ultimate Collections, but not when the reproductions are so poor. They oughta go back and do a totally revised line with proper quality control, though I guess that won't happen any time soon.
