Been done multiple times, but I been thinking on which DC series you like to see collect in any form, and re-colored using today's coloring skills to recolor some old series depending on the decade they were printed at the time.
This is kinda like when DC re-release Crisis On Infinite Earths with Wildstorm re-coloring the pages from beginning to end.

I don't want ANYTHING recolored. That shit sucks. There's maybe three colorists working today that I can think of off the top of my head who I actually enjoy*.
*Dave Stewart, Laura Allred, and Elizabeth Breitweiser, in case you were wondering.
EDIT: Switch Allred with José Villarrubia, since she tends to stick only to Mike's work.Last edited by Adam K; 11-01-2009 at 01:59 AM.

The George Perez run of Wonder Woman Volume Two. That needs collected properly.
God I'd kill for a recolored omnibus...Looking for artists, know I won't find any. That blows.

I love the recoloring Marvel are giving the old Kirby Norse Gods stories. Love to have seen that treatment on Kamandi, Demon and Omac trades before they were boxed up.
Love to see a nice big trade of Alex Toth's stuff for DC all recolored. Kubert's best SGT Rock's recolored. Mike Kaluta's Shadow stories.

I'd like to see collections of Angel and the Ape and Inferior Five.
Especially Angel and the Ape, even though I pretty much already own all their appearances.

I think I agree with the Kirby stuff as it would really show how his stuff really does work in this day & age artistically but at the same time, the colours were so vibrant on the old stuff that if they reprinted it properly they could be outstanding to look at.

I don't really want anything recoloured in the modern style. Artists in the past used Chiaroscuro to compensate for the poor and simple colouring. Modern colouring often detracts from that, especially in the work of masters like Kirby.
Having said that, I would like to see the following series published in colour:
All-Star Squadron
Batman and the Outsiders
Barr/Davis Detective Comics
The rest of Perez's Wonder Woman (issues 25-63)
Booster Gold vol. 1
Secret Six original series from the 60's
Atari Force
Amethyst, Princess of Gemworld
The Warlord vol. 1
