Revision as of 20:37, 14 August 2009

Following along the same lines of Generations, IDW Publishing next began a series of Marvel UK reprints focusing on collections of stories similar to those previously published by Titan Books. The first of these was Target: 2006, immediately followed by several series under the moniker Best of UK. The Best of UK series, along with Target:2006, were much like Generations, in that they featured brand new covers that were either recreations of the original cover or a depiction of some important scene in the issue. However, unlike Generations, these comics were sold at full price ($3.99 U.S.)

Five series have been produced so far. A sixth is currently being published.


Items of note

These collections are not necessarily the same as their Titan counterparts.

  • IDW's Dinobots collection included a story from the Marvel U.S. series to round out the pattern of containing two stories (or parts) per issue. The issue was not in the trade paperback, however.
  • IDW's Space Pirates started with the "Space Pirates!" arc (issues #182–187), followed by "Worlds Apart!" (issues #130–131, part of Titan's Time Wars collection) and "Wrecking Havoc" (issues #172–173). The Titan reprint began with "Salvage!" (issues #160–161, and not in IDW's version), followed by "Wrecking Havoc", the "Space Pirates!" arc and "Ark Duty" from the Transformers Annual 1988 (also not in IDW's collection).
  • IDW's Time Wars started with "Dry Run!" (issue #189), followed by "Altered Image!" and "All in the Minds!" (Both in Transformers Annual 1989), "Firebug!" (issue #188, part of Titan's City of Fear collection) and the "Time Wars" arc (issues #199–205) arc. Titan's collection starts with "World's Apart!" (from IDW's Space Pirates), followed by "Dry Run!", "Altered Image!", "All in the Minds!" and the "Time Wars" arc.
