Yeah, I was afraid the lack of color would be off-putting when I got first picked up an Essentials book (the first Volume of Avengers) but after a few pages I barely noticed. And then for this volume, I think I actually prefer some of the pages black and white. It gives some sequences a darker and more dramatic tone.
