Hell yeah! Most in their original form (comics).

Another cool thing about these treasury editions are the covers and back covers. All new art.

One of the Hulk ones has the story of Betty turning into the Harpy and an appearance of the Bi-Beast! This is probably why the Bi-Beast character has stuck with me even though noone would accuse the character of being "over-used"!

Superman vs Ali is a must! I own this. Poor condition but the art is the best I've seen. Great story, and I'm not a DC guy.
Superman gets his ass beat!!

I've never seen this one, but of Neal Adams did the art, that is all you need to know. In the 1970's, Neal Adams and Gene Colan were THE standard.

I love the scene where Superman tells Ali, "Go ahead, tap me" so show that, under the red sun radiation, he's lost his powers, and Ali hauls off and belts him!

Um, as weird as this sounds it's not true. The first crossover for Marvel and DC was for the Treasury Edition of (are you sitting down?) The Wizard of Oz drawn by John Buscema. It's true, really, no I'm not kidding, it's true, yes really!!
