Hi Jeff,
I entirely agree. But it depends whether you have got to do a conscious reprint, or just to produce an "eBook" for consultation.
In the first case, it's not a question of simulating aged paper, this is nonsense. It's rather a question of getting the right colors, as they were conceived for the paper medium on which they were originally printed. That’s what I spoke about.
In the second case, the comic book should appear exactly "as it is". They are "photographs of an object", after all.
Many thanks for everything! ;)

Being that the comics were originally drawn with the pulpy paper medium in mind...
, I tend to not like the crispy white reprints as much,

I have never heard this apply to coloring, but not the drawing. The lines were probably drawn with the reproductive limitations in mind as many artists have stated, but I've never heard that the color of the pulp was taken into account when drawing (as opposed to coloring) in mind.
What's the source for this statement?

I can't site the quote, but I believe it was in response to some of Marvel's Masterworks series where the silver age coloring schemes seem off putting on the high gloss white paper.
I seem to remember an artist discussing the pink used for caucasian skin becoming more flesh-like on pulp. I'll do some googling to try to find the source, but I could just as easily be mistaken.
