Timely-Atlas-Marvel fans will want to check this one out, it should be packed with lost artworks to enjoy.

Yes! This looks great! I looked it up on amazon, but didn't see any ordering info. And as yet, I haven't seen any ordering information for it anywhere... but I'm sure when it's ready, they'll let us know!
There's also a new book on Quality Comics coming out soon from Twomorrows Publishing that I'm excited to see. It's called The Quality Companion, by Mike Kooiman and Jim Amash.

And, speaking of Twomorrows and their mag, Alter Ego, Frank Young and I have an article in Alter Ego 105. It's a pre- and post-code comparison of a mind-boggling Nazi horror story.
Hmmm... seems like there's a lot of collaborations happening lately in comics scholarship!

Yes this is certainly the Golden Age of comics scholarship. I'm looking forward to all of the books and articles you mentioned.
