Because the script for the movie is going to be done in the next few weeks and they figured it would be good marketing to release it when the news of the movie kicks up.

: I recently read the Marvel Masterwork

: thrilled to read some '50's Sub-Mariner
: stories I hadn't seen reprinted before.
: They're prime Everett art and were
: beautifully reproduced (line art and color).
: I regret Marvel's decision to reprint the
: early Golden Age appearances as part of the
: Masterworks series due to the expense and
: slowness (4 issues at a time) of the
: process. I'd prefer either an Essentials
: (B&W) volume or a color trade (like the two
: volume Captain America Golden Age trades
: with the Kirby-Simon issues), reprinting
: only the Namor stories. I'd like to have the
: later '40's to mid '50's issues of the
: Sub-Mariner title. This Everett art is
: probably my favorite overall look. Yes, the
: stories are often corny, and the "young
: Namor" stories are very light-hearted,
: but they have a certain charm (alright,
: goofy-ness) to them that I don't really see
: anymore.
