DC Finest Trade Paperbacks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

DC Finest is an upcoming line of full-color trade paperbacks from DC Comics. Announced at 2024's ComicsPRO Comics Conference,[1] their stated intention is to be comprehensive collections for completist readers with a high page-count but affordable price-point, similar to Marvel's Epic Collections. While no book has been released yet, more than a dozen have been announced, covering most of DC's major heroes plus an event line, with the press release explicitly stating the intention to branch out to other genres from the DC backlog, including War, Romance, Western, Horror and Science Fiction.[2]
