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] 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]
Not all announced volumes have their contents revealed yet. While their general contents and years covered can be inferred by the revealed covers' artwork, credited creators and volume names, they are unconfirmed and therefore not included.
