DC Finest are large full-color trade paperback collections of previously published DC Comics comic books, typically containing 500-600 pages. Similarly to the Marvel Epic Collection, this collection is not released sequentially, though many of the first volumes mark the start of eras such as the Golden or Silver Age of comics.[1]

Unlike the Marvel Epic Collection, DC Finest releases do not contain a volume number and instead display the years in which the material collected was originally published.[2]
