If you and your buddy are in a battle over who can purchase the most ridiculously large book, then you have just won. Beyond that, Paul Levitz’s seminal anthology on one of the greatest comic book labels ever is worth your while anyway. With more than two thousand images, covers, interiors, illustrations, photographs, and film stills, this is the most comprehensive piece of media on DC’s seventy five (and 40,000 issue) history. You will never read it of course–you need a four-pulley system and a yoked pair of oxen to get the cover open–but it’ll look damn fine on your steel-reinforced coffee table.
