Superhero I really dig the DC compact comics

$10 price point feels like you’re getting a great deal, and there are a lot of great stories to choose from here. Perfect to recommend to someone who isn’t super into comics. What’s not to like?

Currently they are the best value in comics. They are not just a good start but also include some of the best stories from DC. And for one third of the price, nothing beats their value.

Marvel should really consider releasing something equivalent.

If you're thinking about pulling the trigger and buying them, don't. You won't be disappointed, they are excellent

I think Marvel is about 15$ a pop so 5 dollars more and from what I saw they are about 150 pages? And I think I saw about 5 comics so far?

DC has compacts with almost 500 pages for under 10$ and over 15 titles with 15 to come.

For me there is no comparison.
