I'm liking the DC Finest books a lot -- about 100 more pages than the Epics for $10 less, and better package design. But they're both good formats.
I think my favorite, over the years, was a format DC used for some Kirby reprints. About 400 pages, hardcover, on a nice creamy matte paper that felt soft enough that the colors weren't garish but good enough that the blacks printed a solid black. A very nice package.
And DC's been doing facsimiles of old tabloid comics, but just did one that was never a tabloid back in the day -- the UNTOLD LEGEND OF THE BATMAN mini-series. It looks great on that paper and on that size, so I hope they do more projects that way. JLA 200? DETECTIVE 500?
I just got my first DC Finest book - and yes, it's a really appealing package. Those wacky tabloid editions of things that were never tabloid are wild!

It was an HBO documentary that you watched on Max. Cheers, pal.
