Saving up my Christmas money I decided to buy the '75 Years of DC Comics: The Art of Modern Mythmaking by Paul Levitz. The size is 18.4 x 13 x 3.5 inches, 720 pages and I haven't even got into one third of the book, but i have seen I have enjoyed deeply. Taschen did not cut any corners in the production of this work. The body paper stock is cover weight to avoid any bleed through with a smooth matte finish. Many of the images were reproduced from published books which were famous for showing through cue to the low quality of the newsprint. The reproductions are so accurate that you can actually see the show through of the original comic. This is actually a good thing. The layout is extremely clean and just about every printing special effect was utilized in dividing the Ages.
