Crushing Comics – Guide to Collecting DC Comic Books

You shouldn’t have to be a comic book expert to enjoy reading comics! Each individual Crushing Comics guide comprehensively covers a single title, theme, or character. Find every issue, complete with where they’re collected in book format and the right trade reading order.

Crushing Krisis is supported by readers on Patreon. Chipping in just $1 a month accelerates the rate of new pages added to the DC Guide. You can also pledge to vote on future content and get early access to new guides for the price of a single issue a month.

In total, the DC guide will be comprised of more than 52 character pages, which will be periodically revealed in the images below! It began with all-inclusive, single-page indexes covering each of DC’s most-recent completed eras – New 52 in 2011 and Rebirth in 2016. Looking for Marvel Comics?
