With more than 160 titles, this series began in 1989 with Superman Archives Vol. 1. Most of the restoration work to make the pages suitable for quality printing has been done by Rick Keene who has restored more than 2500 pages.

  • DC Archive Editions are a series of hardcover editions reprinting runs of early, often very rare, comic book series titles and stories from currently DC Comics-owned properties of Golden Age and Silver Age comics, regardless of whether DC was the original publisher of those works. With more than 160 titles, this series began in 1989 with Superman Archives Vol. 1. Most of the restoration work to make the pages suitable for quality printing has been done by Rick Keene who has restored more than 2500 pages. Will Eisner's The Spirit Archives, T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents Archives, Mad Archives, and Elfquest Archives are not technically part of the formal 'DC Archive Editions' series (DCAEs are typified by a cover format consisting of a black pinstriped background into which a color v-shaped area is overlaid from the top, reaching almost to the bottom for all the books) as DC does not own those properties/characters, but are licensing them from the copyright holders. In the case of Mad, the property is owned by DC's parent company, but not DC themselves; and the licensing for the T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents works is now held by IDW as of 2012. However, these non-DC Archive Edition* series published by DC are included in the list here, as the physical format (paper stock, size dimension, etc.) are similar enough that the average fan tends to think of them as part of the overall 'DC Archive Editions' series.
