The new and much talked about release from Taschen Books is 75 Years of DC Comics – The Art of Modern Mythmaking by Paul Levitz.

While not specifically Canuck, there is a lot of great content on the history of DC comics and some Joe Shuster related information.

But what people really want to know is, ‘how big is this book?’

Behold.
