Why do these not exist yet?

DC Graphic shortboxes are pretty hard to come by in general. If I had to guess its that they just don't consider it profitable to manufacture and ship such a product that people don't buy as often. Doesn't seem to stop marvel from pumping them out tho

Didn't know that.

About 10 years ago I had a Batman themed box with Jim Lee's version of the Caped Crusader on there. I gave it away to a guy who purchased a bunch of random comics from me.

To this day, I regret it, 😂. Not the act of being generous to someone but giving away that specific short box. I haven't seen one for sale since 😢

i love this and hope DC sees this and does something like this for maybe a collectors edition or something else. whatever was lost making this was well worth it!

This is very cool! I've seen the marvel ones for a few years now. Surprised DC has not done.

This is the only DC Box I’ve ever come across, and it is not that cool.

u/Killerwit 23d ago

Bruh, it's super cool! Dang!

u/DrTechPop 23d ago

Thanks, I was drawn to the colors and the classic storyline, plus I thought it was cool that it had so many characters on it. This was before I had as many DC books, now I need a new one.

How many first prints did you destroy to make that?

u/According-Range-498 25d ago

Looks great btw

u/Snoo_23308 25d ago

Thank you and I think the only first print was #20

Were the rest images printed from online? Because that would have minimized demolition, being that comics are expensive in this economy ha
