TheDC Chronicles is a line oftrade paperbacks, chronologically reprinting the earliest stories (based on publication dates) starring some of the best-knownDC Comicssuperheroes.

Stories are reprinted in color with no ads, providing readers access to originalGolden andSilver Agecomic book stories which had previously been reprinted in theDC Archive Editions format. The volumes were priced significantly lower than theArchives series in order to be more affordable for the reader, with each one typically priced at $14.99USD.

The final volumes were released in 2013. Since then, DC has been re-publishing these stories in the same chronological format in the biggerDC Omnibus series. Each Age era Omnibus volume is also published as two or three (depending on page count) trade paperbacks.
