A whole post could be made on just Alex Ross art on this series alone, then you got the awesome story to boot it just really is a gift to any DC fan. Great write up, agree that you just can't recommend this one enough.

I recommend the Marvel counterpart "Marvels" all the time, like just so damn perfect for people who have been reading comics forever and then for someone who has never picked one up it gives a beautiful light overview of the Marvel Universe.
