DC Compact Comics is a line of full-color paperbacks from DC Comics. Announced in December 2023, ahead of a June 2024 launch, they were described as "perfect for readers of prose and manga looking to pick up a new-reader-friendly storyline in a self-contained full color graphic novel".[1]

At 8.5in x 5.5in, they are smaller than the traditional 10.2in x 6.6in size of a collected trade paperback comic.

The line launched five months ahead of the DC Finest series, which was aimed at a similar market to the Marvel Epic Collection.
