I'm a big fan of DC's Greatest Stories Ever Told TPBs. It's a nice way to showcase great individual issues. Issues that are often missed in other compilations.

Dork Note: Batgirl has been added to the mix, but with sad disappointment. 
DC missed adding a pivotal Batgirl issue to the TPB, called "The Last Batgirl Story"; which ran in Batgirl Special #1Batgirl Special #1: Batgirl's final case as she goes after Cormorant, the man who 'killed' her once. But is it a case of justice, or an obsessive desire for revenge? This one-shot special issue, the last Batgirl tale before Batman: The Killing Joke, is written by Barbara Randall, with art by Barry Kitson and Bruce Patterson. Hopefully, there will be a volume 2 and this will be included.

Dork Note: I tried to find good quality images of these Wallbuster posters, but this is the best I could find on-line:(
Clipped from on-line: It's a type of poster they used to call "Wallbusters," from 1977. This thing is monstrous: 50" x 38", and the idea is that the scene is perforated and removable from the surrounding white space, after which you stick it on your wall to give the room that whole "HOLY SHIT! They're coming to get me!" feeling. These were popular in the 70s, with artist Neal Adams providing the artwork for several of these posters, which featured Marvel Comics characters like Spider-Man or the Hulk, DC Comics heroes like Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman.
Dork Note: Here is a list of Wallbusters done by Neal Adams - Batman & Robin, Evil Kneivel, King Kong, Superman, Tarzan, and Wonder Woman
In Comicdom the superhero back icon/logo is a rarity. Reserved only for flagship characters like Spider-Man and Superman.
