This collectible miniatures game, featuring DC Comics characters, uses the same system as previous HeroClix components, based on the Mage Knight system. Pre-painted miniatures are mounted on bases, within which a dial stores the figures' statistics and abilities so that there is little or no record-keeping off-table. As it can integrate with other DC and Marvel HeroClix games, it can act as an expansion to those games even though it is a stand-alone game. There are 60 versions of DC characters in the DC HeroClix: Icons set.
