The Essentials by a long shot.
Marvel has done a great job of representing the 1960s, '70s and now even the '80s with their Essential collection. You can get a broad cross-section of Marvel comics throughout the years.
The D.C. Showcase stuff, on the other hand, almost exclusively is early 1960s work. It doesn't help that I'm not a fan of D.C.'s Silver Age stories - they lacked the believability that Marvel books of the same era had.
I'd love to see some Showcase volumes from the late 1960s and 1970s, as D.C. did some great work then. I'd partcularly like to see some Batman/Detective Comics and Wonder Woman volumes from that time frame.
