DVDs with books?
How many DVD releases out there come with books similiar to the recent Sin City release?
I can think of a few off the top of my head.
Sin City Recut Extended
Chronicles of Riddick
Batman Begins
Seinfeld Gift Sets, although these are scripts
Others that are good?

Do these count since they're books only available w/the DVD?

When I bought the DVD when it first came out it had the Paperback version of The Chronicles of Riddick attached to the case as a set.

This is probably not what you meant by "books" as most of the thread seems to address comic books, but several literary adaptations have been packaged with the original book. I've seen Sense and Sensibility with the book, Little Women, and others I don't remember off the top of my head. Great gifts for afficianados of a particular author, I'd say.

Ghost In the Shell: Stand Alone Complex Official Log 1 is DVD plus book release.
The book is an elaborate translation of the same book in Japanese into English, that gives you rich insight into the world of GITS:SAC, at least first 1/3 of the entire series. The DVD is a collection of some interviews in original Japanese plus English subtitle. Of course, the main focus of the release is the book. Nevertheness, it's still considered a DVD with book release
