DC Direct is more compatible with DCUC than Marvel Select is to Marvel Legends (in most cases). The scale and style on DC Direct varies a good bit, but still hovers right around the 6" range. Articulation also varies quite a bit, but overall is definitely inferior to DCUC. Sculpt detail and paint apps are usually superior to DCUC.

Still, in a lot of cases they don't look out of place next to each other on a display shelf. Not so great for "playing with" though.

And yes, there are a lot of characters (and particularly interpretations of characters) in DC Direct that we've never gotten in DCUC, though you might have to dig into the older figures to find many of them.
