DC Returns to the Weekly Format With 52


DC Comics' 52, set to hit store shelves on May 10, is the company's first foray into a weekly comic since they experimented with the weekly release of Action Comics, which ran from June of 1988 to March of 1989 in issues #601 - 642. Slated to fill in the gap between this year's Infinite Crisis mini-series and the events of "One Year Later," 52 will bring fans into the day-to-day world of the DCU.

Although DC attempted to bring fans a weekly in the past, this is the first relaunch of such an endeavor in over 15 years and they have stacked the deck with some of the best talent in comics today. This event, which will tell a year-long, in-continuity story, is unprecedented in the comics industry and incorporates the talents of writers Geoff Johns, Grant Morrison, Mark Waid, Greg Rucka, Keith Giffen, and many more.

In the aftermath of Infinity Crisis, the DCU must pick up the pieces of its shattered world, while asking the question that's on every characters mind: "Where are Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman?" This question, along with many others will be answered as many of DC's second stringers take center stage to guide fans through the missing "52."
