A shocking death shakes the DC Universe to the core. As many mourn, the mystery surrounding the murder deepens as a trail leads to more bodies. In the ultimate “who done it” story we tour the DC Universe as a secret history stands revealed that may destroy the Justice League forever.
Since I wanted to expand my DC knowledge past Green Lantern I decided to branch out to some of the well known events. Mainly the Crises. This simplified map provides a clear and easy story flow for everyone from a brand new reader to the most hardcore DC fan. There are tons of other Countdown to Infinite Crisis crossover titles that you may include that is not listed.

I like this volume. I don’t know why I never thought of it I’d probably would have been tempted to put in the JLA arc that deals with the fallout, but since it led directly into Infinite Crisis, I don’t know that there would have been a satisfying ending point.
Thanks. I had a lot of help putting it all together since this bound edition was my first time reading any of it. Since I’m really digging Gail Simone’s Secret Six I would have retroactively included the Villains mini series…were they any good?
I actually skipped Villains United, so I can’t say. I heard it was ok, but it didn’t grab my interest at the time. I was more interested in OMAC and R-T.
