This book is just a lot of fun to read. When I started reading this for the first time, I did it mostly because I knew Batwoman would turn up. I did not expect to care for the characters in it, or at least not as much as I'd end up caring for them. In retrospect, it was probably the last straw when it comes to my interest in the DCU, because until then I had been able to limit my involvement to anything Bat-related and some JLA. 52 is set right after the end of Infinite Crisis, and it follows the adventures of several usually minor characters during the year the big three (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman) are missing. There are some really funny moments that genuinely made me laugh out loud, but there are some great mysteries in it, and even when I picked it up the second time I find myself hardly unable to stop reading. The art is pretty generic, but that's due to the way this was created - it serves its purposes, and it certainly isn't bad.
