After the INFINITE CRISIS, the DC Universe spent a year without Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman—a year in which those heroes were needed more than ever as the fate of the world hung in the balance. 52 Vol. 1 features the best and brightest writers from the comicbook field including Geoff Johns (INFINITE CRISIS), Grant Morrison (ALL STAR SUPERMAN), Greg Rucka (WONDER WOMAN), and Mark Waid (KINGDOM COME), working together to tell the tale of a world awakening from a nightmare to face a new day.
