The events of Infinite Crisis have finally lead up to an alteration across the boards for each and every DC universe title, and it’s being called One Year Later. This is because the events that take place in these comics happen one year after the events of Infinite Crisis.
I had a chance to check out Detective Comics #817 as well as JSA #83, and I’m very confused.

Crisis on Multiple Earths was a genius idea. It was a way for DC to bring back some old characters from the past, and it changed their universe forever.
In the 40's Green Lantern, Flash, Hawkman and several other heroes joined forces as the Justice Society of America. This was an…
I haven’t had a chance to read Infinite Crisis yet, but I have to admit that One Year Later does look very provacative.
The thing I’m finding: VERY hard to keep up with. These suckers are flying off the shelves.
