52

Synopsis: "52 is a weekly comic book that chronicles the year after, “Infinite Crisis,” the story in which an alternate reality Superman, Superboy, and Alexander Luthor try to reshape the universe as we know it. The rest of the DC comic book have flashed forward one year later and 52 is being used to tell about what happens during this time. During this time, the big three, Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman are MIA. The tagline of the series is, “A year without Superman; a year without Batman; a year without Wonder Woman...but not a year without heroes.” (source: Comics.About.com)
