Riassunto
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 Volume Two is the second of a two-volume collection of the unprecedented, critically acclaimed weekly series of death, danger, romance, terror and the never-ending search for heroism in the DC Universe's most eventful year ever.
52 features the best and brightest writers from the comic-book 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.
DC’s groundbreaking publication of the weekly comic 52 tells the story of a “missing” year in the DC Universe in real time. The cataclysmic events of INFINITE CRISIS have left the world without its three biggest icons: Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman. Who will stand up in their absence?
Now, in the second of two volumes, 52 is collected with bonus material after each chapter, including concept designs, page breakdowns, scripts, alternate story elements and more!
