This, basically. While I have been an avid superhero and comic fan for most of my life, being not-80+ years old, I can only read about things like the Crisis on Infinite Earths and such. As well, things like the Final Crisis are an important milestone in the modern age of comic books that I haven't been able to read, due to just not being able to find the book. The relaunch was a place for me to start collecting the books and reading the stories and keeping up with ones I like, instead of coming back in a year or two and reading summaries on here about the Dollmaker or why Superman isn't married to Lois anymore.
