Talk:52 Vol 1 2

I have a question about the backup features in the 52 series. I know this isn't the right place to ask it, but since the collapse of Usenet I really don't know if there is a right place.

I know that after Infinite Crisis ended in mid-2006, DC's titles all jumped "one year later", and the "52" series fills in that missing year. In other words, chronologically, is followed by  to  (cover dates 5/2006 to 7/2007), and then by the One Year Later issues (cover dates 5/2006 and climbing). I am planning on reading these in this chronological order, rather than by cover dates. My thought is that since this is chronological, the 52 issues aren't really "spoilers" for the One Year Later issues, although those who read them as they were published might see this in a different perspective.

What I am wondering is where the backup features in 52 ("History of the DC Universe" in issues #2 to #11, and the character origins in issues #12 to #51) fit into this chronology. For someone trying to read in the order I am suggesting, would it make more sense to read these backup features along with the issues of 52 they are in? Or would it make more sense to first read "52" and the "One Year Later" books, and only after that read these backup features?

Sorry if this question makes no sense! 02:04, February 13, 2014 (UTC)
