I am new to the whole comic scene and was wondering what was “canon”. What series should I read, New 52, Rebirth what?

DC Comics is establishing a new timeline on what is canon.
See Bleeding Cool for details
There are problems due to new 52
Cyborg was never part of the New Teen Titans
He replaced Martian Manhunter as part of the original seven members of the Justice League
The Justice Society never existed
Batman canon did not get aftected.
