I am pretty much new to DC comics and everything, but I know a lot, just havent read comics yet. I want to start reading some and didn’t know where I should start because I know Infinite Frontier is coming soon, so should I just wait for those to come out or start reading some old ones now and if so, which ones? Any advice would help. Thanks!!
