In your opinion? For me it was the redemption of Jason Todd and being folded back into the bat family.

Yours?

Forever Evil. That whole year, if comics were a seat, I would’ve been at the edge of it. And when Superman Doomed started, I couldn’t be more ready. New 52 outlived Marvel NOW! which was like their response to it.

I definitely have to echo the Tom Taylor run on Earth-2. He took the book in some amazing places. I’d also have to give it up to Kyle Higgins on Nightwing, picking up some of the threads Snyder set up in The Black Mirror and James Tynion IV for taking a Court of Owls character and giving it a very Goodwin/Simonson Manhunter flavor.

Jeff Lemire’s Animal Man run doesn’t get nearly enough praise.

The best thing to come out of New 52 was the obvious conclusion that readers don’t like the universe to restart.

Maybe if DC has a couple more failed reboots, they’ll get the idea.
