DC's "52" gets under way today

The first issue of “52,” the ambitious weekly series from DC, arrives in comic-book shops today. I’ve read that first issue and it’s worth picking up. There’s a lot going on, which makes sense for a series that’s going to cover the entire DC universe, and there are plenty of hooks to make you want to get the next issue The one weak link for me is a focus on Booster Gold, a character I don’t care much about; his biggest strength was his friendship with Blue Beetle, who was killed off last year.
