Sprawling epic with too many characters to keep track of. You'll probably need to know some backstory to be able to follow what's going on.

This is one of the most unique superhero comic book runs I’ve ever read, I’m extremely excited to get to the rest

A great opening salvo in a comic experiment of 52 issues in 52 weeks. Excited to read more to see how/if they stick the landing

Aww, jeeze. I think I honestly read this because “it was there,” my library’s collection of comic books being really not the best. It was okay, but I’ve never really read much DC (Make mine Marvel! Or, well, Vertigo), so it lacked resonance for me.

Great way to read the 52 series! It doesn’t include the back-up stories, such as the history of the DC universe. The back-up stories don’t affect the actual story of 52. Also, a fun way to read this first volume of 52 is reading along with the podcast “52 Pickup” by Gita Jackson and Alex Jaffe.

This series follows up the 52 event series from DC. Not much of consequence happens in it, with the exception of some cute humor between the three lead superheroes. For completists, SUPERMAN, WONDER WOMAN, and BATMAN, and DOOM PATROL all play parts, but there's really nothing to recommend the series except the art, which is by the underrated Pat Oliffe.
The story has something to do with the rebirth of the four horsemen following the events of 52, and the superheroes who try to stop them. But there's no real suspense or characterization, just pretty much by-the-numbers superheroics.
For completists only.
