The 52 Weeks After Infinite Crisis

At WizardWorld Philadelphia and the San Diego Comic-Con, DC Executive Editor Dan DiDio said that during the Infinite Crisis (after issue 5 of 7), the DCU timeline and all of the books will jump ahead to "One Year Later."

As revealed in the new issue of Wizard, and now expanded on at Newsarama, DiDio explains how we will find out what happens during that year: a 52-issue weekly comic, tentatively called 52:
“The story of 52 begins the week after Infinite Crisis concludes and runs weekly thereafter,” DiDio told Newsarama. “It answers most of the outstanding questions from the missing year, but more importantly it sets the tone for our world and the direction of the DC Universe for the years to come. With each issue one week passes, and yes, we plan to show the change in time as the series progresses. We get to show how the life of the DC Universe changes over the course of a year, in real time."

Price, page count and creative teams are yet to be revealed. The book will debut in May 2006, followng the conclusion of Infinite Crisis.
