The New 52 was a reboot of DC Comics continuity that lasted from 2011 to 2016. It was not very good.

In comicsland no one cares if the shit you're reading is actually any good. I love hanging out in new52land because I feel like I'm the only guy here.
The New 52's famous lack of any kind of internal consistency means that it becomes fun sandbox territory for me. Yes, the source material is bad, but I think there's a lot of potential in the alternative versions of these characters and some of their stories. I'm particularly fascinated by the New 52 version of Tim and his Teen Titans team, although I've also done a lot of batfamily Tim-adjacent reading throughout New 52.
