DC Comics has a thing about the number 52, it comes up a lot. Including the weekly comic book 52, the New 52 relaunch with 52 monthly titles in the DC continuity, the 52 worlds of the DC Multiverse and more. So naturally, DC All In wanting to reflect all that was in the DC Universe would have to have some mention of that number. And so it does.
Bleeding Cool understands that the DC All-In Special is set 52 days after the end of Absolute Power. And that the DC All In books will be set after that 52 days, or filling in the story between the two dates. It will take that long to build the new Justice League Watchtower orbiting satellite, which is where the DC All-In Special is set. And that is what can be seen being built in the opening pages, the artwork of which has been teased, including the first look at the new Justice League Unlimited membership card being handed out.
Action Comics #1070 for example will be set between the two dates, and will specifically name the 52 days. Will other titles join in?
