This massive fictional history that has become a piece of pop culture history. Continuity is the idea that a fictional universe, like the one in which DC's superhero comics take place, operates with a certain logic and is internally consistent. In an attempt to attract new readers, the DC universes needed to be simplified into a single universe and duplicate characters eliminated. That became this Crisis series and has remained controversial ever since. No matter which side of the fence you fall on this book is an amazing collector's edition.
