Some suggestions that I already have on my list is the Loeb run of Batman/Superman and the Day of Judgement mini-series.

The intro of countdown to Infinite Crisis is edge of your seat storytelling starring Blue Beetle with a shocking conclusion that sets the tone for the entire year before Infinite Crisis begins.This book is also another one that's a very clear prequel to Infinite Crisis as it ends on a cliffhanger (which unfortunately undercuts this story's independence a bit, but so it goes) [3+/5]. I already have Death of the New Gods and Morrison's Batman run, but would love to hear some thoughts on this as well. The villains were darker and as a result so were the heroes, but they were not far off from each other. From there we get a rather wonderful gathering of DC's cosmic characters, but they all just seem to be fighting endless fights with no feeling of progress.

Geoff recently became a New York Times Bestselling author with the graphic novel Superman: Brainiac with art by Gary Frank. Being old and experienced with the level of wisdom he should have, should have brought him to that conclusion without E1 Superman having to say it.The main series awesome—some really impressive crowd scenes, a powerful way to make a sequel on a classic, and some genuine emotion. It's also very much a product of the Dan Didio and Bob Harras era of DC, where you needed a mega-event every 5 years to reset the status quo (Dan even says this much in the introduction to the omnibus), and that's a mentality I'd like comics to move away from. This was better than Crisis of infinite earths in my opinion but, only because Johns took the lead in writing. With setting up the villains united, Omac, Sacrifice, and more, every plotline, mistrust, and anger towards each other especially from Superman to Batman to Wonder Woman leads into WHY Infinite crisis is so important and ends up a reflection of the more grim/dark look into the world of DC.

I would totally take Post-Infinite Crisis / Pre-Final Crisis reading recommendations as well (please no spoilers).

Phil Jiminez, George Perez, Jerry Ordway, Ivan Reis do alot of the artwork, and also some really good artists I had never heard of like Jesus Saiz, Justiano and Chris Batista, amogst others. However, there is quite a lot of multiversy explanations as often in big crisis events (and nowadays even in standard arcs). But I imagine there are a lot of easter eggs for people who read Crisis on Infinite Earth or have an important knowledge of the hundreds of heroes and villains that show in the event. That said, this is such a product of the mid-2000s, when everyone was keen on deconstructing superheroes and morphing Silver Age comic characters into grim dudes who cut bloody logos into their chests.

But there's a good chance you'd enjoy the main event even whithout these; it'll just be more confusing.Spies with powerful toys and their agenda, a secret supervillain society forming, magic being under attack, a space war, and superheroes not getting along and breaking up the justice league. However, he also does a great job of repeating the staccato style of the original Crisis' epic storytelling. It then slowly grows and grows with each story touching a different part of the DC Comics Universe, from street level D-list villains, to a cosmic war between Thanagar, Rann, and Tamaran with huge ramifications, and a war for magic. The core Infinite Crisis series tries to be a sequel to Crisis on Infinite Earths and it succeeds remarkably well. But if a reader gets acquainted with, at least, CoIE, Identity Crisis, Countdown to Infinity Crisis, The OMAC project, and JLA-Crisis of Conscience, he should really enjoy this.
