In May 2016, DC Comics launched a refreshed comic book universe, calling the initiative DC Rebirth. The publication of DC Universe Rebirth #1 marked the end of DC’s New 52, which controversially rebooted the DCU from 2011 to 2016.
The promise of DC Rebirth is a return to the long and rich history of DC Comics. Below you’ll find the first year of DC Rebirth comic books, as well as the collected editions that allow you to progress through the Rebirth timeline chronologically.
Alternatively, those of you looking to cut straight to the chase can try Comic Book Herald’s DC Rebirth fast track guide!
I also rank many of the DC Rebirth trades on my best comics of all time list!

The DC Rebirth Omnibus editions collects these comics in the following reading order:
DC Universe: Rebirth #1
Batman: Rebirth #1
Superman: Rebirth #1
Wonder Woman: Rebirth #1
The Flash: Rebirth #1
Hal Jordan and the Green Lantern Corps: Rebirth #1
Aquaman: Rebirth #1
Green Arrow: Rebirth #1
Cyborg: Rebirth #1
Green Lanterns: Rebirth #1
Justice League: Rebirth #1
Nightwing: Rebirth #1
Titans: Rebirth #1

Blue Beetle: Rebirth #1
Teen Titans: Rebirth #1
Batman Beyond: Rebirth #1
Flash Rebirth Comic Books
I initially included the first Flash Rebirth comics in the Justice League section below, but as reader Jason points out in the comics below, these issues follow-up most directly from the DC Universe Rebirth one-shot.
Titans Vol. 1: The Return of Wally West
Collects: Titans: Rebirth #1, Titans #1 to #6
The Flash Vol. 1: Lightning Strikes Twice
Collects: The Flash: Rebirth #1, The Flash #1 to #8
Batman (Bat-Family) Comic Books
Collects: Batman: Rebirth #1, Batman #1 to #6
Detective Comics Vol. 1: The Rise Of The Batmen
Collects: Detective Comics #934 to #940
Absolutely one of my favorite DC Rebirth titles, with a great Bat-family team.
Nightwing Vol. 1: Better Than Batman
Collects: Nightwing: Rebirth #1, Nightwing #1 to #4, Nightwing #7 to #8 (Note that issues #5 and #6 are part of the “Night of the Monster Men” crossover and should be read below)
Technically Nightwing’s first story arc takes place before the conclusion of Batman and Detective Comics, at least based on Batgirl’s references to events taking place in those series. There are no spoilers or story problems reading here, though, so I’d personally avoid breaking it up.
If you’re reading the trade, make sure you stop after Nightwing #4 and proceed to the Night of the Monster Men crossover below before coming back here for Nightwing #7.
Batman: Night of the Monster Men
There is some overlap with the first Bat-family crossover and the subsequent collections, but this will give you the crossover in its intended order.
Do not read if monster designs straight out of Bloodborne and Dark Souls keep you up at night!
Collects: Batman #7, Nightwing #5, Detective Comics #941, Batman #8, Nightwing #6, Detective Comics #942
Batgirl Vol. 1: Beyond Burnside
Collects: Batgirl #1 to #6

Weird that it is Collects: Super Sons #1 to #6
When it suppose to be either Super Sons #1 to #5 or #1 to #7
Shouldn’t Aquaman Vol. 2 go before Justice Leauge Vol. 2? I had to adjust my reading order since it wouldn’t make sense Aquaman being with the Justice Leauge during the America vs Atlantis conflict…

Super Girl Vol 4 is missing I think.. cant seem to find it
I was just trying to organize my comic books by timeline and I can't find Batwoman vol.2 and 3.
I am also confused, i started with Dc rebirth but what do I do after that, do I just follow the list?
Hi I, mew to comics and I've been wondering where to start either new 52 or Dc rebirth. I've been trying to get the timelines in order but im confused can someone help?
I started randomly with one of the classics and went from there. The timeline will make sense after a while.
My god -_- I couldn't even begin to try wrapping my head around all this! No wonder I can't get into any of it, it's all over the place... I thought the reboots were for reshuffling and supposed to make things easier to follow, apparently not.
It’s more like an unreboot, so maybe that’s why, they’ve recomplicated it. I love it, though.
I can't find Harley Quinn Rebirth, I searched in the official dc site and Harley Quinn Vol 1 Die Laughing doens't contain it, contrary to the amazon page. My guess is it's just a mistake and there the book doens't exist.
Youve said that rebirth is beginner friendly but i started reading it. I started with Dc universe rebirth and i finished it and stared titans the return of wally west but didnt understand anything what should i do?
Should i go back to the new 52?
Doesn’t Action comics 1 have to happen before superman 1? In action comics he just moved and shaved his beard, which has already happened by the time superman starts
Green Lanterns Vol. 1: Rage Planet collects GREEN LANTERNS: REBIRTH #1 and GREEN LANTERNS #1-6

Thanks a lot for this list
