Crisis Hotline With Doc - ZERO HOUR: CRISIS IN TIME

You're on the Crisis Hotline With Doc and a brand new series for 2020 that will focus on all the Crisis events in the DC Universe. It is not a review program but rather a reader's guide and introduction to those events that highlights the importance of them to the DC Universe. In this second installment, Doc and Angus discuss Zero Hour: Crisis In Time, the crisis event that DC forgot.

DOC'S ZERO HOUR: CRISIS IN TIME
READING ORDER:

One thing that makes Zero Hour: Crisis in Time so fun is that it is a relatively self-contained story. If you don’t have a thorough background in DC comics and all their characters, this won’t prevent you from enjoying this limited series.

Below, I have made 2 lists for you. The first list is the complete event with all the tie-in issues. The second is my list of what I think are the essential tie-ins. These are the tie-ins that deal directly with the main event. But, as always, if you only want to read the core 5 issues, this event is perfect for that. The core issues can be enjoyed on their own.

The final list is of all the issues that were given a #0 in Zero Month. None of these are essential to enjoying the over core issues.
