For newcomers, a good starting point is 'Rebirth' (2016). Begin with 'DC Universe: Rebirth' #1, then follow the individual series relaunched as part of Rebirth like 'Batman', 'Superman', 'Wonder Woman', 'The Flash', 'Green Lanterns', and 'Aquaman'. After Rebirth, major events like 'Doomsday Clock' and 'Dark Nights: Metal' are important. Following those, 'Infinite Frontier' and subsequent storylines build upon that foundation. Websites like DC Database and Comic Book Herald offer detailed reading orders.
