Jim Lee: It's really about re-introducing the concept of superheroes in the DC Universe, and doing it in a more contemporary, timely way. Even though you have books like Demon Knights or even All-Star Western, it's not about public recognition or understanding that there are beings amongst us with extraordinary powers.

We wanted a situation in Action and in Justice League where we show the first public emergence of these so-called super-beings and how they impact society, politics, the world. In many ways, it starts out in a way that one would imagine in today's day and age with fear and caution, and people literally freaking out about this. It's through the introduction of a character like Superman and the Justice League that the public starts understanding and accepting these characters for who they are and sees them as heroes for the very first time, coining the word "superhero."

The "New 52" plan sees the launch of several new programs at DC. Beginning that month, the publisher — which didn't even have a digital program two years ago — will release every one of its comics in digital the same day as print.
