New History of the DC Universe is a genre-defying, definitive chronicle of the World’s Greatest Super Heroes.

The prefect audiobook for any current or curious D.C. fan.

it's amazing how much story is told in such a short time and while keeping your attention. Top notch voice acting, I recognize some anime voice actors and they were stellar.

Not good for audiobook format

Gray on the printed page, but not as an audiobook. Too much short form narration interspersed with random “Hi, I’m Superman” like quotes. It would’ve been better as a fictional history book.

Brutally Pointless.

I’ve been an Audible member for 14 years and made 499 purchases and this is the dumbest thing I've ever bought. The special effects are good, but there is no story whatsoever. It is basically voice actors taking turns cycling through 10-second character impressions without narrative context. Don’t Audiobooks need storytelling to work? Precisely why this doesn’t. All it does is lists DC properties. Save yourself from disappointment and frustration. This should have been an animated feature, not an audio feature.
