Welcome to Reading Orders
This site is set out to help people new to comics, as well as people who are struggling through the more complciated story arcs.
If you are completely new to DC Comics then I'd suggest the Justice League comics, which will introduce favorites such as Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman.
If you looking for particular reading orders, have a look at Green Lantern (which includes Blackest Night and Brightest Day), Flashpoint or the New 52 Crossovers page, which includes reading orders for Batman's Night of the Owls & Death of the Family, Superman's H'el On Earth and Trinity War (which involves all of the main characters from the DC Universe!).
Finally, if you are interested in comics in general, I'd suggest having a look at the Geoff Johns Comicography, the New 52 Comicographies or the brand new Marvel Now! Comicographies.
