    Yes. 
     
    But the best way to read Countdown is to bash yourself repeatedly in the head with a ball-peen hammer and then burn the issues of Countdown. It's less painful, and takes less time.

    Ya know I never read 52. Been thinking about picking up the back issues. Is it worth my time and money? I found the majority of them at a local shop for 50 cents each.
