Originally known as "National Publications", DC is a publisher of comic books featuring iconic characters and teams such as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, the Justice League of America, and the Teen Titans, and is considered the originator of the American superhero genre. DC, along with rival Marvel Comics, is one of the "big two" American comic book publishers. DC Entertainment is a subsidiary of Warner Brothers and its parent company Warner Media.
Batman, Green arrow, and wonder woman are all good. If you're looking for something bigger then I would recommend trying forever evil since its a limited series, or justice league, or Batman/Superman.
Only what I read. Batman, Detective Comics, All-Star Western, Harley Quinn and Batman Eternal, which is weekly but just started so you csn get in on the ground floor. I've also heard Wonder Woman and Green Arrow are excellent though I'm getting those in trade, eventually.
Goooooooooooooooogle. This is the 20,000 time this thread has been done. Type in "reccomend dc comics comicvine," and the first result will have most of the threads grouped together.
To reiterate what everyone else said, Green Arrow (issues 17-), Batman, and Wonder Woman are all top notch
I would also like to put in personal recommendations for Animal Man, Swamp Thing, Action Comics, Superman Unchained, Aquaman, Justice League, and Earth-2 as those are some very good titles as well.
@jaken7: I did search the net but to be honest I hardly find any article or discussion about the topic. I've read the worst 52 series but not the good ones. and the good recommendations articles I've seen only talks about the 1st issue!
I've also seen discussions here which batman-related series is good. not for all the new 52.
All in all, I tried to help to myself first by searching the net but not getting anywhere so I asked here :)
Aquaman, Wonder woman, green arrow (especially from issue 17 onwards) i am also partial to Batwoman, that has been a surprise hit for me. Batman Court of Owls also a great read!
Like many others have already said, I also suggest Lemire's Green Arrow run (#17 onwards), Snyder's Batman run, Azzarello's Wonder Woman, Greg Pak's Action Comics (#26 onwards), and Justin Jordan's Green Lantern: New Guardians (#21 onwards). Those are all series I'm greatly enjoying. I am a bit bothered by Jordan's hinting at a Kyle/Carol attraction, which just seems weird to me, but otherwise its great.
I'm also gonna throw a curveball in there and also suggest Snyder's The Wake. Its not exactly DC, but it pretty much is, as Vertigo is a subdivision of DC Comics. Its a really great read if you want a break from all the superhero stuff.

Definetly Swamp Thing. Other then that it depends on what characters you like, I am enjoying Superman & Wonderwoman's team book alot. Batman is good although I am kinda skipping the prequal arcs.
