WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? I'm so confused. Does it mean that the new 52 is only going to last 5 years or what? Help so I can clear this up in my head.

*4 years from now.*

Johns: "SALES ARE TANKING, DAN!! WHAT DO WE DO? WHAT DO WE DO??

Didio: "HIT THE BUTTON, GEOFF, HIT THE BUTTON!!"

Johns: *Slaps the reboot button."

*Insert new crossover event to undo New52*

"Get ready for DC's new crossover event, REVERSE FLASHPOINT."

@tylerlugowski: The five year limitation is the time gap from the beginning of the New 52 on up to its current events. Some things that happened Post-Crisis were carried over into the New 52, while others were erased from continuity. Justice League #1 is supposed to be the beginning of the New 52, since it takes place five years before everything else does.

Change things up every five years if the moolah doesn't roll in. That's the Five Year Limitation.

What? I haven't heard anything about DC planning on ending the new 52 in four more years. The five year thing people talk about is the timeline from Justice League 1 to present events. Its limited because its so short and specific.

It means everyone's been a superhero for only 5 years and Damian is 10 years old...

Johns: NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL LOGIC.
