"Infinite Crisis" is a 2005–2006 comic book storyline published by DC Comics, consisting of an eponymous, seven-issue comic book limited series written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Phil Jimenez, George Pérez, Ivan Reis, and Jerry Ordway, and a number of tie-in books. The main miniseries debuted in October 2005, and each issue was released with two variant covers: one by Pérez, and one by Jim Lee and Sandra Hope. The series storyline was a sequel to DC's 1985 limited series ''Crisis on Infinite Earths''. It revisited characters and concepts from that earlier ''Crisis'', including the existence of DC's Multiverse. Some of the characters featured were alternate versions of comic icons such as an alternate Superman named Kal-L, who came from a parallel universe called Earth-Two. A major theme was the nature of heroism, contrasting the often dark and conflicted modern-day heroes with memories of "lighter" and ostensibly more noble and collegial heroes of American comic books' earlier days. ''Infinite Crisis'' #1 was ranked first in the top 300 comics for October 2005 with pre-order sales of 249,265. This was almost double the second ranked comic ''House of M'' #7 which had pre-order sales of 134,429. ''Infinite Crisis'' #2 was also the top seller in top 300 comics for November 2005 with pre-order sales of 207,564. ==Overview== The plot begins when, in ''Crisis on Infinite Earths'', Kal-L (the Superman of pre-''Crisis'' Earth-Two), the Superboy of Earth Prime, Alexander Luthor, Jr. of pre-Crisis Earth-Three, and Lois Lane Kent of pre-''Crisis'' Earth-Two voluntarily sequestered themselves in "paradise". DC officially began leading up to the new ''Crisis'' with a one-shot issue ''Countdown to Infinite Crisis'', followed by four six-issue limited series that tied into and culminated in ''Infinite Crisis''. Once the ''Crisis'' was completed, DC used the ''One Year Later'' event to move the narratives of most of its DC Universe series forward by one year. The weekly series ''52'' began publication in May 2006, and depicts some of the events which occurred between ''Infinite Crisis'' and ''One Year Later''. In June 2008, a third and ''Final Crisis'' began a run, set immediately following the conclusion of the 51-issue ''Countdown to Final Crisis''. This ''Crisis'' has thus been referred to in DC continuity as the "middle 'Crisis'". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Infinite Crisis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
