Well, after continuously putting it off and pretending none of it ever happened I've finally decided to read up on the Crisis storylines in the DCU. But before I do, I just want to make sure I get every last shred of info and that I don't miss out on anything good or important. I'm getting all of these books through Amazon and listed them in the order that I think they should be read. I need some help in case I'm missing something or something is out of order:
Crisis on Infinite Earth -History of the DC Universe
Zero Hour: Crisis in Time
Identity Crisis
Countdown to Infinite Crisis -The OMAC Project -Superman Sacrifice -Villains United -Day of Vengance -The Rann/Thanagar War
Infinite Crisis -52
Final Crisis -Batman R.I.P. -Rogues Revenge -Revelations -Legion of Three Worlds
Note: I know about the Countdown to Final Crisis, but I've heard nothing but negative things about it and to avoid it so I did not include it.

I'm curious about this as well as I'm wanting to do the same thing.

That is pretty accurate. Final Crisis had a Legion of Super Heroes story that was really good as well if I recall.

Because for some reason I knew about that too but forgot to include it. I tried looking for Legion of Super Heroes on Amazon and I didn't find anything, just the Three Worlds one. Either way I'll update my OP to include LOTW. And thank you for reminding me.

Pretty good read but if you don't know about the history and reboots of the LoSH it could be annoying.
