Martian Manhunter to take on Superman
Catwoman to Take on Batman
Vibe to take on Flash
Baz (Green Lantern) to take on Hal Jordan
Green Arrow to take on Wonder Woman or aquaman
and theres another character i cant recall. I wanna say Katana or Hawkman, i dont got the book in front of me tho.

Sounds confusing as fuck
It's pretty straight forward. There are multiple versions of the DC characters (Ie: Justice League TAS, Crime Syndicate of Earth 3 from Forever Evil, characters in the Earth 2 book) across the 52 different earths in their comic book universe. Now you get to see some of those worlds and heroes working together.
Granted if you read Final Crisis (where President Superman & Nix Uotan debuted) or even the Action Comics issue with President Superman from 2 years ago you'll get a lot more out of this story. As opposed to someone who's first DC comic came out during the last 3 years; but it's pretty much a stand alone story that will also finally identify all of the earths in the New 52 version of the DC multiverse.

Guys I gotta ask:
Do you feel anything of value has come with the new 52? BEcause.....honestly the shit is still fucking terrible to me.
A few characters are hitting solid points...Wonder Woman IMO is the biggest winner of the reboot. Swamp Thing as well. And ill admit Earth 2 while starting to lose steam, genuinely felt radical and fresh as a reboot. I mean Red Tornado Lois? Thas pretty fucking left field.
But the rest of the DCU is just so...blah. A lot of the quintessential elements of the old DCU are gone and those same elements made alotta the heroes/concepts unique.
For example: Under the pens of Grant Morrison, Mark Waid, Joe Kelly, and Brad Meltzer, the Justice League was presented as this larger than life first response superhero team that was the shining achievement of the DC universe.
As far as post millienials Superhero groups go, The Justice League had excellently walked the middle ground between the Authority and the Avengers. They were fighting extra-dimensional, universe spanning threats but at the same time remaining a close knit group bound by this proud tradition of superheroing that had endured for a decade plus in-universe timeline.
Now, Geoff Johns seems to be trying WAYYYYY to hard to humanize the JLA by introducing things like the JLA clashing over petty rifts or the Govt. being anti-JLA and seeking to take them out. These aspects lean far too left on the Marvel house of things.
Events like Forever Evil dont help matters, as the JLA looked absolutely fucking useless during it all. Mind you i'm aware that Forever Evil is the latest iteration in a long standing Johns tradition of making his bad guys look good, but it was salt in already open wound.
TO summarize, the DCU as a whole has been stripped of what made it a unique and vibrant world with the JLA being the most obvious example to me. And for me, there hasnt been a substantial payoff yet to justify tossing everything out.
