    Most writers give a decent recap of the main plot points as a part of the ongoing story - the good ones do this seamlessly, the less good in an obvious way :)

    So my advice would be to dive right in there and start reading whichever series take your fancy. I did this many years ago with the Reign of the Supermen storyline and after a few issues you should have caught up.

    My sister has bought every one of the current series and likes them though reviews I have seen paint it as being a little hit or miss...

    re: Batman.

    Since recent months have seen the death of Batman and the start of a number of new Batman titles if you're wanting to 'join the fun' it might just be the ideal time. With a bit of eBaying you should (fingers crossed) be able to fill in the gaps.

    ( though personally I can't stand this current Bruce is dead storyline mega-arc and have been seriously considering giving up all my bat-titles ).

    I guess you could always wait until the return of Bruce Wayne before you start :)

    As for the Batman/Superman comic, well it's stories aren't 'bound' by the current "bruce is gone" storyline so you should be able to jump in there right now.
