So to clarify:  the numbers picked up not where they necessarily left off prior to the New 52 but counted those 52 in their numbering when they started back up again ?  Detective Comics then ranks second being  27 issues behind Action secondary to the title hero starting with issue #27 ?? I was told there would be no math

Hasn't Action Comics held the record for longest running superhero comic for every day of its existence?

What is "Action Comics"?

Anyone want to Hazzard a guess as to when DC will relaunch Adventure Comics because if they choose some abstract numbering system it can't be far from 1000 either.

They relaunched it in 2009 with a dual numbering system. It ended at 529 (just a little bit short of 1000).

Action and Detective were both (not superhero-exclusive) anthologies for years. But, yeah, I'm not sure what's special about the title at this specific time, especially after the cancellation/numbering fiasco.

Thanks for the use of "little"  I was thinking it had gone longer and thought they could count Adventures of Superman title and then some other creative thinking. But even that would be stretching it a lot. Sort of like Marvel's legacy numbering on Venom

How about the record for the highest price paid for an American Comic Book?

But Detective wasn't a superhero comic until its 27th issue, so it's behind Action, which was a superhero comic from day 1.
