From Wikipedia -
Doomsday Clock is part of the DC Rebirth line of comics and continues the narrative established with 2016's one-shot DC Universe: Rebirth Special #1 and 2017's crossover "The Button". The miniseries will introduce characters from Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' seminal work Watchmen (1986–1987) into the DC Universe. The series was revealed on May 14, 2017, with a teaser image displaying the Superman logo in the 12 o'clock slot of the clock depicted in Watchmen and the series title in bold typeface used for Watchmen. Doomsday Clock will feature twelve issues releasing over a year-long period beginning on November 22, 2017.
The story will include many DC characters but has particular focus on Superman and Doctor Manhattan. Johns felt like there was interesting story to be told in Rebirth with Doctor Manhattan. He thought there was an interesting dichotomy between Superman—a character who embodies and is compassionate for humanity—and Doctor Manhattan—a character who has detached himself from humanity. This led to over six months of debates amongst the creative team about whether to intersect the Watchmen universe with the DC Universe. He explained that Doomsday Clock was the "most personal and most epic, utterly mind-bending project" that he had worked on in his career.
The time 11:57 has added significance in the context of Watchmen; in the story, the metaphorical "Doomsday Clock" - a Cold War era metric of how close the world sits to an apocalypse scenario - ticks one minute forward to 11:57, pushing Ozymandias to enact his plan to prevent nuclear war.
