The DC Multiverse is a fictional continuity construct that is used in DC Comics publications. The Multiverse has undergone numerous changes and has included various universes, listed below between the original Multiverse and its successors.

Original Multiverse

Cataloged

Originally there was no consistency regarding "numbered" Earths—they would be either spelled out as words or use numbers even within the same story. For example, "Crisis on Earth-Three!" (Justice League of America (vol. 1) #29 (August 1964)) uses "Earth-3" and "Earth-Three" interchangeably. However, a tradition of spelling out the numbers emerged in "The Most Dangerous Earth" (Justice League of America (vol. 1) #30 (September 1964)). This convention was disregarded in Crisis on Infinite Earths, and it became common practice to refer to the various Earths with numerals instead. Infinite Crisis used both but Crisis On Infinite Earths: Absolute Edition and everything after 52 have referred to the alternate universes with numerals.

Because 52 introduced another set of earths, Flash: Flashpoint changed the nature of many of those Earths (New 52) and Convergence restored the Pre-Crisis multiverse; all Pre-Crisis Earths below 52 are spelled out (i.e., Earth-Three), realities from the 52 multiverse use a hyphen (Earth-3), and realities from the New 52 multiverse use a space (i.e., Earth 3). This helps, as the New 52 introduced a Dark Multiverse that uses negative numbers (i.e., Earth -3).

Also Earths that were "revealed as a distinct parallel Earth in The Kingdom #2", i.e., part of Hypertime, are marked with a "*". Variations of some of these worlds appeared in the 52 and New 52 multiverse, which are also Hypertime realties.[1]

Designation Era Inhabitants Notes First Appearance
Earth-Zero Infinite Crisis Earth-Zero is populated by Bizarro versions of various DC characters.
  • Earth-Zero's only appearance was in a single panel in Infinite Crisis #6. It is a homage to Bizarro World, with its population of Bizarros and cubical shape. The original Bizarro World was not a parallel Earth, but another planet that existed in the same universe as Earth-One.
  • This was one of the proposed names for the post-Zero Hour DC Universe after a somewhat definitive timeline was established.[2]
Infinite Crisis #6 (May 2006)
Earth-One Pre-Crisis DC's Silver Age heroes, including the original Justice League of America: Police scientist Barry Allen as the Flash; test pilot Hal Jordan as Green Lantern; Thanagarian Katar Hol as Hawkman; scientist Ray Palmer as the Atom; and Clark Kent (Kal-El), who as a teenager became Superboy before his career as Superman.
  • The default Earth for most of DC's comics during the time the original Multiverse construct was in use, Earth-One was by far the most populated and widely explored and it retained dominance over the other four worlds which merged with it during the Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline.
  • First described as a distinct Earth in The Flash (vol. 1) #123 (September 1961), first named in Justice League of America (vol. 1) #21 (August 1963)
More Fun Comics #101 (January 1945)

The Earth-One Batman and Gotham City first appeared in Detective Comics #327 (May 1964)[3][4]

Earth-Two Pre-Crisis DC's Golden Age heroes, including the Justice Society of America, whose careers began at the dawn of World War II (concurrently with their first appearances in comics): Chemistry student Jay Garrick as the Flash; radio engineer Alan Scott as Green Lantern; archaeologist Carter Hall as Hawkman; pint-sized powerhouse Al Pratt as the Atom; and Clark Kent (Kal-L), who began his career as Superman as an adult.
  • Politically, Earth-Two was different from the Earth-One template modeled after Earth-Prime. For example, Quebec was an independent nation autonomous from Canada, South Africa had abolished apartheid sooner and the Atlantean countries of Poseidonis and Tritonis were ruled by a queen, not a king, their inhabitants displaying surface-dweller features and no capacity for underwater survival, as the Atlantis continent had been raised to the surface (the model was the Atlantis seen in Golden Age Wonder Woman stories).
  • First described as a distinct Earth in The Flash (vol. 1) #123 (September 1961), first named in Justice League of America (vol. 1) #21 (August 1963)
  • Had a Hypertime copy called Earth-2.

Alternate Earth-Two (Earth-Two-A) Pre-Crisis a variant of DC's Golden Age Superman and possibly other heroes

  • First named as a distinct Earth in The Official Crisis on Infinite Earths Index (March 1986)
  • DC Wiki suggests that the Golden Age appearances of Superboy might have been on this Earth. Note this is different from Earth-Forty, where Superboy was already a famous superhero who grew up and regularly operated in Metropolis.
Debatable
Earth-Three Pre-Crisis Crime Syndicate of America, evil versions of the Earth-One heroes (Ultraman, Superwoman, Owlman, Power Ring, Johnny Quick); the heroic Alexander Luthor; and briefly, Alexander Luthor, Jr.
  • History was "backwards": American Christopher Columbus discovered Europe; Britain won its freedom from the United States; President John Wilkes Booth was assassinated by actor Abraham Lincoln; the United States flag's colors were reversed: black stars on a red field, with alternating blue and black stripes; and all superheroes are supervillains and vice versa.

Before the formal creation of its Multiverse, DC would use the "imaginary story" label to denote stories that did not fit and were never intended to fit into its canon—a tradition it would continue even after the creation of the Multiverse. Alan Moore's "What Ever happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" (Action Comics (vol. 1) #583 and Superman (vol. 1) #423) in 1986 was the last Pre-Crisis story to use the label.

By contrast, other stories were clearly intended to be canonical, but various details were wrong or there were stories told in other media that were never said not to be canonical. As a result, fans and editors would create other Earths to explain things like the Super Friends comic (set on what writers referred to as Earth-B[24]).

Also there were many "one-shot" Earths (such as the reality shown in "Superman, You're Dead, Dead, Dead" in Action Comics (vol. 1) #399), for which few details were provided and would not be named until Crisis on Infinite Earth: Absolute Edition (Nov. 2005). Finally not all alternate reality stories were assigned a name. These included (but were not limited to) the two-page "How Superman Would Win the War" (1940), the ancient Greece/ancient Israel mash-up world from Action Comics (vol. 1) #308 (Jan. 1964), the Earth where "The Super-Panhandler of Metropolis" and "The Secret of the Wheel-Chair Superman!" (Action Comics (vol. 1) #396-397) take place, and some of the Earths seen in Superboy (vol. 4) #61-62.

DC's one universe, one timeline idea was silently killed with the creation of the pocket universe (which was to explain why the Legion of Super-Heroes still remembered a Superboy when none existed in the Post-Crisis reality). The Official Crisis on Infinite Earths Index and The Official Crisis on Infinite Earths Crossover Index formally canonized the "Crossover-Earth" where Marvel and DC characters co-existed making multiverse changing events problematic at best. Then you had parallel universes (like that of the Extremists) where the counterpart of Earth had a different name as well as the realities of the Darkstars and Justice League series.

Crisis on Infinite Earth: Absolute Edition (Nov. 2005) formally canonized and named many imaginary tales, the Tangent Comics universe and some Elseworlds as part of the Pre-Crisis Multiverse, even though some (such as the pocket universe) had clearly existed after Crisis.

In the "With A Vengeance!" storyline in Superman/Batman, the Multiverse is visited by Bizarro and Batzarro. The Joker and Mr. Mxyzptlk summon Batmen and Supermen from various realities, both previously established worlds as well as unexplored ones.[14]

Convergence retroactive prevented the destruction of the original DC multiverse, so all the Pre-Crisis earths exist but in an "evolved" form, though all characters in continuity or canon can be used by writers.

Designation Era Inhabitants Notes First Appearance
Post-Crisis Earth Post-Crisis All residents of the reconstituted Earth formed following Crisis on Infinite Earths
  • This universe has various derivations explained as manifestations of Hypertime and influenced by the actions of Superboy-Prime. This world blends elements of the last five universes existing prior to the Crisis.
  • This world existed until the events of Infinite Crisis and the creation of New Earth, though events Zero Hour, JLA/Avengers and Infinite Crisis, as well as Hypertime, changed the history of the reality.
  • This world is dubbed "Earth 2" by the Antimatter Lex Luthor who dubs his own world "Earth 1".
  • Fans have often called this "Earth-Sigma," as Sigma means summation—in this case, the summation of five other universes.[25]
Crisis on Infinite Earths #11 (February 1986)
Anti-Matter Universe Post-Crisis Crime Syndicate of America: Ultraman, Superwoman, Owlman, Power Ring, and Johnny Quick; Justice Underground: Alexander Luthor, Sir Solomon Grundy, General Grodd, Q-Ranger, Lady Sonar, Star Sapphire, and the Quizmaster
  • A Post-Crisis Antimatter Earth with a Crime Syndicate whose motto is "Cui Bono?" ("Who profits?"), inspired by the Pre-Crisis Earth-Three. Originally, the Luthor of the CSA Earth, upon discovering the positive-matter Earth, named his world "Earth 1" and the positive-matter Earth "Earth 2" (no hyphens). Subsequent appearances revised the naming convention and simply referred to it as the Antimatter Universe's Earth, and also established that the CSA's Earth existed in the same Antimatter Universe as Qward.
  • This universe was destroyed and then recreated due to the events of JLA/Avengers (vol. 1) #1 (September 2003).
Original: JLA: Earth 2 (January 2000)

DC Bombshells Post-Flashpoint Variants of female DC heroes and villains
  • Tie-in to the DC Comics Bombshells statue line.
  • In 1940 various female DC heroes and villains are enlisted to fight in WWII.
  • Was visited by Prime Earth Harley Quinn who drove that reality's Hitler to suicide.[26]
DC Comics Bombshells (vol. 1) #1 (October 2015)
Destiny's Hand Post-Crisis variant Justice League International
  • A reality formed out of the Atom's dreams by Dr. Destiny where the JLI were militaristic fascists
Justice League America (vol. 1) #72 (March 1993)
Gotham City Garage Post-Flashpoint variants of Prime Earth characters.
  • A reality where the entire continent, except for Gotham City (renamed "The Garden"), is a wasteland.
Gotham City Garage (vol. 1) #1 (December 2017)
Super Friends Pre-Crisis variants of Earth-One heroes and villains
  • The reality where the Super Friends TV shows and comics took place.
  • There are many contradictions within and between the TV shows and comics
  • Based on The Official Crisis on Infinite Earth Crossover Index (1986) the comic should be part of "Earth-B" but there are continuity issues. For example, SuperFriends #12 (June–July 1978), where Dan the Dyna-Mite is shown alive and well, conflicts with JSA: The Golden Age (1993), where his brain was replaced with that of Adolf Hitler's and he was killed by the JSA.
  • This may have been Earth-B2.
TV: Super Friends - "The Power Pirate" (September 1973)

Comics: Super Friends #1 (November 1976)

The Fourth World Pre- and Post-Crisis Darkseid, Orion, Mister Miracle and Big Barda
  • The Fourth World is a continuum inhabited by the New Gods. Its two main worlds, New Genesis and Apokolips, are mirror reflections of each other: New Genesis, the bright, glorious home ruled by Highfather, and Apokolips, the fiery, horrific home of the evil warlord Darkseid and his minions. Inhabitants of these worlds have been frequent visitors to the Earth-One and post-Crisis Earth, but it has been shown that they could venture into any number of alternate worlds. The Fourth World was not affected by the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths.[citation needed]
Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #133 (October 1970)
The Dakotaverse Pre-Zero Hour Icon, Rocket, Static, Hardware and the Blood Syndicate
  • In 1993, word of a gang war on Paris Island resulted in Mayor Jefferson ordering enforcement officials to spray every gang member present with an experimental tear gas laced with a radioactive marker that would allow the police to track the participants down later. Survivors then became known as "bang babies" and were given mutagenic abilities.
  • Following the death of Darkseid (as chronicled in Final Crisis), the space-time continuum was torn asunder, threatening the existence of both the Dakotaverse and the mainstream DC universe (containing New Earth). Dharma was able to use energies that he harnessed from Rift (upon that being's defeat) to merge the two universes, creating an entirely new continuity.[27]
Hardware #1 (April 1993)
Trinity Post-Crisis Justice Society International
  • A spell that was to replace Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman as the Trinity of New Earth was corrupted, resulting in a major alteration of New Earth's history. The Justice Society of America did not disband in the 1950s but became Justice Society International and created a mistrust of the heroes who would form the Justice League. The reality tried to replace Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, but continued efforts to become the Trinity by the spellcasters made the reality inherently unstable with a rapidly changing history.
Trinity (vol. 1) #18 (October 2008)

The 52

A new Multiverse was revealed at the end of the 52 weekly limited series.[28] Unlike the original Multiverse, which was composed of an infinite number of alternate universes,[29] this Multiverse is composed of a predetermined number of alternate universes, which were originally referred to as New Earth and Earths 1 through 51, although erroneously in Tangent: Superman's Reign #1, New Earth is referred to as Earth-1; however, in Final Crisis: Superman Beyond #1, New Earth is instead designated Earth-0. Dan Didio has since explicitly denied that New Earth is Earth-1.[30] The alternate universes were originally identical to New Earth and contained the same history and people until Mister Mind "devoured" portions of each Earth's history, creating new, distinct Earths with their own histories and people, such as the Nazi-themed version of the Justice League that exists in Earth-10.[31] Each of the alternate universes have their own parallel dimensions, divergent timelines, microverses, etc., branching off of them.[32]

The Guardians of the Universe serve as protectors of the new Multiverse.[33] Each universe within the Multiverse is separated by a Source Wall, behind which the Anti-Life Equation keeps the universes apart.[34] The Bleed permeates the Anti-Life in unpredictable places[34] behind the Source Wall,[33] allowing for transport between the universes. The destruction of New Earth would set off a chain reaction that would destroy the other 51 alternate universes at the same time, leaving only the Antimatter Universe in existence.[33] As a consequence of Alexander Luthor, Jr.'s attempts to recreate the Multiverse,[35] fifty-two new Monitors were created to oversee the fifty-two universes created afterwards.[36] The Monitors seek to protect the Multiverse from people who crossover from one alternate universe to another, through the Bleed or through innate ability, who the Monitors have labeled "anomalies".[37]

A partial list of some of the alternate universes that make up the new Multiverse was revealed in late November 2007.[38]

Multi-Multiverse

The New 52 and DC Rebirth

The Flashpoint story arc ended with a massive change to the Multiverse; to what extent it is entirely new, and to what extent it is as it was formed in the wake of 52, has not fully been established. Some worlds, like Earth-1 and Earth-23, appear to be entirely untouched, while others, like Earth-0, Earth-2, and Earth-16, have changed drastically. A number of worlds from the previous Multiverse were also reassigned; for example, Earth-31, originally the alternate Earth where Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns and All-Star Batman is set, is now occupied by post-apocalyptic waterworld analogues of Batman and other DC staples. In July 2014, a map of the Multiverse was released, in promotion of Grant Morrison's The Multiversity series.[77][78]

There are 52 Earths in the local Multiverse home to the DCU Prime Earth, though due to the time-traveling interventions of Brainiac, the Hal Jordan of the Pre-Zero Hour New Earth DCU, and Superman of the Pre-Flashpoint New Earth altering the course of the Crisis on Infinite Earths, an infinite number of universes from previous incarnations of the Multiverse exist beyond these 52. This new model of creation involves multiple incarnations of the Multiverse suspended within a "Multi-Multiverse", with individual Multiverses existing as 'bubble' sets of grouped universes such as the local 52. In February 2018, the Dark Nights: Metal series disclosed the existence of an additional Earth within this context, populated by sapient metasimians.[79]

Infinite Crisis

Designation Description
Prime (Earth-0) Home to legends like Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, this universe is where hundreds of heroes and villains originate. The keystone upon which the Multiverse rests and so the Monitor has great interest in maximizing the fighting potential of its populace to better defend it from extra-dimensional threats.
Arcane (Earth-13) The Shadow League, a cabal of twisted sorcerers, lusted for absolute rule over Earth. Blinded by ambition, the Shadow League performed a ritual that extinguished the Sun. With eternal night blanketing Earth, the world's most powerful magicians united to reignite the Sun, but its new arcane heart forever altered life on Earth. Heroes and villains have since adapted to their magically infused environment, developing strange new abilities.
Atomic (Earth-17) As the Cold War was brewing between the world’s superpowers, a mysterious object from space crashed into Kansas. Mistaking the crash for a first strike, the United States unleashed its full nuclear arsenal against the Soviet Union, who retaliated. The ensuing nuclear war instantly vaporized 97% of all life Earth. The survivors hope the Earth can be healed, but the nuclear aftermath has left them with scars that never will.
Gaslight (Earth-19) The Victorian era has swept the Earth and a prosperous Age of Invention has revolutionized society through powerful steam technology, and this amazing progress is only the beginning. Heroes and villains have begun to emerge from all corners of society, and with them bring new sources of power and problems far stranger than steam and gaslights.
Nightmare (Earth-43) Tales of horrors prowling the night were once just legends on this Earth - until the darkness returned. Ancient and terrible powers beyond comprehension awoke and brought with them an army of monsters. In fighting these creatures, some heroes have fallen, twisting into monsters themselves. Heroes and villains have set aside old rivalries and are united in fighting darkness that threatens to engulf their world forever.
Mecha (Earth-44) In this universe, there were no heroes, until a league of scientists known as the Justice Consortium created them. Technology had always been advanced on this Earth, but these new robotic creations were able to think and feel and wielded powers beyond anything yet seen. They now defend the Earth from threats within and beyond, particularly the Doom Legion and their villainous assassin bots.

Smallville

Designation Inhabitants Notes First Appearance
Earth-1 Characters of the television series Smallville. The main universe of Smallville, where Superman's adventures take place. Its designation is unknown, but it was indicated that it is not the Prime Earth. It remains unclear if this comment will turn out to be true or not. This Earth has also been referred to as "Earth-1." "Pilot"
(1.01)
Earth-2 Different counterparts of the characters This Earth is referred to as Earth-2. When shown, it was always in grey and dull colors. Operating as a metaphorical mirror, all of its residents appeared to be similar and yet different from those of their Earth-1 counterparts. The main difference of this Earth from the other universes is that Kal-El of Krypton was raised by Lionel Luthor instead of the Kents, like on the main Smallville Earth, and as a result he became his world's most powerful supervillain, Ultraman. Travel between Earth-2 and the main Earth of Smallville was achieved through the Kryptonian mirror box, or through Jor-El's Fortress of Solitude. It was revealed that Earth-2 was destroyed by the Monitors. Its last survivor was Chloe Sullivan, who succeeded to travel to the main Earth of Smallville, but was later killed there by the Monitors. "Luthor" (10.10)
Earth-9 This Earth was destroyed when it was torn asunder by collision with Earth-37, toppling into one another, because of a Bleed quake caused by a Monitor who did not follow the protocol.
Earth-13 This Earth was a parallel universe that co-existed as one with the Earth of the main Smallville universe. Not much is known about this universe as it was never shown, only merely mentioned. Its main feature was that its version of Clark Kent was a normal human and a wannabe hero, rather than a Kryptonian with superpowers, and Bruce Wayne, instead of being a superhero, is actually a psychopathic killer. Like many other universes, this Earth was also decimated. Earth-13 was destroyed when Earth-9 and 37 were torn asunder by collision, toppling into one another and shattering reality on Earth-13, because of a Bleed quake caused by a Monitor who did not follow the protocol. Its version of Clark managed to travel to the main Earth of Smallville. Unfortunately, he was followed by Bruce and he was killed by him there. Bruce Wayne remains the last survivor of his Earth, as he is held prisoner on Mars.
Earth-37 This Earth was destroyed when it was torn asunder by collision with Earth-9, toppling into one another, because of a Bleed quake caused by a Monitor who did not follow the protocol.
Earth-Apocalypse An alternate timeline where Clark's ship did not arrive on Earth. As a result, Lex Luthor, as the President of the United States, orders a nuclear war that ends most of the world. "Apocalypse" (7.13)
Earth-Majestic It is referred to as Earth-Majestic and its designation is unknown. It derives this name from its greatest superhero Mister Majestic, the alternate version of Superman. This Earth is the latest target of the Monitors, as they have already started the process to decimate it. It was later destroyed, like the other Earths before it, with the consciousness of Jor-El being the last survivor of this universe.
Earth-Omega It is referred to as Earth "Omega" and its designation is unknown. It derives this name from the Omega symbol, which is used by Darkseid. This Earth was attacked and seized by Apokolips and the two planets have collided with each other. Among the ruins are several fallen ships that belonged to the Monitors, wrecked Manhunters and skeletons of dead people. This Earth has not been destroyed entirely yet because when the Monitors arrived there, Darkseid had already conquered that world. A catastrophic battle followed between the two parts, destroying almost everything around them. However, the Monitors, who even though they suffered many casualties, succeeded to break Darkseid. After Superman made a deal with Darkseid, he gave him the crystal shard that contains the presence of Jor-El from Earth-Majestic. Darkseid threw the shard into the distance and a Fortress of Solitude formed, with Darkseid saying it could be a new beginning, a "New Genesis".

A convergence of Multiverses

The end of the Convergence series resulted in the retroactive saving of the Pre-Crisis DC multiverse. In an interview Jeff King stated, "The battle to save not one, but two multiverses in Convergence provides it" and later states "In Convergence #8 we reference Multiversity and show you some of the Post-Convergence worlds that make up the reconstituted DC Multiverse. In many ways, the number of Worlds is now infinite. There may even be more than one Multiverse." as well as "Post-Convergence, every character that ever existed, in either Continuity or Canon, is now available to us as storytellers.".[181] This leaves open the question of how (or even if) the Pre-Crisis, Hypertime, 52 and post-Flashpoint multiverses interact.
