List of DC Multiverse worlds
This article needs additional citations for verification. (March 2012) |
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 and Convergence restored the Pre-Crisis multiverse all Pre-Crisis Earths below 52 are spelled out to help avoid confusion. Also Earths that were "revealed as a distinct parallel Earth in The Kingdom #2" i.e. part of hypertime are marked with a "*".

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 fans referred to as Earth-1A).[citation needed]
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).
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 Superheroes still remembered a Superboy when none existed in the Post-Crisis reality). The Official Crisis on Infinite Earths Index and Official Crisis on Infinite Earths Crossover Index formally canonized the "Crossover-Earth" where Marvel and DC characters co-existed making future crossovers with other companies 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.[12]
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.

The 52
A new Multiverse was revealed at the end of the 52 weekly limited series.[15] Unlike the original Multiverse, which was composed of an infinite number of alternate universes,[16] 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.[17] 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.[18] Each of the alternate universes have their own parallel dimensions, divergent timelines, microverses, etc., branching off them.[19]
The Guardians of the Universe serve as protectors of the new Multiverse.[20] Each universe within the Multiverse is separated by a Source Wall, behind which Anti-Life keeps the universes apart.[21] The Bleed permeates the Anti-Life in unpredictable places[21] behind the Source Wall,[20] allowing for transport between the universes. The destruction of New Earth would set off a chain reaction that would destroy the other fifty-one alternate universes at the same time, leaving only the Antimatter Universe in existence.[20] As a consequence of Alexander Luthor's attempts to recreate the Multiverse,[22] fifty-two new Monitors were created to oversee the fifty-two universes created afterwards.[23] 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".[24]
A partial list of some of the alternate universes that make up the new Multiverse was revealed in late Nov 2007.[25]

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.[64][65]
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.

Infinite Crisis
Designation | Description |
---|---|
Prime (Earth-0) | Home to legends like Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman, 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 the 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 gas lights. |
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 probably mistakenly referred to as Earth-2, as its real designation is unknown. 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 super villain, 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 super powers, 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 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.".[153] This leaves open the question of how (or even if) the Pre-Crisis, Hypertime, 52 and post-Flashpoint multiverses interact.
