List of DC Multiverse worlds


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

The original Multiverse

Catalogued

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!" uses "Earth-3" and "Earth-Three" interchangeably. However, a tradition of spelling out the numbers emerged in "The Most Dangerous Earth". 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, The Flash: Flashpoint changed the nature of many of those Earths. The New 52 and Convergence restored the Pre-Crisis Multiverse; all Pre-Crisis Earths below 52 are spelled out, realities from the 52 Multiverse and the New 52 Multiverse use a hyphen, and they later use a space after the Dark Multiverse was introduced, which uses negative numbers.
Also, Earths that were "revealed as a distinct parallel Earth in The Kingdom #2", i.e., part of Hypertime, are marked with an asterisk. Variations of some of these worlds appeared in the 52 and New 52 Multiverses, which are also Hypertime realities.
Note that Wonder Woman met a duplicate version of herself coming from an unnamed twin Earth in "Wonder Woman's Invisible Twin",. It was the first appearance of an alternate Earth in DC Comics.
DesignationEraNotable InhabitantsNotesFirst appearance
Earth-ZeroInfinite CrisisEarth-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 Htrae, the Bizarro World, with its population of Bizarros and its 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.
Infinite Crisis #6
Earth-OnePre-CrisisDC's Silver Age heroes, including the original Justice League of America: the Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkman, the Atom, and Superman.
  • The default Earth for most of DC's comics during the time the original DC Multiverse construct was in use, Earth-One was by far the most populated and explored, and it retained dominance over the other worlds which were merged with it during Crisis on Infinite Earths.
  • First described as a distinct Earth in The Flash #123, first named in Justice League of America #21
  • More Fun Comics #101
    The Earth-One Batman and Gotham City first appeared in Detective Comics #327
    'Pre-CrisisDC's Golden Age heroes, including the Justice Society of America: the Flash; Green Lantern; archaeologist Carter Hall as Hawkman; pint-sized powerhouse Al Pratt as the Atom; and Clark Kent, 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 both 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.
    • First described as a distinct Earth in The Flash #123, first named in Justice League of America #21

  • debatable
    Earth-ThreePre-CrisisThe Crime Syndicate of America, evil versions of the Earth-One heroes ; the heroic Alexander Luthor; and briefly his son, Alexander Luthor Jr.
  • History was "backwards": American Christopher Columbus discovered Europe; Great 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.
