Crossovers: The DC Cartoon Universe and "Static Shock" This might be because while the Teen Titans are part of the DC universe, the Teen Titan cartoon is tied into the DC cartoon universe in a sort of weird way making crossovers problematic. Static Shock has made it a habit of doing a big DC universe crossover each season. Following Batman and Robin, Static Shock ended up having adventures featuring The Justice League, Superman, Green Lantern and even a time travel adventure where he got to meet up with Batman Beyond's future Batman. www.poobala.com /batmanandstatic.html   (711 words)

Comixfan Forums - DIVERSE CURRENTS #1: A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE DC UNIVERSE With the merger of the remaining universes into one, DC was able to erase muddled or redundant characters and events, leading to the re-imagining of many of their core characters’ origins and adventures (such as John Byrne’s Man of Steel and Frank Miller’s Batman: Year One). DC is home to some of the most iconic properties in the world of comics; Batman, The Flash, Wonder Woman, and the granddaddy of them all, Superman; as well as being the home of the progressive superhero imprint Wildstorm, the revered "mature readers" imprint Vertigo and the CMX manga label. The story of DC truly began in February 1935 with the launch of New Fun Comics #1. www.comixfan.com /xfan/forums/showthread.php?t=32243   (5992 words)

All Star Squadron members While the ring of the Golden Age of Comic Books Green Lantern (Alan Scott) was magically powered, the rings worn by all subsequent Green Lanterns were the creations of the Guardians of the Universe who granted such rings to worthy candidates across the universe. A few years later, DC Comics had successfully revived The Flash in a new incarnation, with the name and powers being used by an entirely new character, and it was decided that Green Lantern would be similarly revived. Toward the end of his Golden Age adventures, he was even reduced to the role of a sidekick to Streak the Wonder Dog, a heroic canidae cut from the mold of Rin-Tin-Tin and Lassie. read-and-go.hopto.org /All-Star-Squadron-members   (4446 words)

Justice Society of America: Retroactive Continuity In order to ensure the character's existence in the new DC Universe, Power Girl was retconned into the heir of Lord Arion of Atlantis (a character who had a short lived title in the Eighties). Unfortunately, DC Comics decided that in this new DC Universe many of the characters who were first published in the Golden Age (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Arrow, and so on) would not officially start their careers until the Seventies or Eighties.

While the ring of the Golden Age of Comic Books Green Lantern (Alan Scott) was magically powered, the rings worn by all subsequent Green Lanterns were the creations of the Guardians of the Universe who granted such rings to worthy candidates across the universe.

Camelot In Four Colors, Part 4 DC Comics' "King of the Seven Seas" met King Arthur (as well as Morgan Le Fay, Merlin, and Viviane, the Lady of the Lake) in Adventures in the DC Universe #15 (June, 1998). The Knights of the Galaxy are a space-faring band of crimebusters whose adventures, set in the future, were published by DC Comics in the 1950's.

Children's Action & Adventure Starring the most powerful super-heroine in the DC Universe, these hardcovers feature the earliest Wonder Woman stories, including her first appearance (in 1941's All Star Comics #8), and the Wonder Woman stories from Sensation Comics #1-#12 and Wonder Woman #1. But what many comics fans don't know is that both heroes appeared in that title in solo adventures for many years before they ever were paired together. Zorro : The Dailies collects the new adventures of the Zorro newspaper strips from the 1990s, bringing together for the first time these serialized exploits of the original super-hero as they were meant to be seen - all at once. bookshelf.diamondcomics.com /products/c_act_adv.htm   (6611 words)

Edgar Governo, Historian of Things That Never Were The Unofficial History of the DC Universe is also meant to chronicle the events of the DC Universe as it now stands, "spanning from creation to the end of time," but at this point, it only covers events up to "13 Years Ago." Those who are tired of the domination of comics continuity by DC and Marvel, however, can take a look at Magnus Ramström's collection of Valiant Universe Timelines. The first version of Amanda's Timeline is the most "complete," which just serves to show how little is known about her adventures. www.mts.net /~arphaxad/history.html   (6611 words)

Essays: Continuity Tracking: The Flash Legacy All of the 30th century adventures were wiped out, as were any which related strictly to the Pocket Universe and thus did not impact the mainline DC Universe. In the post-Crisis, preboot continuity, it was revealed that most if not all pre-Crisis occurrences of time travel in the Legion’s past had been redirected by the Time Trapper to go to the Pocket Universe instead of the “real” DC Universe. The time travel event can be completely excised from the post-Zero Hour universe as non-necessary, and should be ignored when dealing with postboot Legion continuity. lsh.freeservers.com /Frunt/Essays/legends.html   (264 words)

Justice League Adventures - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Justice League Adventures is a DC comic book series featuring the Justice League, but set in the continuity (and style) of the Justice League animated series as opposed to the regular DC Universe.

Adventures in the DCU Customs After two seasons, the show mutated into Justice League Unlimited, with a new 30 minute time span and the concept that every hero in the DC universe was now potentially a member of the Justice League. This book featured for the first time the animated-style adventures of a variety of modern DC heroes who had yet to make it to the cartoons, which has since led to a few continuity glitches (see article at right). The GL in the first Justice League cartoon and book was John Stewart, altogether different still (and for a brief moment Hal Jordan made a 15-second cameo). www.wku.edu /~davy.stone/customs/adcu/adcu.htm   (722 words)

COMICON.com: SHOOTING STAR'S McCULLAR McCullar: Well, the concept of my Thrill Seeker Comics Universe is to take archetypes from nearly 60 years of history of comics and combine them with other fascinating characters from films, television, novels and some other ideas floating around my head and amalgamate them into something new. I hope to see Shooting Star become a legitimate leader in independent comics at some point where my own THRILL SEEKER COMICS series will be housed with my own universe of characters that will allow my pals and fellow collaborators to also self-publish their own titles in our cooperative venture. When THRILL SEEKER COMICS launches next year, readers will look for clues to a murder mystery that'll span decades as a time-traveling documentary maker gets to see the adventures of several individuals first hand. www.comicon.com /cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=37&t=001237   (2088 words)
