Hey there DC fans (if you aren't a DC fan, why are you even here),
As we all know, Superhero comics have a tendency to complicate things by inventing zillions of different universes for everything. Although marvel has a multiverse numbering about a few thousand universes, DC has literally reinvented its Multiverse at least twice. As such, it can be hard to keep track of all the different universes and stuff like that, this right here is my personal listing of it all.
Everything here is officially numbered, nothing is fanfiction although I've made a couple guesses as to the nature of the shifts in reinvention.
Note: This is going to be incomplete and most likely a work in progress. I will try to pin down first appearances as best I can.
Pre-Crisis[]
Before the Crisis there were infinite worlds, then they got mashed up in to one. These are all the Pre-Crisis worlds.
