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
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.
| Designation | Era | Notable 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 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 (May 2006) |
| Earth-One | Pre-Crisis | DC'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 (Earth-Two, Earth-Four, Earth-S, and Earth-X) during Crisis on Infinite Earths. | More Fun Comics #101 (January 1945) The Earth-One Batman and Gotham City first appeared in Detective Comics #327 (May 1964) |
| Earth-Two | Pre-Crisis | DC's Golden Age heroes, including the Justice Society of America: the Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkman, the Atom, and Superman. | 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. Hypertime version called Earth-2 | New Fun Comics #1 (February 1935); retconned to The Flash #123 (September 1961) |
| Alternate Earth-Two (Earth-Two-A) | Pre-Crisis | A variant of DC's Golden Age Superman and possibly other heroes | Clark Kent worked for the Daily Planet under editor Perry White in the 1940s and 1950s. On the regular Earth-Two, Kent worked for the Daily Star, his editor was George Taylor, and White was a reporter. Suggested by E. Nelson Bridwell in the Superman Family letters page to explain inconsistencies in 1940s and 1950s Superman stories with Earth-Two history | debatable |
| Earth-Three | Pre-Crisis | The Crime Syndicate of America, evil versions of the Earth-One heroes (Ultraman, Owlman, Superwoman, Power Ring, Johnny Quick); 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. A Hypertime version of Earth-Three was seen in Another Nail | Justice League of America #29 (August 1964) |
| Earth-Four | Crisis on Infinite Earths | The former Charlton Comics heroes: Captain Atom, Blue Beetle, Nightshade, Peacemaker, Question, Thunderbolt (Peter Cannon) and Judomaster | This Earth was introduced at the beginning of Crisis, and disappeared less than a year later, when it merged with the four other surviving Earths (Earth-One, Earth-Two, Earth-S, and Earth-X). Hypertime versions called Earth-4 and Earth 4 | Yellowjacket #1 (1944) |
| Earth-Five | Pre-Crisis | Bruce Wayne | Transported by the Phantom Stranger to a universe with no Krypton and no superheroes, the Earth-One Batman prevents the murders of the Earth-Five versions of his parents.

| Earth-Six | Crisis on Infinite Earths | Lady Quark, Lord Volt and their daughter Princess Fern | Earth-Six is apparently ruled by a royal family of superheroes. On this Earth, America lost the Revolutionary War, and technology appears to have advanced more rapidly than on Earth-One. Earth-Six was destroyed in Crisis, with only Lady Quark surviving. | Crisis on Infinite Earths #4 (June 1985) |
| Earth-Seven | Infinite Crisis | The Dark Angel, an evil analogue of Donna Troy | The Anti-Monitor saved the Dark Angel, just as the Monitor had saved her good counterpart Harbinger.

The 52 Multiverse
A new Multiverse was revealed at the end of the 52 weekly maxiseries. Unlike the original Multiverse, which was composed of an infinite number of alternate universes, 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. 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. Each of the alternate universes have their own parallel dimensions, divergent timelines, microverses, etc., branching off of them.
The Guardians of the Universe serve as protectors of the new Multiverse. Each universe within the Multiverse is separated by a Source Wall, behind which the Anti-Life Equation keeps the universes apart. The Bleed permeates the Anti-Life Equation in unpredictable places behind the Source Wall, allowing for transport between 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. As a consequence of Alexander Luthor Jr.'s attempts to recreate the Multiverse, 52 new Monitors were created to oversee the 52 universes created afterwards. 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".

The New 52 Multiverse
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 and Robin, the Boy Wonder is set, is now occupied by post-apocalyptic waterworld analogues of Batman and other DC staples.
The Divine Continuum
In July 2014, a map of the Multiverse was released, in promotion of The Multiversity series. In 2016, DC Rebirth begins restoring the DC Universe to a form much like that prior to The New 52 while still incorporating numerous elements of its continuity. 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 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".
In Doomsday Clock (2019) it was revealed that previous incarnations of DC Universe, such as Pre-Crisis Earth-One and New 52's Prime Earth still exist in hypertime as Earth-1985 and Earth-52, as a way of preserving every era of Superman. Flashpoint Beyond then clarified that the Omniverse and Hypertime exist alongside each other in a larger Divine Continuum, with worlds born of evolution of the timeline existing in Hypertime while worlds based on different conceptual frameworks exist in the Omniverse.
The Omniverse
Originally, there were 52 Earths in the local Multiverse home to the DCU Prime Earth. But in Dark Nights: Death Metal, this was confirmed that there are an infinite number of universes existing beyond them. This new model of creation involves multiple incarnations of the Multiverse suspended within a larger Omniverse, with individual Multiverses existing as 'bubble' sets of grouped universes, such as the local 52 or the now-defunct Multiverse 2, which has been identified as the remains of the pre-Crisis Multiverse. In Dark Crisis (2022), Pariah engineers a revival of many Earths from the original Multiverse, and adds them to the current Multiverse, removing the 52-world cap.

The Multiverse-2
As it was mentioned in The Multiversity, this multiverse was destroyed by the Empty Hand.
In Infinite Frontier, it is identified as the remnants of the pre-Crisis Multiverse. Pariah uses it to trap various members of the Justice League in private realities that supposedly represent their ideal worlds, as a sort of "honey trap".
The Dark Multiverse
The Dark Multiverse made its debut on DC's Dark Nights: Metal banner. Characters within this storyline are stated as originating from beyond the core New 52 Multiverse that has been depicted until now and contains Dark Knight Batman analogues of the Flash, Doomsday, Aquawoman, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Cyborg, and the Joker. Many of these Earths appear to be highly unstable and pre-apocalyptic, akin to the depiction of the Earths that were consumed during Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Worlds in the Dark Multiverse are designated with negative numbers, when they're designated at all: the Dark Multiverse always contained infinite Earths, even when the Multiverse only contained 52 Earths; and as such, it doesn't lend itself to numbering — especially as there are many ways to get failed variations of each of the Multiversal worlds.
| Designation | Notable Inhabitants | Notes | First appearance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Earth -52 | The Red Death, a dark anti-hero fusion of Batman and the Flash | On this Earth, Batman fused with the Flash to gain the power of the Speed Force, becoming the Red Death, after he had lost his significant family members, friends and non-metahuman allies. | Batman: The Red Death #1 (September 2017) |
| Earth -44 | The Murder Machine, a cyborg version of Batman | On this Earth, Batman merged himself with a digital copy of Alfred Pennyworth's mind after the real Pennyworth's death, becoming a murderous cyborg. | Batman: The Murder Machine #1 (September 2017) |
| Earth -32 | The Dawnbreaker, an evil Green Lantern version of Batman | On this Earth, young Bruce Wayne became a Green Lantern immediately following the death of his parents. Filled with rage, he disabled his ring's safeguard against lethal force and used its powers to murder criminals. | Batman: The Dawnbreaker #1 (October 2017) |
| Earth -22 | The Batman Who Laughs, an insane Batman and successor of his Earth's Joker after being driven over the edge from being intensely tortured by his nemesis | The Earth -22 Batman became the Batman Who Laughs following a climactic confrontation between the two antagonists, which drove an insane Batman into killing the Joker, while turning him into a new Joker from being subjected to Joker venom. | The Batman Who Laughs #1 (November 2017) |
| Earth -12 | The Merciless, an evil fusion of Batman and Ares | Like the core Multiverse's Earth 12, an alternate future-related reality, in which Wonder Woman dies in the course of unspecified combat, and in which Batman engineers a fusion with Ares in revenge for her death. | Batman: The Merciless #1 (October 2017) |
| Earth -11 | The Drowned, an evil female part-Atlantean version of Batman | Much like the regular Earth 11, all genders are reversed here On this world, Bryce Wayne mass-murdered all metahumans in revenge for the death of her lover Sylvester Kyle. When Atlantis made contact with the surface world, Bryce murdered their queen, Aquawoman, starting a war with Atlantis. She then had herself surgically altered to gain Atlantean powers. | Batman: The Drowned #1 (October 2017) |
| Earth -1 | The Devastator, a Doomsday version of Batman | On this Earth, Batman infected himself with the Doomsday virus and became a version of Doomsday in order to kill a rogue Superman. | Batman: The Devastator #1 (November 2017) |
The Cosmic Forge
The source of all worlds in the Multiverse. Worlds created by the Cosmic Forge rise up into the Dark Multiverse; the ones that do not fail there then find homes in the Multiverse.
Hypertime
Existing alongside the Omniverse, Hypertime consists of worlds that were created by divergences in the timestream. It is likely that every iteration of every world in the Omniverse has a counterpart in Hypertime. However, some worlds that exist in Hypertime do not appear to currently have counterparts in the Omniverse.
Worlds in Hypertime do not appear to have a consistent designation system, as the dynamic nature of Hypertime makes the pursuit of such a system a fool's errand. As such, all designations given here are inherently unreliable.
Likewise, a complete catalogue of Hypertime is impossible. What follows is a selection of worlds that do not appear to have a place in the current Local Multiverse, and likely only exist as alternate timelines or former futures, or are clearly features unique to the concept of Hypertime.

Arrowverse
Pre-Crisis
The CW television series Arrow received its first spin-off The Flash in 2014 with both set in the same fictional universe (Earth-1). The Flash's second season began to explore a shared multiverse with the appearance of Earth-2, while the series' titular character also crossed over with the parallel universe home to Supergirl (which was later designated Earth-38). Additional universes have either been visited or mentioned in dialogue in later seasons of the Arrowverse shows, and some older television series such as the 1990 The Flash series and films such as the 1989 Batman film have been retroactively incorporated into the Arrowverse multiverse as their own parallel universes (with the designation ending in the last two digits of the year it was released).
The 2019 crossover event titled "Crisis on Infinite Earths", inspired by the comic of the same name, destroyed all universes within the Arrowverse multiverse.

He initially appeared in an Arrow episode per a "one-time-only-deal." but later became a series regular on Legends of Tomorrow. Contains doppelgängers of Christina "Tina" McGee, Julio Mendez, Tony Bellows, James Montgomery Jesse / the Trickster, and Zoey Clark / Prank from The Flash (1990 TV series), aka Earth-90. In addition, Barry Allen's father Henry is a doppelgänger of that world's Flash's (see below). Batman has been missing in action since 2015, leaving Batwoman as Gotham City's sole superhero. Superman and Supergirl do not exist on this universe's Earth. This universe and its inhabitants, along with refugees from other Earths, were destroyed by an anti-matter wave in "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Three". | "Pilot" (Arrow – 1.01) |

Labs Particle Accelerator secretly exploded underground, rather than publicly above. One of the Snarts (Leonard, Lisa or Lewis) is Mayor of Central City. Jesse Wells, daughter of Harrison, serves as this world's speedster under the name Jesse Quick, as the name "Flash" was tainted by the actions of Zoom impersonating Earth-3's Jay Garrick. Moira Queen remarried to Malcolm Merlyn at some point. Thea Queen died of an overdose of the Vertigo drug. Tommy Merlyn operated as Dark Archer. A version of Bruce Wayne existed on this Earth, as he provided wisdom to Adrian Chase.

Following his being released, Garrick planned to retire and train a protege to take his place. As of 2019, Jay Garrick retired as the Flash due to his diminishing speed and settled down with Joan Williams.

Post-Crisis
At the end of "Crisis on Infinite Earths", a new multiverse was created, notably merging Earth-1, Earth-38, the Earth of Black Lightning into the new Earth-Prime, as well as creating new Earths, or restoring others. Guggenheim also confirmed the characters from Smallville who existed on the previous Earth-167 survived. Guggenheim had wanted there to only be the single, new Earth-Prime that remained at the end of the crossover, but had that happened, the crossover would not have been able to visit the worlds of other DC properties. A compromise was done, where these properties were put back to various Earths in the multiverse, and the Arrowverse series were combined to a single Earth.

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 this 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 on this Earth. The survivors hope that the Earth can be healed, but the nuclear aftermath has left them with scars that never will heal. |
| Gaslight (Earth-19) | The Victorian Era has swept through this 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 bringing 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 the darkness that threatens to engulf their world forever. |
| Mecha (Earth-44) | On this Earth, 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 robots. |
