It's likely that each "Earth" in the Multiverse was actually a collection of related dimensions instead of a single physical reality for example, the Fourth World may well have been a parallel dimension within "Earth-One". The pre-Crisis Anti-Matter Universe was explicitly a world that existed in parallel to the Infinite Earths (after Krona looked at the beginning of time, the matter universe split into the Multiverse, while the anti-matter universe remained untouched). In particular, if you define the Multiverse in terms of "timelines separated from each other by vibrational barriers", then the Anti-Matter Universe (both pre- and post-Crisis versions), the Fourth World, and the Pocket Universe (of post-Crisis LoSH fame) were never "Earths" of the Multiverse:

~CS 00:58, 18 November 2006 (UTC) Non-Multiverse dimensions ĭepending on your definition, "Multiverse" may or may nor include every alternate dimension ever to show up in a DC comic. Obviously none of us have read every comic out there that pertains to this topic - but I'm unsure where some of these Earth-#'s are coming from. 68.54.171.237 04:17, 2 February 2007 (UTC) I might also add, while I'm here, that I'm skeptical of a number of the Earth-names after. I'm going to repair the information regarding this story and slap a fact tag on the Earth-5 designation until someone can clarify.Įarth-5 is named and numbered in the Absolute Crisis hardcover.

As far as I know, the first and only appearence of this story is in Dectective Comics #500 - "To Kill A Legend." I do not recall it appearing in Crisis and I believe the Earth-5 marking is an error. I'm not much interested in coninuity issues - but I'm familiar with Batman and the story this is a reference to. Somebody who does know the material needs to check the description. - Długosz I just stumbled across this while looking something up. It might be missing a "not", but I don't know what it is supposed to say. The character in question is a strong Tintin homage, but considering his world was devastated in a nuclear war, I think saying it IS Tintin is a stretch. I just got Absolute Crisis, and checked on the comic it referenced as a source ( Teen Titans Spotlight #11).I haven't seen the source material - is this accurate? Does "Earth-eleven" have the Belgin (not French) Tintin character in it? j-beda 17:04, 11 September 2006 (UTC) contribs) 21:55, 6 March 2011 (UTC) The intro explains this.- BruceGrubb ( talk) 18:03, 18 April 2011 (UTC) Tintin?.What is this arabic thing? It seems like 1,2,3,4 (regular chronological order) and what is the argument in the second part (about switching to a spelled out numeric designation) and why is it relevant for an intro? - Preceding unsigned comment added by Relakit ( talk Is it just me or does that paragraph make no sense? If it does, it is very hard to understand. The idea that the numeric designation is used to distinguish the newer fictional Multiverse from the previous one because the older one used spelled-out numeric designations, such as "Earth-One" and "Earth-Two", is disproved by the fact that Earth-3 used the Arabic numeric designation upon its creation in 1963, switched to a spelled-out numeric designation in 1964, and then back again with its destruction in 1985." "After the publication of Infinite Crisis and 52, the Multiverse is again being used in print by DC Comics and consists of fifty-two alternate universes which are referred to by their Arabic numeral designations of the alternate Earths within them ("New Earth", "Earth-1", "Earth-2", "Earth-3", etc.). 43 External links modified (January 2018).35 Public Awareness of Multiverse in FC#7.33 Fair use rationale for Image:Newdcearth.jpg.32 Fair use rationale for Image:DCMultiverse.jpg.31 Meeting of Superboy(Earth-One) and the teenaged Clark Kent(Earth-Two).27 The Naming of Earth-One and Earth-Two.26 Placement: pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths, post-Crisis on Infinite Earths, Infinite Crisis, 52.22 Earth-3 Crime Syndicate vs Crime Society.
