DC's Non-DCAU Animated Timelines

[selfishmisery]

This confirms both versions of DC Super Hero Girls are part of the comic multiverse. Not the animated one.

Added the Superboy cartoon to the Super Friends timeline.

Terrible cartoon btw. Every episode ends with them winking at the audience.

 

[selfishmisery]

Some of those Plastic Man segments with Baby Plas and the Plastic Family are lost media… dammit.

 

[selfishmisery]

Okay, MeTV has aired all the Plastic Man stuff, side-segments and all, in very decent quality.

They're not lost media but some of it is difficult for the public to get a hold of.

 

[selfishmisery]

A few things regarding the first timeline: 70 more episodes of Super Friends, 36 episodes of The New Adventures of Superman, and god knows how many flashbacks and time travel episodes I gotta skim through for timestamps...

 

[selfishmisery]

This will help with the Legion of Superheroes timeline.

Bat-Fam is actually not that bad.
I can enjoy it as a adult and it's not annoyingly kiddy to where it's unwatchable.

Also, I love Luke Wilson. Best version of Pat Dugan via Stargirl.

Almost done with the Batman: The Brave and the Bold timeline

While I disagree with Teen Titans Go being the 5th dimension I do think it is a weirder reality than most other earths. In the DC Superhero Girls crossover in the end credits scene with the super friends, the TTG universe is called the "Crossover Dimension" iirc

This could explain why so many other series occur in their universe (Beetlejuice film continuity, Space Jam, Loonatics Unleashed, etc) while also connecting multiversally to a lot of non-dc earths as well like thundercats

Dimensions are not universes.
I'm aware of that line, and by 5th Dimension logic - anything goes. It's all imagination based and chaotic in nature.

 

[selfishmisery]

Since the Kamadi future in Brave and the Bold show ends with the Earth blown the hell up by Joker, I will read that as a Post-Crisis version of Earth-51, not Earth-23. The Legion wouldn't exist and that future just can't transition into a Utopia in the 31st Century.

Something to note about the animated Earth numbers, the reason MAWS got them a bit mixed up is the animators accidentally(?) switched the Supermen for each line, like if you can find the leaked script from before the show came out (I don't have access to it anymore I don't think) it says that Earth-508 that Mxy mentions was supposed to be Super friends Superman and not the DCAU, I forget if DCAU was Earth-12 or 50 in the script it's been awhile but I remember Super friends being 508 because that's always been the consistent number for the brand ever since the Wonder Woman Encyclopedia

Apparently Legion of Superheroes and Batman: The Brave and the Bold have easter eggs to each other, too.

They can't be Earth-66, though. I mean... Earth-66 Batman literally showed up in this one through the multiverse.

It could be canon to 66 if we assume the 66 one that showed up in the multiverse was just a similar variant or something. Similar to how Super friends and Scooby Doo Batman are practically the same universe as well

Interesting. But the League of Lois' say it's Earth-12.

True, it's weird 2 different earths are called Earth 12 in the episode. Probably weren't thinking about it when they did it I guess

I assume he means that Earth-66 Batman's appearance was created "to be canon w/'66"?

 

[Pro Bot]

I think he meant The Brave and the Bold. That cameo was extremely brief and unlikely to have been brought up...

DCAU used to be Earth-12 I guess and now it's...New Earth-2 I guess post-crisis?

My current theory on GL:TAS stuff is that it more or less occured in the YJ universe and that Aya was blasted into another universe, that universe being the JL Action universe. JLA Adventures Trapped In Time was also stated to be canon to GLTAS, it was said to happen during the space episodes of GLTAS but if we factor in YJ that can't be the case because cyborg is present so it has to be sometime after YJ s4

The versions of characters in Crisis Part 3 were stated to not be the actual versions so the Aya and Razor there don't exactly matter too much in the grand scheme of things,

I miss when there wasn't some dumb stupid "adjacent" canon thing. Why can't we just put things together in a clean way and say... "yeah. This is all one thing." It's just so messy.

Just headcanon that Hal and Killowog were joking around just pretending to not know Guy or John and it's fine I think, it's just those 2 little lines that trick things up a bit. Same thing with Catwoman Hunted, you can just assume Chesire and the League of Assasins called a temporary truce or something for that mission

 

[user 16960]

Greg Weisman is just odd about canon. Idk if you know about his weird thing with Gargoyles and Atlantis. I wonder if he considers the Gargoyles Fantastic Four crossover comic as canon... That would be an insane reality, the Marvel Crossover Universe being Canon to the Hasbro IDW universe but as well as being the Gargoyles canon universe

Hmm... How compatible is the DC Showcase short with the tie-in comic?

Oh god, don't even make me think about it.

The tie in comic is a dream Green Arrow is having in a coma so it could have made him misremember things slightly differently because it's a dream, but iirc the showcase has some inconsistencies with YJ but you could say those are retconned idk. I'm not too familiar with Young Justice in general haven't watched in over a decade I'm mostly going off of research

Lol well with the Marvel Crossover Universe including the Tutenstein tie in comic with marvel characters I guess you can also throw in the Tutenstein cartoon too since I doubt the comic contradicts that really obscure cartoon

Nobody gives a **** about Tutenstein in 2026.

 

[selfishmisery]

With that said, I gotta hunt the pricey af Hero High dvds cause they arent watchable online.

 

[user 16960]

The only reason I know about it is Tom Perkins (the Ben 10 OS character designed) worked on it. Also because of the before mentioned Marvel Comic

I was quipping, wasn't being malicious.
