DC's Non-DCAU Animated Timelines

[selfishmisery]

The Ruby Spears' DC cartoons (Superman (1988) and Plastic Man) have ties to the Super Friends universe, thus canon.

The Filmmation stuff I am not so sure about, especially the not-released-physically Superboy catoon. (Still looking for the Shazam cartoon dvd, only released in Brazil.)

https://superfriends.fandom.com/wiki/SuperFriends_in_Related_CartoonsI imagine Scooby-Doo can be excluded, lol. Brave and the Bold probably distinguished that version. Also, Legend of the Superheroes would not be included, duh.

Scooby Doo is an anomaly and I wouldn't even consider that recent Krypto Too animated film to be "canon” either.

Superman (1988) reusing a voice actor for Wonder Woman doesn't make that show canon to Super Friends. See Kevin Conroy's career.

Fair. Plastic Man for sure fits due to the Dr. Frankenstein tie.

Going through the TT / The Batman timeline.

 

[selfishmisery]

I did the research. Super Friends occurs from 1975 to 1985 in-universe.

 

[selfishmisery]

In the Superfriends episode “The Fear”, Bruce’s parents died after they walked out of Robin Hood at the Park Row theater. Thomas and Martha’s deaths in the comics typically occured on June 8th or June 26th.

Robin Hood came out in US theaters on June 26th, 1952.

Super Friends is shockingly entertaining and very consistent with the Filmation DC cartoon timelines…including that Superboy cartoon that hasn't been released physically.

 

[selfishmisery]

I dunno if this is every segment…

EDIT: Nope, just 10 of the 34.

 

[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.

 

[selfishmisery]

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.
