List of DC Multiverse worlds

The DC Multiverse is a fictional continuity construct that is used in DC Comics publications. The Multiverse has undergone numerous changes and has included various universes, listed below between the original Multiverse and its successors.

Original Multiverse

Cataloged

Originally there was no consistency regarding "numbered" Earths—they would be either spelled out as words or use numbers even within the same story. For example, "Crisis on Earth-Three!" (Justice League of America (vol. 1) #29, August 1964) uses "Earth-3" and "Earth-Three" interchangeably. However, a tradition of spelling out the numbers emerged in "The Most Dangerous Earth" (Justice League of America (vol. 1) #30, September 1964). This convention was disregarded in Crisis on Infinite Earths, and it became common practice to refer to the various Earths with numerals instead. Infinite Crisis reverted to the original practice, but 52 and Countdown have referred to the alternate universes with numerals.

Designation	Era	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 an homage to Bizarro World, with its population of Bizarros and 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: Police scientist Barry Allen as the Flash; test pilot Hal Jordan as Green Lantern; Thanagarian Katar Hol as Hawkman; scientist Ray Palmer as the Atom; and Clark Kent (Kal-El), who as a teenager became Superboy before his career as Superman.	The default Earth for most of DC's comics during the time the original Multiverse construct was in use, Earth-One was by far the most populated and widely explored, and it retained dominance over the other four worlds which merged with it during the Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline. The DC Universe's "official" continuity post-Crisis took place on a merged Earth-One, as the Crisis revealed that this universe had been the core reality until the rogue Guardian Krona fractured reality at the dawn of creation, creating both the Multiverse and the Antimatter Universe. First described as a distinct Earth in Flash (vol. 1) #123 (September 1961), first named in Justice League of America (vol. 1) #21 (August 1963)	More Fun Comics #101 (January 1945)
Earth-Two	Pre-Crisis	DC's Golden Age heroes, including the Justice Society of America, whose careers began at the dawn of World War II (concurrently with their first appearances in comics): Chemistry student Jay Garrick as the Flash; radio engineer Alan Scott as Green Lantern; archaeologist Carter Hall as Hawkman; pint-sized powerhouse Al Pratt as the Atom; and Clark Kent (Kal-L), who began his career as Superman as an adult.	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 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 (the model was the Atlantis seen in Golden Age Wonder Woman stories). First described as a distinct Earth in Flash (vol. 1) #123 (September 1961), first named in Justice League of America #21 (August 1963)	New Fun Comics #1 (February 1935)
Earth-Three	Pre-Crisis	Crime Syndicate of America, evil versions of the Earth-One heroes (Ultraman, Superwoman, Owlman, Power Ring, Johnny Quick); the heroic Alexander Luthor; and briefly, Alexander Luthor, Jr.	History was "backwards": American Christopher Columbus discovered Europe; 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.	Justice League of America (vol. 1) #29 (August 1964)
Earth-Four	Crisis on Infinite Earths	The former Charlton Comics heroes: Captain Atom, Blue Beetle, Nightshade, Peacemaker, The Question, Thunderbolt (Peter Cannon), and Judomaster	This Earth was introduced at the beginning of Crisis, and disappeared less than a year later.

Named in Absolute Crisis On Infinite Earths (2006)	"To Kill a Legend" Detective Comics #500 (March 1981)
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 (Lord Volt is referred to as the king, and he mentions his family's reign over Earth). 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	Dark Angel, an evil analogue of Donna Troy	The Anti-Monitor saved Dark Angel, just as the Monitor had saved her counterpart Harbinger. The only known survivor of Earth-Seven, Dark Angel escaped the compression of the Multiverse to torment Donna Troy across several lifetimes.	DC Special: The Return of Donna Troy #4 (October 2005)

Earth-Fourteen	Pre-Crisis	New Gods	The world where all pre-Crisis non-Kirby Fourth World tales took place according to Mark Evanier's speculation in the text page of New Gods (1984 reprint series) #1.

Earth-Thirty Two	Pre-Crisis	Almost exact counterparts of Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Carol Ferris, and others	After Carol Ferris professed her love for Hal Jordan instead of Green Lantern and accepted his marriage proposal, he eventually figured out that he had somehow shifted into a parallel universe, which he compared to the home of the JSA and labeled Earth-32.

Earth-B	Pre-Crisis	Versions of various Earth-One and Earth-Two characters	This Earth was never specifically depicted, but was suggested to exist in a letters column by DC editor/writer Bob Rozakis as a possible explanation for certain non-continuity stories or character traits (for example, stories that showed Catwoman committing murder with no qualms, despite being established that she did not engage in that kind of activity); tongue-in-cheek, Rozakis designated it "Earth-B" in "honor" of writer Bob Haney, whose Brave and the Bold stories were then-notorious examples of such continuity errors. ICG's Official Crisis Crossover Index theorized that DC Challenge took place on this Earth which given the involvement of Oan Guardians would make it an alternate Earth-One timeline.	Debatable
Earth-C	Pre-Crisis	Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew: Captain Carrot, Alley-Kat-Abra, Fastback, Little Cheese, Pig-Iron, Rubberduck, and Yankee Poodle	This world is populated with anthropomorphic animals.

Earth-C-Minus	Pre-Crisis	Just'a Lotta Animals: Super-Squirrel, Wonder Wabbit, the Batmouse, Green Lambkin, Aquaduck, and the Crash	This Earth (like Earth-C) is populated by anthropomorphic animals. Events and characters on this world paralleled those of Earth-One; additionally, events and characters on Earth-C-Minus were considered fictional on Earth-C (with Captain Carrot's alter-ego employed as the cartoonist of the Just'a Lotta Animals comic book series), in the vein of Earth-Two heroes' only appearing as comic book characters on Earth-One and Earth-Prime. Earth-C's Terrific Whatzit also existed as a fictional comic character that the Crash had read as a youth, paralleling the relationship of Earth-One's Barry Allen enjoying comics about Earth-Two's Jay Garrick.	Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew #14 (April 1983)
Earth-D	Post-Crisis retcon of Crisis on Infinite Earths itself.	Justice Alliance of America	Earth-D featured a more ethnically diverse version of several Earth-One heroes, such as an Asian Flash, a black Superman, and an American Indian Green Arrow.

Earth-Q (All Star Superman)	Infinite Crisis	Regular Humans	A world created by Superman to see if a world without a Superman, nor any superheroes, could work.

Earth-Q would later become the sentient universe known as Nebula Man, a frequent enemy of the Seven Soldiers of Victory. The International Ultramarine Corps briefly became heroes in this universe after they failed to save Superbia from an attack from Gorilla Grodd and the Sheeda.	JLA: Classified #1 (January 2005)
Earth-Q	Infinite Crisis	Unknown	One of three Earths named by Alexander Luthor in Infinite Crisis in his search for the perfect Earth; Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Robin, Superboy, and Supergirl are Aztec warriors with the "Superman Family" (Superman, Supergirl, and Superboy) and the "Batman Family" (Batman, Robin, and Wonder Woman) fighting against each other.

(unnamed)	Pre-Crisis	Alternate Wonder Woman named Tara Terruna and Duke Dazam	The first parallel Earth to be featured in DC Comics was visited by the Earth-2 Wonder Woman, who worked with her counterpart to battle the conqueror Duke Dazam.

Antimatter Universe	Pre-Crisis	Anti-Monitor, Weaponers of Qward, the Thunderers	Qward's universe has been described as a "universe of evil".

The Antimatter Universe held a special place in the Multiverse: there was an infinite number of "positive-matter universes" separated from each other by vibrational planes, and there was a single Antimatter Universe.	Green Lantern (vol. 2) #2 (October 1960)
Magic-Land	Pre-Crisis	King Arthur, Merlin, Simon Magus, Saturna the "Lord of Misrule" and the "Troll King"	In this medieval universe, magic works within its laws of physics. It appears to be pre-industrial in terms of its technological base. Its continents are named "Olympus" (Asia), "Asgard" (North and South America) and Oceania (Australia). Camelot exists as a significant population centre. Transposed with Earth-One. Justice League, Merlin and Arthur resolved the situation and restored Earth-One and Magic-Land to their respective original universes.

Before the formal creation of its Multiverse, DC would use the "imaginary story" label to denote stories that did not fit and were never intended to fit into its canon—a tradition it would continue even after the creation of the Multiverse. Alan Moore's "What Ever happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" (Action Comics vol. 1 #583 and Superman vol. 1 #423) in 1986 was the last pre-Crisis story to use the label.

By contrast, other stories were clearly intended to be canonical, but various details were wrong or there were stories told in other media that were never said not to be canonical. As a result, fans and editors would create other Earths to explain things like the Super Friends comic (set on what fans referred to as Earth-1A). Also there were many "one shot" Earths (such as the reality shown in "Superman, You're Dead, Dead, Dead" in Action Comics vol. 1 #399), which were never named and for which few details were provided.

After the first Crisis, several new universes appeared despite DC's intentions to the contrary. These included parallel universes in the Darkstars and Justice League series. In addition, DC ran a number of crossovers with other companies that involved travel between different realities. Technically, none of these worlds were ever part of the Multiverse.

This was until the Infinite Crisis mini-series retroactively labeled the Tangent Comics universe and many Elseworlds as Earths of the Multiverse, even though they had been published long after the Multiverse was destroyed. Infinite Crisis did the same with many pre-Crisis Imaginary Tales.

In the "With A Vengeance!" storyline in Superman/Batman, the Multiverse is visited by Bizarro and Batzarro. The Joker and Mr. Mxyzptlk summon Batmen and Supermen from various realities, both previously established worlds as well as unexplored ones.

Designation	Era	Inhabitants	Notes	First Appearance
Post-Crisis Earth	Post-Crisis	All residents of the reconstituted Earth formed following Crisis on Infinite Earths	This universe has various derivations explained as manifestations of Hypertime and influenced by the actions of Superboy-Prime. This world blends elements of the last five universes existing prior to the Crisis. This world existed until the events of Infinite Crisis and the creation of New Earth. This world is dubbed "Earth 2" by the Antimatter Lex Luthor who dubs his own world "Earth 1". Fans have often called this "Earth-Sigma," as Sigma means summation—in this case, the summation of five other universes.	Crisis on Infinite Earths #11 (February 1986)
Red Son	Elseworlds	Soviet versions of Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, along with an alternate version of the Green Lantern Corps	An Earth where Superman landed in a Soviet commune instead of Smallville. Bizarro visited this Earth during the Superman/Batman "With A Vengeance!" storyarc. Although debuted in Superman: Red Son #1, an early cameo appearance of this Earth's Superman is seen in 1999's The Kingdom #2.	Superman: Red Son #1 (June 2003)
Anti-Matter Universe	Post-Crisis	Crime Syndicate of America: Ultraman, Superwoman, Owlman, Power Ring, and Johnny Quick; Justice Underground: Alexander Luthor, Sir Solomon Grundy, General Grodd, Q-Ranger, Lady Sonar, Star Sapphire, and the Quizmaster	A post-Crisis Antimatter Earth with a Crime Syndicate whose motto is "Cui Bono?" ("Who profits?"), inspired by the pre-Crisis Earth-Three. Originally, the Luthor of the CSA Earth, upon discovering the positive-matter Earth, named his world "Earth 1" and the positive-matter Earth "Earth 2" (no hyphens). Subsequent appearances revised the naming convention and simply referred to it as the Antimatter Universe's Earth, and also established that the CSA's Earth existed in the same Antimatter Universe as Qward.	JLA: Earth 2 (January 2000)
The Fourth World	Pre- & Post-Crisis	Darkseid, Orion, Mister Miracle, and Big Barda	The Fourth World is a continuum inhabited by the New Gods. Its two main worlds, New Genesis and Apokolips, are mirror reflections of each other: New Genesis, the bright, glorious home ruled by Highfather, and Apokolips, the fiery, horrific home of the evil warlord Darkseid and his minions. Inhabitants of these worlds have been frequent visitors to the Earth-One and post-Crisis Earth, but it has been shown that they could venture into any number of alternate worlds. The Fourth World was not affected by the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths.	Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen #133 (October 1970)
The Dakotaverse	Pre-Zero Hour	Icon, Rocket, Static, Hardware, and the Blood Syndicate	In 1993, word of a gang war on Paris Island resulted in Mayor Jefferson ordering enforcement officials to spray every gang member present with an experimental tear gas laced with a radioactive marker that would allow the police to track the participants down later. Survivors then became known as "bang babies" and were given mutagenic abilities. Following the death of Darkseid (as chronicled in Final Crisis in 2009), the space-time continuum was torn asunder, threatening the existence of both the Dakotaverse and the mainstream DC universe (containing New Earth). Dharma was able to use energies that he harnessed from Rift (upon that being's defeat) to merge the two universes, creating an entirely new continuity.	Hardware #1 (April 1993)

The 52

A new Multiverse was revealed at the end of the 52 weekly limited series. 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, creating new, distinct Earths with their own histories and people, such as the Nazi-themed version of the Justice League that exists in Earth-10. Each of the alternate universes have their own parallel dimensions, divergent timelines, microverses, etc., branching off 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 Anti-Life keeps the universes apart. The Bleed permeates the Anti-Life in unpredictable places behind the Source Wall, allowing for transport between the universes. The destruction of New Earth would set off a chain reaction that would destroy the other fifty-one alternate universes at the same time, leaving only the Antimatter Universe in existence. As a consequence of Alexander Luthor's attempts to recreate the Multiverse, fifty-two new Monitors were created to oversee the fifty-two 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".

A partial list of some of the alternate universes that make up the new Multiverse was revealed in late November 2007.

Designation	Era	Inhabitants	Notes	First Appearance
New Earth (also known as Earth-0)	Infinite Crisis	Characters from DC Comics' main continuity	After the destruction of Alexander Luthor's Multiverse Tower in Infinite Crisis, the parallel Earths that had been created were merged into a new single world dubbed "New Earth". New Earth remained the core reality of the DC Multiverse until the events of Flashpoint. New Earth is a composite of the pre-Crisis Earth-One, the pre-Crisis Earth-Two, the pre-Crisis Earth-Four, the pre-Crisis Earth-S, the pre-Crisis Earth-X, and the Dakotaverse. Merged with Earth-13 and Earth-50 in the wake of the Flashpoint event and had its history rewritten as a result, creating The New 52.	Infinite Crisis #6 (May 2006)

This world's political relationships were affected by the escalation of the Cuban Missile Crisis into a fully-fledged US/Soviet nuclear exchange in 1962, which incinerated Florida and Cuba. The United States provided covert operations in Czechoslovakia in 1968, and the Soviet Union still exists as a superpower in the 1990s. Characters from this Earth appeared in Ion #9 & 10, Justice League of America (vol. 2) #16 and the subsequent Tangent: Superman's Reign limited series.

Earth-Prime	Post-52	Superboy-Prime and the 2004 incarnation of the Legion of Super-Heroes	Similar to our world, superheroes exist only in fiction, outside of Superboy-Prime and the 2004 incarnation of the Legion of Super-Heroes.	Final Crisis: Legion of 3 Worlds #5 (July 2009)
Antimatter Universe	Post-Zero Hour	The Anti-Monitor, the Crime Syndicate of Amerika, the Sinestro Corps, the Warlock of Ys, and the Weaponers of Qward	The Antimatter Universe is a "universe of evil". It survived the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths and Infinite Crisis and exists alongside the fifty-two positive-matter alternate universes.	Green Lantern (vol. 2) #2 (October 1960)
Limbo	Post-Crisis	"Forgotten" characters such as Merryman of the Inferior Five and Hard Hat of the Demolition Team	Exists outside of the Multiverse. The first DC Universe appearance of "Limbo" was in Grant Morrison's "Animal Man" series, in which Morrison takes the concept of "comic book limbo" (where forgotten characters go when they're not being published) and makes it literal. First post-Infinite Crisis appearance is in Final Crisis: Superman Beyond. Not only is all memory of the inhabitants removed from the Multiverse, but even they eventually forget who they are. The "Library of Limbo" contains only one book, The Infinite Book, which contains the story of all existence and has been described as the one story that contains all other stories.	Animal Man (vol. 1) #25 (July 1990)

Multi-Multiverse

The New 52

The Flashpoint story arc ended with a massive change to the Multiverse; to what extent it's entirely new, and to what extent it's 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 is set, is now occupied by post-apocalyptic waterworld analogues of Batman and other DC staples. In July 2014, a map of the Multiverse was released, in promotion of Grant Morrison's The Multiversity series.

There are 52 Earths in the local Multiverse home to the DCU Prime Earth, though due to the time-traveling interventions of Brainiac, the Hal Jordan of the pre-Zero Hour New Earth DCU, and Superman of the pre-Flashpoint New Earth altering the course of the Crisis on Infinite Earths, an infinite number of universes from previous incarnations of the Multiverse exist beyond these 52. This new model of creation involves multiple incarnations of the Multiverse suspended within a "Multi-Multiverse", with individual Multiverses existing as 'bubble' sets of grouped universes such as the local 52.

Designation	Inhabitants	Notes	First appearance
Orrery of Worlds
Earth-0 (also known as Prime Earth and New Earth)	Characters from DC Comics' main continuity	Shares a similar history with the previous amalgamated Earths. This Earth was created by merging Earth-0, Earth-13, and Earth-50 from the previous Multiverse in the wake of the Flashpoint event.	Flashpoint #5 (August 2011)
Earth-1	A superhero community just starting out on a contemporary Earth	The setting of the Earth One graphic novel series. Only known heroes so far are Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and the Teen Titans (corresponding with announced Earth One graphic novels so far)	Superman: Earth One (December 2010)
Earth-2	Younger versions of DC's pre-Crisis Golden Age characters	This world mainly features modernised versions of DC's heroes from the Golden Age of Comics and characters associated with later Justice Society and Infinity Inc comics. Notable character differences among many include a younger, gay version of Alan Scott, the Golden Age Green Lantern, who leads the Wonders; Superman is succeeded by Val-Zod, a black-skinned Kryptonian pacifist; Aquawoman (Marella) is the Queen of Atlantis; Terry Sloan, formerly known as Mr 8, is a universe-hopping villain; and Oliver Queen is the Red Arrow. The backstory for Earth 2 stories is that Apokolips invaded five years prior to Earth 2 #1, killing Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman.

Infinite Crisis

Main article: Infinite Crisis (video game)

Designation	Description
Prime (Earth-0)	Home to legends like Superman, Wonder Woman, and Batman, 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 Earth. Blinded by ambition, the Shadow League performed a ritual that extinguished the Sun. With eternal night blanketing the 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 Earth. The survivors hope the Earth can be healed, but the nuclear aftermath has left them with scars that never will.
Gaslight (Earth-19)	The Victorian era has swept the 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 bring new sources of power and problems far stranger than steam and gas lights.
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 darkness that threatens to engulf their world forever.
Mecha (Earth-44)	In this universe, 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 bots.

Smallville

This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.

Designation	Inhabitants	Notes	First Appearance
Earth-1	Characters of the television series Smallville.	The main universe of Smallville, where Superman's adventures take place. Its designation is unknown but it was indicated that it is not the Prime Earth. It remains unclear if this comment will turn out to be true or not. This Earth has also been referred to as "Earth-1."	"Pilot" (1.01)
Earth-2	Different counterparts of the characters	This Earth is probably mistakenly referred to as Earth-2, as its real designation is unknown. When shown, it was always in grey and dull colors. Operating as a metaphorical mirror, all of its residents appeared to be similar and yet different from those of their Earth-1 counterparts. The main difference of this Earth from the other universes is that Kal-El of Krypton was raised by Lionel Luthor instead of the Kents, like on the main Smallville Earth, and as a result he became his world's most powerful super villain, Ultraman. Travel between Earth-2 and the main Earth of Smallville was achieved through the Kryptonian mirror box, or through Jor-El's Fortress of Solitude. It was revealed that Earth-2 was destroyed by the Monitors. Its last survivor was Chloe Sullivan, who succeeded to travel to the main Earth of Smallville but was later killed there by the Monitors.	"Luthor" (10.10)
Earth-9		This Earth was destroyed when it was torn asunder by collision with Earth-37, toppling into one another, because of a Bleed quake caused by a Monitor who did not follow the protocol.
Earth-13		This Earth was a parallel universe that co-existed as one with the Earth of the main Smallville universe. Not much is known about this universe as it was never shown, only merely mentioned. Its main feature was that its version of Clark Kent was a normal human and a wannabe hero, rather than a Kryptonian with super powers, and Bruce Wayne instead of being a superhero is actually a psychopathic killer. Like many other universes, this Earth was also decimated. Earth-13 was destroyed when Earth-9 and 37 were torn asunder by collision, toppling into one another and shattering reality on Earth-13, because of a Bleed quake caused by a Monitor who did not follow the protocol. Its version of Clark managed to travel to the main Earth of Smallville. Unfortunately, he was followed by Bruce and he was killed by him there. Bruce Wayne remains the last survivor of his Earth, as he is held prisoner on Mars.
Earth-37		This Earth was destroyed when it was torn asunder by collision with Earth-9, toppling into one another, because of a Bleed quake caused by a Monitor who did not follow the protocol.
Earth-Apocalypse		An alternate timeline where Clark's ship did not arrive on Earth. As a result, Lex Luthor, as the President of the United States, orders a nuclear war that ends most of the world.	"Apocalypse" (7.13)
Earth-Majestic		It is referred to as Earth-Majestic and its designation is unknown. It derives this name from its greatest superhero Mister Majestic, the alternate version of Superman. This Earth is the latest target of the Monitors, as they have already started the process to decimate it. It was later destroyed like the other Earths before it with the consciousness of Jor-El being the last survivor of this universe.
Earth-Omega		It is referred to as Earth "Omega" and its designation is unknown. It derives this name from the Omega symbol, which is used by Darkseid. This Earth was attacked and seized by Apokolips and the two planets have collided with each other. Among the ruins are several fallen ships that belonged to the Monitors, wrecked Manhunters and skeletons of dead people. This Earth hasn't been destroyed entirely yet because when the Monitors arrived there, Darkseid had already conquered that world. A catastrophic battle followed between the two parts, destroying almost everything around them. However the Monitors, who even though suffered many casualties, succeeded to break Darkseid. After Superman made a deal with Darkseid, he gave him the crystal shard that contains the presence of Jor-El from Earth-Majestic. Darkseid threw the shard into the distance and a fortress of solitude formed, with Darkseid saying it could be a new beginning, a "New Genesis."
