    Earth-2020 — Three generations of Supermen (Superman v1 #354 et al.)

    Note: the list is not comprehensive: is a number isn't listed, that doesn't mean that an Earth doesn't exist in that spot. Quite the contrary; one can assume that every natural number has an Earth; we just haven't been told what's in the spots that have been skipped.

    [EDIT: we have now been shown two of those.

    Earth-247: home of the post-Zero Hour Legion of Superheroes.
    Earth-1993: home of the original Dakotaverse.

    /EDIT]

    The first 52 Earths are identical to Morrison's Multiverse, but with the “seven Unknown Earths” filled in. The later numbers are either made up out of whole cloth, based on the issue number that they first appeared in, or based on the year that they first appeared. This is similar to the scheme used to catalog many pre-Crisis Earths; so it would be safe to say that world numbers catalogued in Crisis on Infinite Earths: Absolute Edition which don't conflict with this list exist, and are still the same. In fact, some of these new Earths are the same as their pre-Crisis counterparts, as far as I can tell: they are Earths 54, 59, 124, 148, 162, 183, 216, 387, 898, and 2020. Pre-Crisis numerical designations that haven't been claimed in the new Multiverse and haven't been renumbered are: Earths 57, 64, 85, 89, 91, 95, 116, 117, 127, 132, 134, 136, 146, 149, 154, 159, 166, 167, 170, 172, 175, 178, 184, 192, 200, 215, 224, 230, 235, 238, 265, 270, 276, 300, 332, 353, 377, 383, 388, 391, 395, 399, 404, 410, 417, 423, 462, 508, 523, 677, 686, 702, 922, 988, 1098, 1099, 1101, 1163, 1198, 1289, 1863, 1876, 1888, 1927, 1938, and 5050.

    Two original Multiverse Earth's deserve special attention: Earth 235 is the designation given for the Realworlds fifth-week events, which could either stand on its own or be folded into Earth 33; and Earth 247, while not on this list, has been confirmed as part of the new Multiverse in teasers for the upcoming Legion of Four Worlds.

    The worlds that aren't numbered, or that have numbers that conflict, are more questionable: in theory, the Infinite Earths has room for everything, and you merely need to assign a new natural number to each of those Earths (e.g., pre-Crisis Earth 2 might now be Earth-1961, based on the year that Flash of Two Worlds was published); but in practice, “Infinite” isn't the same as “Everything”; and some of those “orphaned Earths” may be completely absent from the Infinite Earths. Non-numbered Earths are: Earths C-minus and C-plus, D, G, I, Q, Quality; I-Earth, M-Earth, and R-Earth; Earth-Terra, Jimmy Olsen's Earth C, and Crossover Earth.

    The “archived Earths” from Doomsday Clock aren't listed here. My pet theory is that they're on the Hypertime side of the Divine Continuum; the way they spawn whenever Earth 0 changes matches the way Hypertime operates, and it means that we don't have to find places for them in the Omniverse. More generally, I'd also be inclined to put other “Earths” that are either “altered histories” (e.g., “Earth B”, the world that resulted from an evil Johnny Thunder messing with the timeline to replace the JLA with criminals) or “possible futures” in Hypertime instead of assigning “vibrational signatures” to them.

    Earth-1996 is Amalgam Comics.... in Marvel's multiverse, that's Earth-9602 - both designations refer to the fact Amalgam is from 1996, but Marvel must've used the month instead of the century.

    I notice that the continuities of the 1978 Superman and 1989 Batman have been merged, as have the silver age Superboy comics and the Super Friends cartoon

    Earth-2's entry is wrong, as the Earth-2 counterparts of the JSA were called Wonders of the World, not Justice Society of America.

    The final issue of Earth 2: Society ended with a meeting of Earth 2's Justice Society.

    Excellent, cover was a false alarm. Waid didn't drag one of DC's only good books in this muck.

    Yet. Again, the list isn't comprehensive; there may very well be a Historia-based Earth.

    I would have expected the Christopher Reeve Superman to be in the same universe as the Adam West Batman, not the Keaton one.

    I feel bad Weisman. He and his team go out of their way to ask DV for an Earth designation. They give them Earth 16 and then just dont acknowledge it.

    I look forward to most, if not all of these either rarely being used or never being used until they need worlds to kill off in the next event.

    The best option for Earth 2 would be to merge the two seperate takes. Robinson's Earth 2 had great worldbuilding while John's JSA is about legacy. Having the Infinity Inc come of age after Darkseid's attack would've been a better hook.

    I'm more into the DCU being seperate. So I would've preffered Wildstorm and Milestone on their own Earths like the Sandman Universe. Any room for an Earth M and W?

    Especially compared to what ended up being the "canon" Earth-16.

    Earth 93 is the “Dakotaverse”; that is, Milestone.

    The multiverse has struggled to retain a consistent version of Earth-Two/-2 post-Infinite Crisis.

    The first version, which appeared in the final pages of 52 had a version of Huntress who wore a dog collar. Wonder Woman was still active, GL alive etc. etc. This earth and version of Huntress briefly reappeared in Justice Society of America 11 before being replaced by the Earth-2 which was home to the Justice Society Infinity. On this version of Earth-2, GL was deceased, WW inactive and Queen of the Amazons. The art was styled on the late bronze-age JSA/Infinity Inc.

    This was wiped out by Flashpoint, giving us the Wonders of the World.

    Infinite Frontier suggested that Earth-2 had reverted to either the original Earth-Two or the JSI Earth-2. A ‘classic’ looking Huntress appears.

    And now, it seems that Earth-2 has once again changed to the post-Flashpoint version.

    Neither are listed Dark Knignt Returns, or Watchmen. So cool off.
