With DC having a on and off Multiverse and the old elseworlds line along with the new earth one series I've been wondering, What do you consider the best stories that take place not on the main DC earth?

Gotham by Gaslight has always been my favorite.

An Elseworlds tale across two volumes which is very good and not incredibly well known is in JLA: The Nail and JLA: Another Nail. Alan Davis' art is great, there's an air of mystery to the sprawling tales, and Batman, among others, has some excellent moments.
The premise is: How would the DCU have turned out if Superman had never debuted?

Kingdom come, Gotham by Gaslight, Superman Red Son and (so far) Multiversity. I will probably think of more soon

It's a pretty tough question. There a lot of stories not in official continuity than are great. And i many different periods. I think the question needs to be more specific. Are we talking about alternate stories than include:
Possible futures? (DC 1000000; Kingdome Come; Dark Knight Returns)
Other characters?(Watchmen)
What if like scenarios? (The nail; Speeding Bullets; Red Son),
Elseworlds? Other times? (Gotham by Gaslight);
Pre crisis Imaginary stories? (Whatever happened to the man of tomorrow? Superman Red, Superman Blue. Yes people, there were comics before we were born. Wow)."Never assign to malice what is adequately explained by stupidity or ignorance."
