The Canonicity Of DC's Elseworlds

Started by tjcoady2 pages

How do the seemingly infinite worlds connected to the Bleed and the Wildstorm universe (as described in Planetary, the Authority, bunch of others- "Each rotation describes an entirely new universe. The number of rotations is equal to the number of atoms making up the earth" -Hark, from Planetary) fit into the rest of the DC multiverse? Are they just kind of being written out? Especially of the bleed does intersect with the main DCU. It's been mentioned a ton recently- Monarch hid out there, the Reach in Blue Beetle cloak their ships by going into the bleed...

I could be wrong...but the bleed is accessed thru the source wall or behind it, so all 52 universes are seperated by their own source wall, and beyond the source wall is where the bleed is

I think thats how they explained it in countdown, somthing about the source wall breaking and the bleed coming thru...would be bad

The Bleed is still out there,
With WS being connected to the mainstream DCU now -- it's become part of the greater 'verse.

Blue Beetle= best comic book DC is putting out. HANDS DOWN.

Then again, I say that about a lot of things I really like, but Blue Beetle is consistently really really good.

Wait, so about the Bleed thing- do the other Wildstorm universes in the greater multiverse still exist? Do some of the 52 universes therefore... have their own multiverses? Does that make sense?

Yeah, get that part. But are the hundreds of thousands universes of the Wildstorm multiverse still in existence now that there are only fifty two universes, which Wildstorm connects to?

There are more than just 52 universes, there are tons of places like the nanoverse, the 5th dimension (both of which were stated to be outside of the multiverse). I think the way it works is that there are 52 universes in the main multiverse, but there is more than one multiverse, and several other dimensions/planes outside of the multiverse

I agree about being consistantly really good. I've collected it all since the start. Best book is pushing it a little, though month after month it's been one of best reads since issue 1. GL and JSA are my favorite books tho.

I would say that the hundreds of thousands of universes of the wildstorm multiverse..can be connected to the prime 52 DC universes, so they still exist there is just an explanation of how they can be accessed by both the DC and Woldstorm universes
