The
original Crisis took all the remaining Earths and merged them
together again. But there were glitches... paradoxes... and the
universe demanded that it's flaws be fixed. With each strike he's
(Superboy Prime) sorting his way through the conflicting permutations...
resolving all the possible realities. This is... miraculous."
"I don't know how, but he's altering reality out there (on
Earth). Creating conflicting truths. People are changing without
explanation. New events are superseding what had always been.
Each strike he takes is rupturing the continuity of life without
reason or purpose. In this place we can alter our own reality,
but now we're changing theirs, too."
-Alexander Luthor, Infinite Crisis Secret Files & Origins
Continuity - this
is the fun part. The revamp is still in progress and probably
will continue to be as long as DC publishes titles. In this sections'
previous incarnations, only Batman and related titles were involved.
Here, other characters and major DC events are included. There's
some Superman, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, JLA, Green Arrow,
etc. Also, in order to simplify things a bit more, continuity
has been broken into chunks. Items which may not specifically
fall in a certain place will simply be place in a certain time
period.
