  1. Tenzel Kim says:

    Regarding this entry:
    –Batman time-travels to 1776 (fb from Detective Comics 2022 Annual)

    This flashback shows Batman as Mordecai and would fit between pages of Batman: The Return of Bruce Wayne #2.

    Haven’t fully worked out my order for this period yet, so don’t have a lot of comments right now. I would argue that Nightwing #98 goes before Dark Crisis though due to Beast Boy not having his eye patch.

    I would probably put a break in between Nightwing #98 and 99 giving time for the police to get the corroborate the Maroni testimony with the Blockbuster files and have Dark Crisis slow them slightly down.

    • Hi Tenzel! Nice to hear from you, and I hope you’ve been well. DCU Guide is looking good as always! I haven’t yet settled on a final order yet either. With Johns, things will likely get messier. But I’m going tackle in a few months.

      I think you are right that Ram V was trying to connect to Return of Bruce Wayne #2, except his story takes place in 1776 and Return of Bruce Wayne #2 takes place in 1640. Nevertheless, his intention is clearly to connect it to Morrison’s work. In order to make it work, we must likely add a stop in Bruce’s Omega Sanction in between 1718 and 1880. Since Bruce seems to remember his Mordecai persona for all his jumps after 1640 (at least at the onset), this fits. I’m going to connect this time jump—it’ll basically be Return of Bruce Wayne #3.5.

      I’ll bite on the Nightwing placements. Thanks for the guidance! Talk to you soon.

  2. Martin says:

    Hi, Collin. As per Superman: Lost #10, that series appears to have established itself as canon, so you might want to place Batman’s appearances somewhere.

    • Hey Martin, I take it you haven’t been following the commentary about Superman: Lost that’s been going on on here (i.e. in the Updates page comments) since the weekend. After having now read Superman: Lost multiple times (I don’t even want to tell you how many times), it’s become apparent to me that the story simply doesn’t fit anywhere, and it likely should be non-canon. Almost all of Reddit seems to agree as well. I have a note about Superman: Lost just prior to Dark Crisis. There are a lot of items within its narrative that are contradictory to our timeline, and that’s before even getting into the story’s complicated ending. And by saying “complicated,” I’m being nice. The ending doesn’t make any sense to me. If anyone—even one person—can explain it to me, I’d be forever grateful.
