Talk:Chronology in the DC animated universe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is garbage. I actually compiled a definitive timeline for the whole of the DCAU, done both chronologically with concurrently running shows, and in terms of the timeline of the series itself. Mine's no more official than his, but it's certainly better. This sounds like some moron working marketting trying to sell DVDs.
Jeez.
- Do tell. Edit the page yourself with your own changes, or post a link to your definitive timeline, so we can judge for ourselves. Maybe it is better as you say, but we won't know that until we see it. WordsSayNothing 21:50, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
If someone wants to make a DCAU timeline, he just has to follow Bruce Wayne's age. In the flashback in the episode "Zatanna" he is about 17. In "Night of the Ninja" he is maybe 18. Then, there are the flashbacks in "Mask of the Phantasm", there Bruce is about 22. Next, there are these in "Robin's Reckoning", some time has past, and Bruce is maybe 24 and Dick is 12. In the normal time in BTAS, Dick is about 17-18, so Bruce must 29-30. Two Christases hava past one in "Christams with the Joker" and one in "A bullet for Bullock". This makes 2 years, so Bats must be 31-32. Count the 2 or 3 years from the time between BTAS and TNBA, and Bruce is now 34-35. It's a big mistake, that "Holiday Knights" is the first episode, it must be the last from the 1997 episodes - this is another Christmas and a New Year, which makes Bruce 35 or 36. At the and of TNBA he is mostly 36 or 37. Here comes a little Superman period - after the events of "Legacy", some time have past, and it's 1 or 2 years, so Bruce is about 37-38 in the beginning of the JL series. In the second season he is already 38-39 and in "Comfort and Joy" he is 39-40 for sure. In 3 season of JLU he makes another 1 or 2 years and he is about 41-42. And now, it comes the time of Batman Beyond. 30 years have past, but after BTAS or JLU? I think the answer is from BTAS, because, if it's so, Bruce is about the 60s, but if it's from JLU, Bruce is about 70s and the difference is very big and he even had to be a little bit balder, don't you think. But as we can see, he is in a shape, that he still can beat bad guys, so I think these 30 years are counted from the first episode of BTAS - 30+30=60. And here come the other 20 years and Bruce is an 80 years old man. Three seasons BB, and there they are his 81-82 years. And the 15 years in "Epilogue", counting the from the beginnig of "Rebirth", but when Bruce is 80, it means that he is about 95. And so, if you have all these notes, that I gave, you can maka a good DCAU timeline. Batman TAS
[edit] Reput spaces
The reason why I've initially put spaces between certain lines is because some of the events listed in this article take place approximately at the same time. For instance (during the New Super Heroes Period) Superman TAS [Season 1 and a great part of Season 2] and Static Shock [Season 1 and a great part of Season 2] take place at the same time but in different places ("meanwhile young Virgil Hawkins...") but the events of World's Finest take place some time later... --Master Yugin 19:04, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
