The classic Earth-Two heroes of the DC Golden Age, including the Justice Society of America, hailed from what was famously known as the home of the multiverse.
After Crisis on Infinite Earths happened, though, Earth-Two was merged with other planets into one and lost its distinct identity.
Following a second reboot with Flashpoint, a new iteration of Earth-Two featured a different history revolving around an Eight Wonders of the World superhero team led by Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman.
Despite great victories against Apokolips forces at an equally grave cost, another group of superheroes appears to pick up where their predecessors left off.
This group consists of the Flash, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, and Atom in a strange foreign world beset by dangerous new villains.
To follow this thrilling story from its inception during New 52 with all its twists and turns, we put together this list of dc comics earth 2 reading orders for you to enjoy.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to revisit an unforgettable era – jump right in!
Earth 2 DC Comics Reading Order
Earth-2 New 52 Reading Order isn’t something you can just skim through. Each issue is rich with details and a story, so if you want to read this in the correct order, you’ll need to follow along.
Start with Batman/Superman: Earth 2, which features our heroes meeting their Earth-2 counterparts and provides an excellent foundation for what comes next.
After that is The World’s Finest series, which doesn’t take place on Earth 2, these issues are still needed as they focus on Power Girl and Huntress, two heroes from the Earth-2 dimension, and they were stranded within our world.
Later down the road, Constantine finds himself intertwined with the World’s End storyline, eventually leading up to Convergence, as this was ultimately an Earth-2 event offering a continuation of what came before it and serves as a bridge between both Earth-2: World’s End and Society.
All these elements will help build an immersive reading experience from start to finish!
