During the publishing history of DC Comics, one thing, the company has become famous for: Crisis. Far from the crisis "on the original Infinite Earth" back in 1986 and the current "final crisis" that is wreaking havoc on continuity, once again, the crises have been signs of DC Comics in the mix plus 20. And even though its publication has more than 20 years in the last 20 years about the impact on societyHistory.

Before the first "crisis", DC Comics, had split over the years, in his world of multiple universes. Be introduced in two characters from different eras, then realize that do not fit into current continuity. It 'basically a lot of stories running Elseworlds style has led to many duplicates. Then they started to argue that they were all in alternative universes. The problem is that things are so complicated that nobody knew what was up or down. AndForget the new units to be used, because if someone new who was totally confused read three stories of Superman appeared in different worlds with different characteristics, play a supporting role, and thus the mass confusion.

So to fix this error, a DC Comics in all worlds in a universe unique mesh, which eliminates a number of unnecessary signs and schedules, and the infusion of the most popularContinuity current universe. But rather than quietly to be an event that has essentially decided that the first major blockbuster, the universe wide crossover, which would pave the way for many others in Washington DC and other businesses will open just ended. In "Crisis on Infinite Earths" was a lot of heroes, the story has changed, and the DC universe began cooler.

Gradually, however, over time the small elements, characters and stories of pre-crisis continuityhave begun to appear here and there. After all, until now, has led to the continuity of pre-crisis, which has been re-wound. Again, there were many copies, but went by different names. Some, like Power Girl (Supergirl Earth 2) could not remember who they were and where they come from, when his world and his past was erased, but survived and new in more than a continuum. Thus, the DC Comics has begun to prepare a plan to correct their mistakes, ifagain.

This led us to Identity Crisis, Infinite Crisis, lead, and, finally, well, final crisis. Through these events in recent years, many revelations have met many of DC Comics. It introduced new characters, traditional characters, and many signs to show their true face and its true character.

When finished, it is not known if the DC Universe? This really is the final crisis? It starts with the beginning and the endwith the end of time, so I thought. DC Comics and the structure of this for a while '. But one must ask if the changes are made in this crisis, one day, have not yet been corrected by another.
