With the cliffhanger 2019 finale of part three of the Arrowverse’s latest event Crisis on Infinite Earths leaving fans on the edge of their seats waiting to see what happens next, the question of the future of the Arrowverse is naturally going to come up. Many surprise universes were showed during the event, hinting at iconic shows and events having a place in the Arrowverse.
Yet there are still many universes that have not made an appearance yet. When the Arrowverse changes in the final two episodes of Crisis, here are the ten universes that should make an appearance in the Arrowverse next.
10 Earth 5
One of the things that have made fans love Crisis so far in terms of its delivery has been the unexpected cameos or appearances of other DC projects. One Earth that could showcase a property that hasn’t been shown off in the Arrowverse yet is Earth 5 home of Billy Bastion and the Marvel Family.
Located in a portion of the multiverse known as The Brightlands, this universe is home to Captain Marvel, Mary Marvel, and Captain Marvel Jr., who have endless quests to fight their mortal enemy Doctor Sivana and the Monster Society of Evil. With these characters having made an appearance in the Shazam movie, a brief appearance wouldn’t be too far out there.
9 Earth 43
An interesting concept that hasn’t yet been explored yet in the Arrowverse has been the concept of supernatural creatures like vampires existing. With Batwoman being introduced and having a long history in comics with a vampire villain, one interesting thing that could be explored would be the world of Earth 43.
On this Earth, Batman became a vampire in order to defeat Dracula, but eventually succumbed to the curse and spread the disease to other heroes, creating the Blood League. Using his superpowered vampire league, they attacked various worlds for sustenance and became monsters themselves, which would be interesting to see in the Arrowverse.
8 Limbo
One unusual place in the multiverse that could be interpreted in a unique way for the Arrowverse is the universe known as Limbo. Also known as Comic Book Limbo, this world is unique in that it houses long forgotten or unused comic book characters, once including Animal Man and many more. In the comics, Superman and his allies entered this world during Final Crisis.
With the remaining Paragons the only survivors at the moment, Crisis could reveal this Limbo place where some heroes are being kept or cataloged in a way that could give the other heroes additional power for their fight against the Anti-Monitor.
7 Earth-Six
Exploring the multiverse in the aftermath of Crisis, if there is a multiverse left to explore, could lead to some interesting new encounters for the heroes fans have come to know and love. Things have promised to be different in the aftermath of Crisis, and so worlds like Earth-Six would make perfect sense to explore in the future.
On this Earth, America lost the Revolutionary War, and technology advanced at a much faster rate. Soon Lady Quark and Lord Volt ruled the planet, but when Crisis hit all except for Lady Quark were erased from existence. Seeing the aftermath of Crisis on a world like this would make sense.
6 Earth 33
With so many superpowered adventures taking place in the Arrowverse, one universe that may be interesting to put some of our superpowered heroes in would be Earth 33, otherwise known as the “real world.” In this reality, the world of superheroes, aliens and magic are all fictional and treated as comic book fantasy.
This world became the place where the chronicles of the multiverse were kept and used in comic book form. It would be really interesting to see The Flash or Supergirl faced with a reality without heroes, and how the world was affected by the lack of superpowers.
5 Earth Fourteen
One world that would be interesting to explore in a post-Crisis multiverse would be Earth-Fourteen, the homeworld of Jack Kirby’s original New Gods run of comics. This is a world belonging to the stories of Apokolips and New Genesis, of Darkseid and Highfather, and of course the New Gods.
Ironically enough Darkseid did have a role to play in the fight against the Anti-Monitor in the original Crisis, and introducing the role of the New Gods into the Arrowverse would be great with the Crisis event ending in just a few weeks, leaving the Arrowverse in need of a new overall threat to face.
4 Earth-11
One of the things that the Arrowverse has done a great job of is creating an equal amount of powerful male and female characters to follow. From Supergirl and The Flash to Cisco Ramon and Felicity Smoak, there have been several powerful characters of both genders in the Arrowverse. Yet it is no secret that for years superheroes have been a male-dominated field for too long.
Thanks to the emergence of amazing female heroes like Supergirl and Batwoman, the time is perfect to introduce the New 52 world of Earth-11, a world of gender-reversed heroes including Superwoman and Wonder Man.
3 Earth-18
One fan-favorite character in the Arrowverse has been Jonah Hex in DC’s Legends of Tomorrow. One much-loved aspect of his character has been his place in time as a member of the Wild West, a time of lawlessness and cowboys roaming the lands. One universe in the multiverse happens to encompass this part of Jonah Hex’s history, and that is Earth-18.
On this Earth, several well-known heroes have become heroes of the Wild West, known as the Justice Riders. From Diana Prince and J’onn J’onzz to Kid Kon-El and Wallace West, these heroes embody the rough and tumble life of the Wild West.
2 Earth -52
One of the darker aspects of the multiverse that still needs to be explored in the Arrowverse has to be the Dark Multiverse. With the Anti-Monitor promising to build an Anti-Monitor universe in the Crisis event, the concept of a Dark Multiverse is not out of the realm of possibility, and one universe that makes sense for the Arrowverse is Earth -52.
In this universe, Batman went mad from losing his allies and kidnapped the Flash, forcibly merging himself with the speedster to become Red Death, using his new super speed to wipe out his entire rogue’s gallery. This would work well on The Flash especially.
1 Earth-Three
The one universe that deserves to be explored fully has to be Earth-Three. Home of the Justice League’s primary opposites, the Crime Syndicate of America, the world is a flip on what the heroes of the DC Universe know. Led by Ultraman and Superwoman, as well as Nite Owl and many more, these villains have caused quite a lot of trouble.
Getting to see villainous doubles of the heroes or evil villains who mimic the Arrowverse hero’s powers would be interesting to see play out in a Post-Crisis multiverse, and the Crime Syndicate would be a true challenge.
