AMALGAM UNIVERSE CHRONOLOGY
|
This work would not
have been possible without the efforts of those who came before me, with me,
and after me; especially Michael Norwitz, Anwar Singh, Jess Nevin, Jon
Woodward, Robert Wicks, Steve Chung, Win Scott Eckert, Donovan Scott, Jon
Smallwood, the members of the UNTOLD TALES OF AMALGAM fan fiction writers
group, and the creative forces behind the Amalgam phenomenon at DC and
Marvel. Many dates were approximated from similar
events that occurred within the continuities of Marvel and/or DC. Some information was deduced or theorized
in order to fill in gaps in continuity, or explain seeming contradictions. |

OKAY, SO WHAT ELSE DO YOU HAVE HERE?
WHO'S WHO HANDBOOK TO THE ALMOST AMALGAM UNIVERSE: A guide to the characters in comics published by Marvel and/or DC Comics who MIGHT exist within Amalgam Continuity. This page is in the same format as Jon Woodward's WHO'S WHO HANDBOOK TO THE AMALGAM UNIVERSE and Mikel Midnight's WHO'S WHO HANDBOOK TO THE AMALGAM UNIVERSE ADDENDUM pages.
Crisis on Earth 612: This page is dedicated to the world of the Mighty Mystics and the Legion of the Strange, which has appeared in numerous Vertigo-related books by DC, and might be part of the Amalgam Universe.
All This And WORLD WAR 3!: This page is for the pseudo-amalgam Universe created when Marvel's Heroes Reborn universe combined with the WildStorm Universe, from the four #13 issues of the Heroes Reborn titles.
Everybody SMOOSH Now!: This page covers the Smoosh Universe seen in Image Comics' ALTERED IMAGE #2. An explanation of the story and a Who's Who Smoosh Appendix are included. Warning: Graphics Intensive!
The Secret Crisis of the Infinity Hour
[Crisis on
Infinite Earths, Zero Hour / Secret Wars, Infinity Gauntlet] -- Description taken from
various comics and trading cards, with occasional fan fiction elements added by
Crazy Ivan.
AMALGAM UNIVERSE
"CROSSOVER" FAN FICTION
|
There is an abundance of fan fiction available of the World Wide
Web, if one knows where to look. And if one is unsure of where that may be,
one need only examine the Links given at the bottom of this page. The UNTOLD
TALES OF AMALGAM fan fiction writers group is responsible for a large number
of these stories and sites. Though they certainly do not hold a monopoly on
stories set in the Amalgam Universe, their efforts at maintaining a cohesive
world shared by all is admirable, especially in light of their lack of an
Editor In Chief or other governing body. What follows is not an archive of my favorite stories. It is
a list of the various Crisis events that have occurred in fan fiction. |
The Big Picture: My original theory linking several cosmic (& some not-so-cosmic) events in the Amalgam Universe. This should not be confused with Mikel Midnight's History of Amalgam Comics, which can be found on his Golden Age Amalgam Heroes page (also available on his Golden Age Amalgam Villains page). |
Reign of the Super-Soldiers: [Reign of the Supermen / Captain America elements] - The crossover suggested in SUPER SOLDIER #1 is outlined by Crazy Ivan to bridge some of the gaps between the First and Second Wave comics. |
World Without Adult Heroes: [JLA: World Without Grown-Ups / World Without Heroes] - Round-robin style crossover by eight different authors; contains a #0 issue, 16 issues, and the follow-up, Young Justice League Avengers - Next Generation #1. |
Contest of the Gods: [War of the Gods / Contest of Champions] - Original crossover conceived and summarized by Crazy Ivan. |
The Hundred Years War: [various Marvel and DC influences] - This Multi-Author fan fiction crossover introduced the concept of Hyper-Cross-Time to the Amalgam Universe and confused many readers. |
Contest in the Sky: [Panic in the Sky / Contest of Champions II] - Original crossover conceived and summarized by Loborine. |
Eight Days of Judgment: [Day of Judgment / The Eighth Day] - Original crossover conceived by Loborine, written by various authors. |
