Arrowverse General Arrowverse 5.0 + The Live-Action DC Multiverse Recommended Viewing Order / Watch Order

[Rosco]

We've added Man of Steel - Documentary - Planet Krypton to Year: Two as it's an in-universe documentary.

 

[Rosco]

[Rosco]

Although it doesn't change the viewing order, we've moved Titans - S02E02-S02E13 to the end of Year: Seven, rather than having it take place at the beginning of Year: Eight. This is because those episodes take place from April to July of 2019.

[Rosco]

hi the stargirl order is wrong. it's confirmed that the show takes place in the post-crisis world

Stargirl is kinda hard to place as it takes place between October - December of 2019.
We'll be looking into this though. Thank you!

 

[Adam Jensen]

Shouldn't the series krypton be moved to a different year instead of year Six 2017+2018 as it takes place roughly 200 Years before Superman was born just curious on that

We did originally have Krypton at the very beginning of the playlist as it takes place sometime in the last quarter of the 1700s, but because Adam Strange comes from present-day Earth (2018) and even visits the present in S01E08 we decided to place the events over the course of that year rather than 1775.
You can watch it before anything else in the multiverse if you like, though, and the story will still make sense.

 

[Adam Jensen]

ok if i did place krypton before the multiverse just curious where would be best to place it

I do consider the following to be a part of the multiverse:
Superboy
Swamp Thing: The Series
Both versions of Human Target
iZombie
Preacher
Aquaman (Pilot)
The Adventures of Superboy
We're actually going to be adding Preacher to the timeline very soon.

I wouldn't consider:
The Boys as it's no longer associated with DC (although a great show).
It's a Bird...It's a Plane...It's Superman as it's more of a stage performance.
Legends of the Superheroes is also more like a special than a story.
Return to the Batcave: The Misadventures of Adam and Burt has the actors speaking out of character and is more real-world than the fictional DC multiverse we'd expect to see.

The Adventures of Superpup, Who's Afraid of Diana Prince?, Global Frequency & Justice League of America I don't think can be found in their entirety? If they were released, we'd likely place them in the timeline.

Scalped, I'm not sure of.
