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

[Rosco]

Would you consider the following Animated titles to multiverse as well...

We're going to be making a separate animated Multiverse list, although some of the animated films do tie-into live-action, so there may be a little bit of a mix.

For example, they show Adam West's animated version of Batman from Return of the Caped Crusader in Teen Titans vs. Teen Titans Go!
This could mean that Teen Titans Go! is in the same multiverse as Batman '66.
Oddly enough, PowerPuff Girls are also in the Teen Titans Go! universe.
So Green Hornet and Powerpuff Girls share a multiverse, technically.

Stuff like this we need to figure out how to workaround but we're getting there.

Would you consider watchmen the Motion Comic, watchmen under the hood and tales of the black freighter to the timeline if so where would they fall also for the live Action Films if there is more than one cut of the films should I watch all the cut of the different movies or what if you could let me know that would be greatly appreciated thanks

 

[Adam Jensen]

And what about the novels of smallville and graphic Novels of the arrowverse and it's novels and how 1. Batman Nightwalker, 2. wonder Woman warbringer, 3. Superman Dawnbreaker, 4. Catwoman Soulstealer and 5. Black canary Breaking Silence if you could let me know on that as well that would be greatly appreciated as well thanks

 

[Adam Jensen]

Would you consider adding the following webseries to the timeline and if so where would they fall in the timeline 1. Chasing lightning, 2. John con noir, 3. Year one, 4. DC'S Legends of Tomorrow Their Time is Now, 5. Constantine Th legend Continues, 6. Crisis aftermath and 7. Arrow hitting the bullseye

Great question! We actually don't include motion comics in the timeline any longer and removed the ones we did have. Tales of the Black Freighter is a fictional comic book within the fictional world of Watchmen. It's definitely worth the watch and we may actually add it to the list.
We likely will be adding Under the Hood as it an in-universe documentary.

As far as different cuts of the movie, I would always watch the director's cut or extended cut.
The one exception to this would be Superman II as Superman 3 & 4 are sequels to the theatrical cut and not the Richard Donner cut.

And what about the novels of smallville and graphic Novels of the arrowverse and it's novels and how 1. Batman Nightwalker, 2. wonder Woman warbringer, 3. Superman Dawnbreaker, 4. Catwoman Soulstealer and 5. Black canary Breaking Silence if you could let me know on that as well that would be greatly appreciated as well thanks

We didn't include the novels or tie-in comics as this is a watch order, but I recommend THIS LIST as it does have the novels, games, tie-ins, comics, etc.

Would you consider adding the following webseries to the timeline and if so where would they fall in the timeline 1. Chasing lightning, 2. John con noir, 3. Year one, 4. DC'S Legends of Tomorrow Their Time is Now, 5. Constantine Th legend Continues, 6. Crisis aftermath and 7. Arrow hitting the bullseye

Anything involving the actors speaking as themselves shouldn't be included as canon, however, I haven't seen half of these so I'll definitely get back to you on that.

Thank you for the questions!

We're going to be adding Preacher soon. As for the others, we have to get around to figuring out their chronological dates and then they'll be added. If you're in a big rush, I recommend just going by release-date for now until we get them added.
As for the Marvel question, one multiverse at a time.

We actually have a DC Animated Universe list completed, but we're just confirming dates on a lot of it right now. Batman: The animated series is actually the hardest to place. Hopefully, in the very near future, we'll get it posted.
We're also still trying to get this current DC Univere completed lol

The only reason the Green Hornet TV show is on this list is that it takes place on Earth-66, along with Batman. Other than that, Green Hornet media isn't related to the DC Universe (although we can assume these other Green Hornets DO exist on other earths).
