    No prob. At least you're trying. Most people just look at this thread and don't help out.


    Come on people. Submit some DC sites.

    Thanks. The DC one isn't getting as much attention as the Marvel one (mainly because I like Marvel better) but I still find it useful too.

    Does anybody have any sites that just have good profiles of DC characters? Like the marvelbook.topcities.com, but for DC? I'm dying trying to find information on just what the hell Ares is really capable of here...

    http://dcu.smartmemes.com/

    Found that site while I was looking around for stuff on the DC version of the war between the Titans and the Olympians, of all things. :confused: Anyway, it's pretty much a perfect counterpart to the unofficial Marvel chronology site (linked to, I believe, in DBM's Marvel Info Websites thread) and has good entries. I'm not a huge DC buff, so I don't know if it's totally accurate, but what I saw seemed to correspond to a lot of the post-Crisis history bits I do know (stuff like the dates of the Amazons' creation, since I just read Perez's Wonder Woman post-Crisis relaunch). Also, it's got a wicked-cool section on DC characters' birthdays that actually differentiates between characters whose dates of birth are set in stone (Alan Scott, Dr. Occult, most of the rest of the JSA) and characters who are presently on a "sliding" timeline (Nightwing, Superman, Batman, most of the later Silver Age DC characters). It's great. :up:

    Great site, Corp. I'm glad you found it. I'll add it in as soon as I get a chance.

    Cool. Also, you may want to put up a link directly to the official DC forums. Click on any character's board and you're pretty likely to find someone who's asking questions similar to the ones you have, and multiple posts that'll usually help confirm certain details.

    Doesn't exist. Marvel fans are spoiled compared to DC fans for online resources.

    The two best are probably

    http://www.dcuguide.com/
    http://www.mykey3000.com/cosmicteams/

    But even those aren't nearly as good as the Marvel Directory. Your best bet for DC characters is to look for an individual site about the character.

    Tom Morrow's Who's Who has a good number of characters, too. :up:

    The problem with DC sites is that there's no single site to find all your characters. Marvel's got http://marvelbook.topcities.com even though they're under renovation at the moment. You can find practically anyone there. For DC, a combination of the two sites DBM posted and the one I posted has worked nicely for me.

    This is a pretty good one that list lots and lots of characters. It's got that role-playing-type set-up so the history for the characters is pretty sparse but it does give information about their abilities and some background.

    Don't think it's been mentioned yet, but Titanstower.com is a decent site.
