From my DeviantArt page:  https://www.deviantart.com/adrenalinerush1996/art/400-Details-of-the-Ultraverse-10-20-844277376 181. Challengers of the Unknown do not start out as a quartet in this version but instead a six-member team. 182. The Challengers are based in Oolong Island. 183. Rip Hunter and Amelia Gideon briefly joined the Challengers before rejoining the Legends of Tomorrow. 184. Though compared to the Fantastic Four, the Challengers pointed out at one point the differences between both teams is that they're the one without any superpowers. 185. The Challengers have teamed up with Batman during a Justice League mission in Dinosaur Island. 186. Given that the Challengers an obscure team, the Legion of Superheroes and Fantastic Four are the only ones who team up with them on notable occasions. 187. Before the Challengers were formed, the members worked at STAR Labs. 188. Hank Pym has helped with the Challengers occasionally. 189. It's worth knowing that the reason why th...

From my DeviantArt page:  https://www.deviantart.com/adrenalinerush1996/art/400-Details-of-the-Ultraverse-9-20-844277296 161. All-Star Squadron originated as the incubator team for the Justice Society called the Young All-Stars before it became its own team. 162. Joan Dale-Trevor (Miss America) is the paternal aunt of Steve Trevor. 163. Shiera started her superheroing career in the Squadron as Hawkgirl before joining the Justice Society as Hawkwoman, whereas Katar Hol (Golden Eagle) is Shayera's father in this continuity than husband. This is because Shayera's love interest is instead John Stewart in this continuity. 164. Neptune Perkins is indeed the father of his and his wife Miya (Tsunami)'s daughter Deborah (Deep Blue) and thus Deep Blue is not the paternal half-sister of Arthur Curry (Aquaman) but his half-cousin as Neptune is his father's maternal half-brother in this continuity. 165. Arnold Munro is the maternal uncle of Lana Lang (Superwoman). 166. Susan Kent (B...

From my DeviantArt page:  https://www.deviantart.com/adrenalinerush1996/art/400-Details-of-the-Ultraverse-8-20-844177171 141. Guardians of the Galaxy originated as a team of space pirates working with the Starjammers before they ultimately spun off. 142. Peter's outfit when being Star-Lord is based on his original costume than his current MCU-influenced costume, though his father is still Ego the Living Planet like his MCU counterpart. 143. Drax and Arthur Douglas are not the same person in this continuity. 144. Mantis is a composite character of her comic book and MCU counterparts, especially with her personality being closer to the former. 145. Gamora only joined the team to take down her adoptive father Thanos for what he did to her homeworld before finally realising that she bonded with her teammates more than Thanos ever did to her, thus opted to stay in the team. 146. J'Son of Spartax is Drax's father in this continuity instead of Peter's father like in the comics...

From my DeviantArt page:  https://www.deviantart.com/adrenalinerush1996/art/400-Details-of-the-Ultraverse-7-20-844177100 121. Suicide Squad was originally called Task Force X but founding member Amanda Waller took over as leader, she renamed the team to its current name, much to the dismay of her predecessor Rick Flag, whose son (also called Rick) serves as Waller's second-in-command. 122. Tatsu (Katana) and Roy (Arsenal) served as the token good teammates of the team following its renaming. Both left when they joined the Outsiders and their positions were ultimately taken over by Eve Eden (Nightshade) and John Blake (Nightwing). 123. Harley is more closer to her DCAU counterpart than her recent post-Flashpoint and DCEU counterparts in addition to that her costume after joining the team is her classic jester costume along with the domino mask though incorporating elements of her recent costumes such as tying her hair in pigtails and dying tips of her hair pink and blue and wearing ...

From my DeviantArt page:  https://www.deviantart.com/adrenalinerush1996/art/400-Details-of-the-Ultraverse-6-20-844177001 101. Fantastic Four's origins are similar to the 2005 film adaptation. 102. Reed is around the same age as Sue and has prematurely grey hair (thus explaining why his dark hair is greying in his thirties). 103. The Maker isn't an alternate version of Reed in this continuity but instead his cousin Marcus Richards (his father is Reed's uncle Ted), while Kang is his younger brother Nathaniel Jr. 104. Sue and Johnny's father Franklin is alive and well in this continuity. 105. Johnny once had feelings for former teammate Crystal but the Inhuman decided to marry Magneto's son Pietro (Quicksilver) instead. Fortunately, Johnny would ultimately marry Lyja years later. 106.

From my DeviantArt page:  https://www.deviantart.com/adrenalinerush1996/art/400-Details-of-the-Ultraverse-5-20-844176881 81. Unlike in most depictions, the Legion of Superheroes are not from the future, but from the present day, so they're a composite team of their main comic book counterpart (pre-Zero Hour/post-Infinite Crisis, SW6, post-Zero Hour and Threeboot) and their modern day incarnation LEGION. 82. The team didn't start out as a trio in this version but seven. 83. Clark started his superheroic career in this team as Superboy, joining months after the team formed, while his close friend Lana Lang joined the team as Insect Queen before she joined the Justice League years later as Superwoman. 84. Unlike his grandfather Vril Dox, forever known as Brainiac and was responsible for shrinking Argo City as well as destroying Krypton, Querl is more heroic than him, like his father and sister Indigo (Brainiac 8). 85. Instead of being Barry's granddaughter, Jenni Ognats (XS) i...

Founding members of the Avengers are Steve Rogers (Captain America), Tony Stark (Iron Man), Thor Odinson (Thor), Natasha Romanova (Black Widow), Monica Rambeau (Photon), Bruce Banner (Hulk), Hank Pym (Ant-Man) and Janet van Dyne (Wasp). 62. The Avengers got their name after Captain America was once dubbed as an "heroic avenger" in the Daily Bugle during WWII. 63. Steve once teamed up with a certain Lieutenant Logan and Diana Prince during World War II before they ultimately became Wolverine and Wonder Woman respectively. 64. Tony knew Pepper and Jim since they were teenagers (a nod to Armoured Adventures). 65. Thor Odinson and Donald Blake are separate characters in this continuity. 66. Natasha was born in New York to Soviet Russian parents who defected from the KGB to join SHIELD and given her last name, is a descendant of the Romanov dynasty. Oddly en...

400 Details of the Ultraverse (3/20)

From my DeviantArt page:  https://www.deviantart.com/adrenalinerush1996/art/400-Details-of-the-Ultraverse-3-20-844060816 41. Founding members of the Justice League are Clark Kent / Kal-El (Superman), Bruce Wayne (Batman), Diana of Themyscria / Diana Prince (Wonder Woman), Barry Allen (Flash), Arthur Curry (Aquaman), J'onn J'onzz (Martian Manhunter), Shayera Hol (Hawkwoman), Hal Jordan (Green Lantern) and Mari Jiwe McCabe (Vixen). 42. The Justice League were influenced by their direct predecessors the Justice Society. 43. Clark was once considered to be a running mate for his fellow friend Pete Ross on his presidential campaign, but he declined the offer, as he wasn't a natural born citizen. So, Prez Rickard became his running mate, thus this led to Ross winning the election, beating rival Lex Luthor. 44. Bruce considered retiring with the intention of taking over Checkmate, following the unfortunate events that had affected his life, most notably the death of his ex sweethe...

The X-Men are based in New York, like in the comics and every adaptation, of course. 22. The founding line-up assembled by Charles Xavier (Professor X) and Moira MacTaggert are Scott Summers (Cyclops), Robert "Bobby" Drake (Iceman), Warren Worthington III (Angel), Henry "Hank" McCoy (Beast), Jean Grey (Marvel Girl), Ororo Munroe (Windrider), Lorna Dane (Polaris) and Alison Blaire (Dazzler). 23. Bobby is bisexual in this continuity as I didn't like how Bendis decided to retcon his romantic past during his X-Men run by revealing that he was a closested gay man the entire time during his romances with Lorna, Cloud, Opal and Kate. 24. Wolverine's origins are similar to the opening prologue of X-Men Origins: Wolverine (one of the few good things from that godawful film) and that his real name is still James Logan Howlett but while Victor Cr...

Garfield never goes by the name Beast Boy at all in this continuity and formed the Titans before he left to join the Doom Patrol instead of doing the opposite. 4. Donna's origins are a mix of "Who is Donna Troy?" and "Who is Troia?" with the added revelation on that Dorothy Hinckley is actually Hippolyta. 5. Ben Tennyson and his cousin Gwen would occasionally team up with the Titans from time to time. Notable allies also in...
