Injustice: Gods Among Us

The Injustice series is set in a reality entirely separate from the rest of the DC Universe. Though it reflects some status quos and character progressions from the pre-New 52 DC Universe, it also heavily deviates from that universe.

The main narrative in Injustice comes from a series of comics preceding the Injustice: Gods Among Us video game. These comics explain the course of world events that go into creating the game’s main premise and significantly expand upon the relationships and storylines seen in the game. Then, the Injustice: Ground Zero series expands on the game even further by depicting the game’s events from a different point of view.

Other Appearances

Characters from the Injustice reality make a brief appearance in the first issue of the Convergence (Reading Order) event. This marks the first time characters from this series have appeared in the mainstream DC Universe. However, their appearance does nothing to advance the Injustice storyline and the events of Convergence are relatively ignored by most comics within the mainstream DC Universe.

Injustice 2

The Injustice 2 narrative picks up immediately after the conclusion of the Injustice: Gods Among Us narrative. There are no continuity breaks between these eras.

The structure of the main narrative surrounding this game and comic series is very similar to the structure of the narrative surrounding the previous game and comic series. The Injustice 2 comic precedes the Injustice 2 game by explaining the course of world events that go into creating the game's main premise and significantly expanding upon the relationship and storylines seen in the game. In addition, the Injustice 2 comic helps bridge the gap between the Injustice: Gods Among Us game and the Injustice 2 game.

As of now, the narrative from this universe ends with the Injustice 2 game. However, it is always possible that more comics or games will be created in the future.

Other Appearances

The Injustice vs. The Masters of the Universe comic series takes place after an alternative ending from the Injustice 2 game. As such, it is directly related to this series but may not be quite as well structured within its continuity as other comics.
