Probably a few I missed there. Let me know!
Not sure if you’re planning to include T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents in the reading order (not originally published by DC, but DC is doing the Archives), but if you are there’s a Twomorrows companion for that series as well.

yeah I saw that. I don’t know much about THUNDER, but it isn’t referenced at all in modern continuity is it? I don’t feel much need to put it or Elfquest in there.

It’s not referenced in modern continuity, although there’s always the possibility that they’ll decide to integrate it into the DC universe with the next Crisis or something. Or they might even just show one or two panels from that universe (or even from Elfquest) if they feel like doing a montage of different universes at some point. You never know with DC!

haha yeah. well, for now I think I’ll leave it be, but we’ll keep an eye out for any of that happening ;)
