Universe Section

I found the Universe section interesting since it fails to note that the New Teen Titans :: The Terror of Trigon^[1] (1984-1985) is included in the DCUO which pre-dates Crisis on Infinite Earths^[2] (1985-1986) in which Barry Allen (the Flash)^[3] dies. The "Barry Allen" in the game is the one that returned in Flash :: Rebirth^[4] (2009). Part of this is due to the creative teams from DC Comics that were working on DCUO (the game)^[5] at the time. This article relates "...the game's story co-writer Marv Wolfman and Tony Bedard..."; however, I believe that was only in the initial release of the game and other individuals from DC Comics have taken control of which content is now added into the DCUO Universe. It appears initially that the game was to include classic DC Comics from the past (note that "New Teen Titans :: The Terror of Trigon was written by Marv Wolfman in 1985-1986) and now there is some attempt to solely focus on new DC Comics content (as of Jan 2014, the most recent DLC (War of Light Part 1^[6]) is focused on the Red Lantern Corps^[7] which didn't appear until 2008), but the game can not be adapted (due to time and monetary constraints) to keep up with a rapidly changing and retconned DC Universe of the comics.
