"Crisis on Infinite Earths, Part 1" is the first chapter of the comic book series Crisis on Infinite Earths Giant. It was released digitally on December 15, 2019.
Trivia[]
- In addition to two all-new stories tied into the crossover event, this issue features reprints from the original Crisis on Infinite Earths comic book event. The stories included are:
- Crisis on Infinite Earths Pt. 1 (new)
- The Council Pt.1 (new)
- Crisis on Infinite Earths #1: The Summoning!
- Crisis on Infinite Earths #7: Beyond the Silent Night
- This comic's main story heavily featured characters who could not be featured in the television episodes of the crossover event: Felicity Smoak, Ray Terrill/The Ray, Nyssa al Ghul, and Wally West/Kid Flash.
- Wally West is shot and killed by an anti-matter blast from Outkast in this issue.
- This is the first time a version of Wonder Woman and Green Lantern appeared in the Arrowverse.
- However, Wonder Woman had been confirmed to exist on Earth-1 prior to this in "The Rabbit Hole".
- Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) also had been implied to exist on Earth-1 through both the appearance of Jordan in "Green Arrow" and the mention of a missing test pilot who worked for Ferris Air in "Rogue Air".
- Earth-X, Earth-D, Earth-F, Earth-N52 and Earth-76 made an appearance.
- Despite not being named on screen (or only being mentioned by Bethany Snow), the New 52 Justice League, including Flash, Cyborg and Aquaman, make an appearance on TV (on the billboards at Heroes Square; Metropolis (Earth-N52).)
- The Justice Alliance from Earth-D make an appearance.
- This story takes place during "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Two".
Goofs[]
- Dollman is shown to be alive, despite having been killed by Overgirl in "Episode Two".
- Felicity states that Oliver was the one to come up with "The Ray" as Ray Terrill's codename. However, Ray introduced himself with this codename in "Crisis on Earth-X, Part 4".
- The destruction of the Rübeland Railway on Earth-X while the Freedom Fighters fight the Nazis attempting to steal weapons on the train either comes after The Ray flies over his city in "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part One", or conflicts with it: either the Ray escaped the antimatter wave consuming the city below and headed from the USA to Germany and protect the train, or he was killed in both scenarios by the antimatter wave.
