Destruction of D.E.O. Headquarters

The same day that Obsidian North CEO Andrea Rojas announces that it will have a Worldwide Unity Festival for the launch of Obsidian Platinum, D.E.O. National City headquarters is destroyed.[7]

During the Worldwide Unity Festival, the Superfriends fight Jarhanpurians but the immortals disappear mid-battle.[8]

Kate Kane took a flight to National City in order to ask Kara if she could destroy the fragment of Kryptonite Kate was holding for her. Though Kate told the Bat Team that she was returning to Gotham City in the morning, the weather of National City caused the flight to delay until the night.[9] Months later, Julia Pennyworth called an attendant who told her that it was his second time conversing with her about what had happened to Kate.[10]

The Superfriends fought valiantly to keep a Phantom Zone phantom dubbed "Prime Phantom" from transforming the residents of the city because, if left unchecked, it would have contaminated the world.[11]

Behind the scenes[]

  • The addresses for victims of the Phantom attack give zip codes which relate to locations in and surrounding San Francisco, indicating National City is located in the location of real-world San Francisco.
  • California (Earth-Prime)

    Coincidentially, there exists a real-life National City, California. However, this National City is far more developed than what exists in reality; exterior shots typically use Los Angeles as the backdrop as was done on Earth-38.
