History
Weather Witch attacks the city.
During Anti-Monitor Crisis, after Oliver Queen died while battling the Anti-Monitor and reformed the universe, this city was formed on Earth-Prime, which contained most elements of National City of Earth-38;[1] however, there are various differences between the two cities. One difference is where the covert organization Leviathan had its meetings.[5]
Prior to 2020, Supergirl, as a member of The Trinity, becomes a famous hero in National City. [1] She does advertisements with Lex Luthor to promote the D.E.O.[2]
The Flash makes an appearance in National City and signs autographs with Supergirl to the delight of the citizens, after they deal with Weather Witch.[1]
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.[5]
During the Worldwide Unity Festival, the Superfriends fight Jarhanpurians but the immortals disappear mid-battle.[6]
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.[7] 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.[8]
The Superfriends fought valiantly to keep a Phantom Zone phantom dubbed "Prime Phantom" from transforming the residents of the city because, if felt unchecked, it would have contaminated the world.[9]
