Arrowverse / DC-CW Timeline (v 3.0)

[selfishmisery]

The order of the episodes are wrong on the timeline. You have:

The Flash 1x03, "Things You Can't Outrun"
The Flash 1x04, "Going Rogue" [Felicity in Central City]
Arrow 3x03, "Corto Maltese" [Felicity leaves for Central City]
The Flash 1x05, "Plastique"
Arrow 3x04, "The Magician" [Felicity returns from Central City]

When really, it's:
The Flash 1x03, "Things You Can't Outrun"
Arrow 3x03, "Corto Maltese" [Felicity leaves for Central City]
The Flash 1x04, "Going Rogue" [Felicity in Central City]
Arrow 3x04, "The Magician" [Felicity returns from Central City]
The Flash 1x05, ""Plastique"

I'm aware. I'm going through the Arrow and Legends timestamps in my personal document right now.

Okay. I'm pretty sure that's the only continuity issue, at least that I'm aware of.

Well, other than what I've mentioned before. Arrow 3x18 takes place immediately after 3x17, but The Flash 1x18 has to take place between them, so somehow, there's a bit where you'd need to pause, assume The Flash 1x18 happens, and then continue. Maybe... anyway, it has to do with Ray Palmer's suit being damaged by Oliver.

The wiki places The Flash 1x22 as occurring between Arrow 3x20 and 3x21, but I don't think it matters. They did it due to the whole... League of Assassins outfit.

Updated for Freedom Fighters: The Ray - The Movie.

EDIT: Moved it to May 2017, since it's said in the movie that Ray graduated college in 2017. (Which would have to be May at the latest, but before The Flash and Arrow's final two episodes of their then-current seasons.)

I missed this. Hm... maybe you're right and the November 2018 (2017) date can be ignored or you could assume that there's a time jump.

EDIT: Nevermind. I don't know when it's set.

I asked you a question in the Stephen King thread.

I got 16 days to fix the time stamps for Arrow - otherwise I gotta dig through dozens of my blurays.
I just don't have the time...

Yeah no I don't have time.

Gonna have to depend on blurays.

In Constantine 1x09, "The Saint of Last Resorts, Part 2", it appears as if there's Day of the Dead celebrations. I suppose you could argue it's set 11 months after episode 8, technically... but, well, that sets it VERY close to the Arrow crossover.

I noticed this ages ago but yes, I think it is close to the crossover with Arrowverse because not long after that, in the Arrow episode “Taken” (with Vixen), John was said to be in Hell solving some incident during that time according to Oliver.

In the Hellblazer comics, the first day of Spring (Arrow’s “Taken” took place around this time) is when Zed’s father’s cult (who also disappeared in the Constantine show), ritualisticly had her r—p—‘d (yikes) by an angel in order to have her conceive a baby (which John ‘tainted’ before the ritual via Swamp Thing’s abilities he borrowed). The cult gets destroyed by the Wrath of God, Zed included sadly, John gets sent to Hell in the Green by Nergal, yadda yadda, he outsmarts him then gives powers back to Swampy.

Now…NONE of that would have happened in the NBC show let alone offscreen in the Arrowverse. Zed’s thing in the show was a brain tumor and probably would have involved a portal from Hell to Heaven, not SA. I think John just defeats Manny in Hell in early 2016, in my headcanon removing Neron’s spirit from Amenadiel’s body, then Amenadiel months later goes to check on Lucifer on Earth-666 in an unseen pre-Crisis version of those events.

(The problem with complicated “inside lore” like this is it’s never gonna be explained in a manner casual audiences will understand. This is why I hope for another Earth-Prime comic run in the future to fill in blanks like these. Shows like Batwoman, S&L, Naomi and maybe even Pennyworth were all one season short of making that bridging point from something standalone to something more.)

Do you think Arrow 4x05 might actually occur between episodes of Constantine? That'd be really interesting.

That, or his appearance in Arrow is shortly after episode 13. Perhaps even very shortly after the Manny reveal.
