Writer E. Nelson Bridwell of the Super Friends (comic book) would do his best to tie in the comic book to known canon by footnotes referring to various DC Comics stories of the time. Eventually, DC Comics decided that the SuperFriends cartoons were not considered canon. So, fans figured it was probably set on its own Earth’ referring to it as Earth-1A, since it was so similar to the Pre-Crisis^[1] Earth-One.^[2]

This continuity includes the comic books and the animated series (and perhaps any spin-off shows).

One of the most striking elements of this reality was that its heroes were absolute paragons of virtue, with no fault or flaws to speak of. They were incorruptible and wholly committed to helping others while preserving the doctrines of “truth, justice and peace for all mankind.”

[edit] Here are a few of the similarities between Earth-1A and Earth-One:

• Most of the Heroes and Villains resembled the Silver Age / Earth-One Characters exactly

(Earth-One characters link directly to the DC Database wiki):

Silver Age / Earth One Superman (Earth-One) Katar Hol a Thanagarian as Hawkman (Earth-One) Ray Palmer as The Atom (Earth-One) Barry Allen as the Flash (Earth-One) Hal Jordan as Green Lantern (Earth-One)

Earth-1A Superman (Earth-1A) Hawkman (Earth-1A) The Atom (Earth-1A) The Flash (Earth-1A) Green Lantern (Earth-1A)

• The Batman of Earth-One and Earth-1A had a relationship with a woman named Silver St. Cloud.^[?]

[edit] Here are a few of the differences between Earth-1A and Earth-One:

• The SuperFriends Universe included characters that had counterparts on Earth-Two but not Earth-One

• T.N.T (Earth-Two) - as seen in (need reference)^[?]
• Dan the Dyna-Mite (Earth-Two) - as seen in (need reference)^[?]
• Huntress

• The SuperFriends Universe also had a Captain Marvel, whereas on Earth-One he did not exist. In a separate universe, Earth-S^[3] a Captain Marvel did exist.

[edit] Characters unique to this reality:

• Black Vulcan
• Samurai
• Apache Chief
• El Dorado
