'''''Who's Who:  The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe''''' (1985–87), usually referred to simply as '''''Who's Who''''', is the umbrella title for a number of comic book series which [[DC Comics]] published to catalogue the wide variety of fictional characters in their imaginary universe, the [[DC Universe]].
'''''Who's Who:  The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe''''' (1985–87), usually referred to simply as '''''Who's Who''''', is the umbrella title for a number of comic book series which [[DC Comics]] published to catalogue information about their characters.


==History==
==History==
''Who's Who'' was the creation of [[Len Wein]], [[Marv Wolfman]], and [[Robert Greenberger]], and its first incarnation (''Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe'') debuted in the last month of 1984 ([[Cover date|cover-date]]d March 1985) and ran for 26 issues until 1987 (cover-dated April 1987). It was essentially an [[encyclopedia]] in [[comic book]] form, listing the characters, places, and technology in the DC Universe,{{citation needed|date=September 2021}} with a [[loose leaf]] format devised by editor [[Michael Eury]].<ref name=AtomicJunkShop>{{cite web|url=http://atomicjunkshop.com/hero-a-go-go-michael-eury/|author=Trumbull, John|title=Inside HERO-A-GO-GO with Michael Eury!|publisher=Atomic Junk Shop|date=May 8, 2017|accessdate=September 21, 2021|archivedate=May 9, 2017|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170509050224/http://atomicjunkshop.com/hero-a-go-go-michael-eury/}}</ref> It began one month before the 12-issue [[Limited series (comics)|limited series]] ''[[Crisis on Infinite Earths]]'' began; therefore, the earlier issues discuss Pre-''Crisis'' versions of the characters, whereas issues released after the conclusion of the limited series discuss the Post-''Crisis'' versions. For example, while both the [[Barry Allen|Flash]] and [[Supergirl (Kara Zor-El)|Supergirl]] died during the ''Crisis'', the Flash's death is not mentioned as issue #8 predates his death, but Supergirl's death is recounted 14 months later in issue #22. Also, characters such as [[Superman]] and [[Wonder Woman]] were rebooted during the series' run, so their entries recounted their Post-''Crisis'' histories only, while their entire [[Silver Age of Comic Books|Silver Age]] histories (and all the unique elements of those characters during that time, such as Superman's [[Fortress of Solitude]] and Wonder Woman's powerless period) were ignored.{{citation needed|date=September 2021}}

''Who's Who'' was DC's answer to ''[[The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe]]'', which was published a few years earlier. Each character had an individualized logo instead of a standard typeface; figures were shown in action poses rather than full-body portraits drawn by individual artists; character histories and power descriptions were more vague; and characters from all of DC's various lines and imprints were included (such as out-of-[[Continuity (fiction)|continuity]] series like ''[[Camelot 3000]]'' and ''[[Watchmen]]''), not just those from its [[shared universe]] (although ''Who's Who Update '88'' did limit its entries to in-continuity series only).{{citation needed|date=September 2021}}

Various updated versions of the ''Who's Who'' have appeared over the years, including ''Who's Who Update '87'' (five issues, cover dated August to December 1987) and ''Who's Who Update '88'' (four issues, cover dated August to November 1988). Both books featured new entries, revised entries for characters in previous volumes, and an Appendix which included minor updates and corrections for previous entries. In 1989, most of the DC ''Annual''s released that year included ''Who's Who'' entries.{{efn|name=fn1|The following ''Annual''s released in 1989 did not have ''Who's Who'' entries: ''[[Doc Savage]] Annual'' #1, ''[[Hellblazer]] Annual'' #1, and ''[[The Shadow]] Strikes!

DC Comics also put out two ''Who's Who'' [[Spin-off (media)|spin-off]] series in the 1980s. The first was ''Who's Who in [[Star Trek]]'', a two-issue series (cover-dated March and April 1987) which profiled many of the people and places from the 1960s [[Star Trek: The Original Series|''Star Trek'']] series (and subsequent movies), the 1970s [[Star Trek: The Animated Series|animated series]] and the 1980s ''Star Trek'' comic book published by DC. As the series was released prior to the premiere of ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'', no information from that series was included.{{citation needed|date=September 2021}}

The second spin-off was ''Who's Who in the [[Legion of Super-Heroes]]'', a seven-issue series (cover-dated April to November 1988) which expanded on the Legion information included in the regular ''Who's Who'' and featured profiles on the various supporting characters, organizations, locations and villains which have appeared in Legion stories over the years. Some of the information contained in this book was Post-''Crisis'' instead of Pre-''Crisis''. For example, the [[Superboy]] profile relates the Post-''Crisis'' origin of the character as a creation of the [[Time Trapper]], and there is no profile for Supergirl, despite her many adventures with the Legion, since by this time she was written out of continuity.{{citation needed|date=September 2021}}

In 1990, DC started over with a new ''Who's Who'' series titled ''Who's Who in the DC Universe'' (16 loose-leaf issues with binders sold separately, cover-dated August 1990 to February 1992). This book was not as comprehensive as the previous ''Who's Who'' (for example, there was no entry for the [[Atom (comics)|Atom]], even though his character was undergoing major changes in the comic ''[[Suicide Squad]]''), and some of the entries took on a less serious tone. One instance is an entry for [[Guy Gardner (comics)|Guy Gardner]], which is written from the character's perspective. Another instance is a blank entry for [[Death (DC Comics)|Death]], which has all the usual information headings crossed out and blue marker scrawl stating simply "Someday you'll meet her. You can find out for yourself".{{citation needed|date=September 2021}}

This series was followed up by ''Who's Who in the DC Universe Update 1993'' (two loose-leaf issues, cover-dated December 1992 and January 1993). DC also released a ''Who's Who'' series for their [[Impact Comics]] line (three loose-leaf issues, cover-dated September 1991 to May 1992).{{citation needed|date=September 2021}}

During the period from the late 1990s through the end of the 2000s, ''Who's Who'' was replaced with ''[[Secret Files and Origins]]'', a series of [[One-shot (comics)|one-shots]] devoted to particular characters or events in the DC Universe and which feature ''Who's Who''-like profiles. [[Dorling Kindersley|DK Publishing]] has also released a number of ''Ultimate Guides'', as well as a book titled ''The DC Comics Encyclopedia'', which serve a similar purpose.{{citation needed|date=September 2021}}

Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe (1985–87), usually referred to simply as Who's Who, is the umbrella title for a number of comic book series which DC Comics published to catalogue information about their characters.

History

Who's Who was the creation of Len Wein, Marv Wolfman, and Robert Greenberger, and its first incarnation (Who's Who: The Definitive Directory of the DC Universe) debuted in the last month of 1984 (cover-dated March 1985) and ran for 26 issues until 1987 (cover-dated April 1987). It was essentially an encyclopedia in comic book form, listing the characters, places, and technology in the DC Universe,Script error: No such module "Unsubst". with a loose leaf format devised by editor Michael Eury.[1] It began one month before the 12-issue limited series Crisis on Infinite Earths began; therefore, the earlier issues discuss pre-Crisis versions of the characters, whereas issues released after the conclusion of the limited series discuss the post-Crisis versions. For example, while both the Flash and Supergirl died during the Crisis, the Flash's death is not mentioned as issue #8 predates his death, but Supergirl's death is recounted 14 months later in issue #22. Also, characters such as Superman and Wonder Woman were rebooted during the series' run, so their entries recounted their post-Crisis histories only, while their entire Silver Age histories (and all the unique elements of those characters during that time, such as Superman's Fortress of Solitude and Wonder Woman's powerless period) were ignored.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

Who's Who was DC's answer to The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, which was published a few years earlier. Each character had an individualized logo instead of a standard typeface; figures were shown in action poses rather than full-body portraits drawn by individual artists; character histories and power descriptions were more vague; and characters from all of DC's various lines and imprints were included (such as out-of-continuity series like Camelot 3000 and Watchmen), not just those from its shared universe (although Who's Who Update '88 did limit its entries to in-continuity series only).Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

Various updated versions of the Who's Who have appeared over the years, including Who's Who Update '87 (five issues, cover dated August to December 1987) and Who's Who Update '88 (four issues, cover dated August to November 1988). Both books featured new entries, revised entries for characters in previous volumes, and an Appendix which included minor updates and corrections for previous entries. In 1989, most of the DC Annuals released that year included Who's Who entries.Template:Efn Many of these were revised versions of entries in the regular Who's Who series, but there were several new entries (particularly for supporting characters).Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

DC Comics also published two Who's Who spin-off series in the 1980s. The first was Who's Who in Star Trek, a two-issue series (cover-dated March and April 1987) which profiled many of the people and places from the Star Trek franchise. As the series was released prior to the premiere of Star Trek: The Next Generation, no information from that series was included.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

The second spin-off was Who's Who in the Legion of Super-Heroes, a seven-issue series (cover-dated April to November 1988) which expanded on the Legion information included in the regular Who's Who and featured profiles on the various supporting characters, organizations, locations and villains which have appeared in Legion stories over the years. Some of the information contained in this book was post-Crisis instead of pre-Crisis. For example, the Superboy profile relates the post-Crisis origin of the character as a creation of the Time Trapper, and there is no profile for Supergirl, despite her many adventures with the Legion, since by this time she was written out of continuity.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

In 1990, DC started over with a new Who's Who series titled Who's Who in the DC Universe (16 loose-leaf issues with binders sold separately, cover-dated August 1990 to February 1992). This book was not as comprehensive as the previous Who's Who (for example, there was no entry for the Atom, even though his character was undergoing major changes in the comic Suicide Squad), and some of the entries took on a less serious tone. One instance is an entry for Guy Gardner, which is written from the character's perspective. Another instance is a blank entry for Death, which has all the usual information headings crossed out and a blue marker scrawl stating simply "Someday you'll meet her. You can find out for yourself".Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

This series was followed up by Who's Who in the DC Universe Update 1993 (two loose-leaf issues, cover-dated December 1992 and January 1993). DC also released a Who's Who series for their Impact Comics line (three loose-leaf issues, cover-dated September 1991 to May 1992).Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

During the period from the late 1990s through the end of the 2000s, Who's Who was replaced with Secret Files and Origins, a series of one-shots devoted to particular characters or events in the DC Universe and which feature Who's Who-like profiles. DK Publishing has also released a number of Ultimate Guides, as well as a book titled The DC Comics Encyclopedia, which serve a similar purpose.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".

In December 2009, DC announced a new Who's Who series to be published in 2010 as part of the company's 75th anniversary celebration.[2] The series was later announced for 18 issues, 48 pages per issue, beginning in May 2010 with Robert Greenberger as sole writer and Bob Harras as editor.[3][4][5] The series launch was subsequently delayed,[6][7] but in October DC vice-president Dan DiDio stated that the series would be released after the 2011 DCU line-wide event, Flashpoint.[8] Flashpoint and The New 52 rebooted the DC Universe, making a new edition of Who's Who unlikely in the short term because the histories of many characters were in a state of flux.

In 2022, The New Golden Age one-shot included 12 new Who's Who-style entries: Aquaman, Betsy Ross and Molly Pitcher, Cherry Bomb, Harlequin's Son, John Henry Jr., Ladybug, Legionnaire, Mister Miracle, Quiz Kid, Red Lantern, Salem the Witch Girl, and The Boom.

In 2023, the DC Power: A Celebration one-shot included 10 new Who's Who-style entries: Amazing-Man, Aquaman (Jackson Hyde), Batman (Jace Fox), Batwing, Nubia, Green Lantern (Jo Mullein), Green Lantern (John Stewart), Kid Flash (Ace West), Thunder/Lightning, and Vixen.

The DC Power 2024 one-shot included five new Who's Who-style entries: Black Manta, Mister Terrific (Michael Holt), The Signal, The Spectre (Crispus Allen), and Val-Zod.
