Shared Universe - Animated Universes

Animated Universes

An animated universe is a derivative of the shared universe that applies to animated works, including animated television series and films, which share the same characters and continuity with each other; it may also derive from the characters and continuity of previous literary serial works, including comics, and may thus be termed by the literary work from whence it derived. Notable examples of the animated universe include:

  • DC animated universe (1992–2006)
  • Marvel animated universe (1992–2000)
  • Marvel new animated universe (2008-present)
  • Gundam "metaseries" (1979–present)

Famous quotes containing the word animated:

    Uncle Ben’s brass bullet-mould
    And powder horn, and Major Bogan’s face
    Above the fire, in the half-light, plainly said
    There’s naught to kill but the animated dead;
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
