I noticed that Stormwatch seems like it could be on a different Earth.
The same with Grifter, Voodoo, and a few other titles.

However, it seems like the Jonah Hex-related title is taking place in the same universe as the Batman titles.

I thought I heard that someone was working on a multiverse title.

Do you think that the multiverse will play into the titles?

nope that shizz is closed until next year. Everything is one universe. For example a building in Jonah hEX IS going to be in Justice League.

All of the 52 relaunch titles take place on the same Earth.

Multiversity by Grant Morrison starts next year. It will cover other Earths.

It slipped my mind that something from Superman#1 plays into Stormwatch. That would seem to place them in a single universe.

Yep, all in the same universe. Stormwatch even references 'events in Superman' in it's solicits. Demon Knights takes place hundreds of years in the past, All Star Western is also in the past, I think it's the 1800's Gotham. But still in the same universe.

Some characters and concepts are coming from the Wildstorm universe, Stormwatch, Voodoo and Grifter specifically. So maybe that's why it feels like it's a different universe. But the WSU was ended nearly a year ago, the characters are now migrating to the DCU.

*edit - Now, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if The Bleed was used in Stormwatch, and they may be visited by someone/thing from the multiverse, or visit an alternate world themselves, since the Bleed was a big deal in Wildstorm, particularly with The Authority, where many of the characters are from. But their base of operations will be the DCU.

I was a big Wildstorm fan. I was just interested in the idea of Martian Manhunter and Animal Man not being a part of the mainstream DCU.
