DC Universe

The DC Universe is the fictional shared universe where most stories in American comic book titles published by DC Comics take place. DC superheroes such as "Superman," "Batman," and "Wonder Woman" are from this universe, and it also contains well-known supervillains such as "Lex Luthor," "the Joker," and "Darkseid."
The term "DC Multiverse" usually refers to the collection of all continuities within DC Comics publications. Within the Multiverse, the main DC Universe has gone by many names, but in recent years has been referred to by "Prime Earth" (not to be confused with "Earth Prime") or "Earth 0."
The main DC Universe, as well as the alternate realities related to it, began as the first shared universe in comic books and were quickly adapted to other media such as film serials or radio dramas. In subsequent decades, the continuity between all of these media became increasingly complex with certain storylines and events designed to simplify or streamline the more confusing aspects of characters' histories.

==Integration into the Shaniverse==
Within the Shaniverse, the DC Universe is vastly more limited in its content compared to the other joined franchises. This was done so as to not overcomplicate what existed in the same universe, particularly with the characters and storylines of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
As a result of this crossover, the only DC media included in the Shaniverse are the characters and storylines from Zack Snyder's DCEU movies, which include "Man of Steel" and "Wonder Woman," as well as "Batman V Superman: Ultimate Edition" and "Zack Snyder's Justice League" (it should be noted, however, that "Superman" and "Wonder Woman" will be the only DC superheroes included from those films). The 2008 film "The Dark Knight" is also a form of DC media included in the Shaniverse, though the Joker is the only character from the movie being used, as the movie's plot is fused together with the Avatar franchise, more specifically during the Legend of Korra era).
Any other media from the DC Universe, whether it is characters, storylines, or concepts, are considered non-canon to the Shaniverse unless specified otherwise by the author.
