Revision as of 05:42, 21 January 2021

In-universe but non-narrative fiction, as discussed at Thread:282038. Although this is my own sandbox, feel free to help complete the list or rectify any errors. I do not own many of these books/sources and have had to gather information from their wiki pages, previews, summaries, reviews, and online listings, so there may be mistakes.

I have listed the following categories:

  • Presented as in-universe material, where the material is portrayed as actually existing within the DWU;
  • In-universe perspective, where there is an omniscient "narrator" stating things as fact, but not an actual narrative;
  • In-universe perspective but cites sources, same as above but facts are attributed to the story they originate from;
  • Unsure, where either the interpretation as to which above category the material should belong to is contentious, or where I know the material exists but have not yet seen enough of it to discern which category it belongs in.

Additional note: Some "features", as labelled in the annuals, are actually narrative, and so are not listed here. (e.g. Problem of the Painted Planet)
