The Tomorrowverse is a Shared Universe that exists as part of the DC Universe Animated Original Movies line starting in 2020. It replaced the DC Animated Movie Universe, which officially ended a few months before this film series began. Like the DCAMU this continuity has yet to receive an official name, but fans have been quick to name it.Unlike the Darker and Edgier DCAMU which at first took heavy inspiration from the New 52 era of DC's history, the Tomorrowverse is a Lighter and Softer film series that has so far told original stories influenced by more popular eras of DC's history alongside adaptations of Post-Crisis comics. Many were quick to compare it to the DC Rebirth relaunch. Also unlike the DCAMU, which started with the formation of the Justice League and quickly established that many heroes were already active, this series starts in the early years of the DC universe with characters like Superman and Batman only recently making their debuts before introducing the Justice League.

Breaking Old Trends: Crisis is the first adaptation to be spread across three movies as opposed to only one or two.

The Future: Legion of Super-Heroes is mainly set in the 31st century, a thousand years after the present of the Tomorrowverse. The Kamandi short is set an unspecified time in the future of Earth-2.

Time Skip
 Tomorrowverse / int_5fcb9ad1
comment
Time Skip: The Tomorrowverse is fond of these, often skipping over certain plot points or events to tell a specific story. Beware My Power is a noticeable example of this as it skips the Justice League officially forming and creating the Watchtower, Martian Manhunter returning to Earth and the debuts of Wonder Woman and Vixen.

Alternate Universe: The majority of Justice Society: World War II takes place on Earth-2 instead of the past like the Earth-1 Flash had believed. However the Helmet of Nabu is apparently powerful enough to see the future of alternate universes, and Dr Fate brought the Flash to Earth-2 to help create the Justice League. Crisis on Infinite Earths features a number of new realities and heroes from them. It also confirms that the Blue Beetle short is set in an alternate world to the Tomorrowverse.

 Tomorrowverse / int_8a07e085
comment
Denser and Wackier: A downplayed example in comparison to the DCAMU, which had plenty of science fiction and fantasy elements such as time travel, magic and New God technology from Apokolips. However due to a heavy focus on Batman and influences from New 52 comics, the universe was rather grounded for the most part. The second film features an Alternate Universe, the fifth film explores an interplanetary war, and the sixth film introduces a superhero team in the 31st century that the present day heroes can visit, which makes it seem more fantastical than the DCAMU.

Continuity Reboot: This continuity was created after the conclusion of the DCAMU, and technically began the same time the DCAMU ended since the Adam Strange short was released in the Blu-Ray version of Justice League Dark: Apokolips War as part of the bonus features.

Animated Adaptation
 Tomorrowverse / int_a68421bb
comment
Animated Adaptation: While the story is original, the most noticeable influences on Man of Tomorrow are Superman: American Alien in regards to Superman's Beta Outfit and the presence of Lobo along with Superman: Secret Origin with the use of Parasite as the villain. The Long Halloween adapts the comic of the same name. Both Adam Strange and Beware My Power serve as loose adaptions of the Rann-Thanagar War storyline from the comics, while the latter also uses story elements from Emerald Twilight in regards to the Green Lantern Corps.

Lighter and Softer: In comparison to the DCAMU, which started and ended pretty dark with the characters only becoming more optimistic during the middle. Even Superman started out as a Smug Super in the DCAMU before becoming the All-Loving Hero he is famous for being, while here he more or less starts out as the latter. It's even a literal example as the art style is far more colorful than the DCAMU.

Younger and Hipper: Again in comparison to the DCAMU which started with many of the heroes having been active for a few years as both heroes and civilians, with Clark and Lois in comparison being an intern and a grad student in Man of Tomorrow. This is very noticeable with Batman who, in the DCAMU, had already trained Nightwing and had a ten year old son, while here he has only been a crime fighter for a few years.
