Weirdoverse

Weirdoverse

The Weirdoverse is a name that refers to a group of semi-related comic book series published from late 1996 to 1998 by DC Comics. The idea of Dan Thorsland (the editor of all four series), the Weirdoverse titles were connected by the fact that they all fell into the mystery/occult genre. [Grant, Steven [http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=13467 Master of the Obvious] comicbookresources.com September 27, 2000] Despite the name making it sound like the four series were set in their own universe, all were connected to DC's main shared universe, the DC Universe.

The four books that made up the Weirdoverse were:

*"The Book of Fate" (12 Issues February 1997 - January 1998) [gcdb series|id=12021|title="The Book of Fate"]
*Challengers of the Unknown (18 Issues February 1997 - July 1998) [gcdb series|id=5732|title="Challengers of the Unknown"]
*Night Force (12 Issues December 1996 - November 1997) [gcdb series|id=12196|title="Night Force"]
*Scare Tactics (12 Issues December 1996 - March 1998) [gcdb series|id=10045|title="Scare Tactics"]

Convergence

The Weirdoverse books were involved in one single crossover. The story was titled "Convergence" and took place in all four series' July 1997 dated issues. [ [http://www.challengersoftheunknown.com/COTUV306.html challengersoftheunknown.com: Convergence] ]
