| abstract | - In an alternate reality, a version of history existed where the galaxy was populated by powerful races and cultures. This separate universe had organizations that included the Green Lantern Corps and the Legion of Super-Heroes. (TOS - The Spectrum War comic: "Issue 1") The DC continuity encompasses many parallel versions in and of itself, a multiverse, owing to the long publishing history of DC Comics. It is interesting to note that, while The Spectrum War includes the Green Lantern from The New 52, a modern version of all the characters, the Star Trek—Legion of Super-Heroes series depicts the Legion from before the Crisis on Infinite Earths. That series specifically shows the Legion from the 1980s, before their history was revised and the series restarted a number of times. Also, in light of events shown in The Spectrum War, it seems unlikely that the Legion of Super-Heroes came from the exact alternate universe that the Lanterns escaped from.
