Notes
- Clock King was created by Ed Herron and Lee Elias, first appearing in World's Finest #111. However, in the Prime Earth continuity, Clock King first appeared as part of the New 52 DC Universe in Batman: The Dark Knight (Volume 2) #2 by Paul Jenkins and David Finch.
- Despite being referred to as the third Clock King on this website, this Clock King is actually the first to appear in the New 52 continuity, first appearing as one of the villains affected by Bane's super Venom in Batman: The Dark Knight (Volume 2) #2. However, due to this comic's release so close to the start of the reboot, his appearance was ultimately ignored by writers in the years following, who would introduce both Billy Tockman and Clock King II as his replacements. It wasn't until Deathstroke: Rebirth #1 in 2016 that this Clock King was reintroduced, therefore retroactively making his first appearance five years earlier canon again.
