History
Earth-2 is thought to have one of fifty-one divergent realities that branched from the core New Earth reality during the recreation of the Multiverse shortly following the events of Infinite Crisis.
However, it remembered there being a multiverse and "red skies" (a common reference to Crisis on Infinite Earths).
The primary heroic group of Earth-2 is Justice Society Infinity, an amalgamation of the older Justice Society of America and Infinity Inc.

Notes
- All of DC's Golden Age super-heroes were retroactively allocated to Earth-Two prior to the event known as Crisis on Infinite Earths. At the close of the Crisis, the surviving parallel Earths were merged together and a new shared continuity was established colloquially known as New Earth.
- Earth-2 appears identical to that of the Earth-Two alternate reality as its Kryptonite effects the New Earth Power Girl.
Trivia
- When New Earth Power Girl arrives on Earth-2 she is told that Jay Garrick and Alan Scott are retired but still there (implying both are alive), however when Earth-2 Jade and New Earth Alan Scott meet they both exclaim "But you're dead."
- The term "Earth-2" has been used to refer to other Earths:
- The DC Primary Earth was named "Earth-2" by the Anti-Matter Lex Luthor in JLA: Earth-2.
- Marvel's Earth-616 in JLA/Avengers #3 is called "Earth-2" by Hal Jordan.
