Summary
So, you’re reading DC comics and a government agency pops up that you’re reasonably sure doesn’t exist in the real world. Who are they? What’s their deal? Here’s a quick primer on some of the groups that you may encounter.
A few notes and disclaimers: This writeup is primarily based on post-Crisis, pre-New 52 canon. I’ve tried to note exceptions. Also, several of these stories use historical markers tied to the real world, which makes less sense as we get farther away in time from the original publication. DC eventually stopped using real people and events so frequently to address this problem, but I’m going to include the historical markers as depicted in the source material, even if that means the same Batman is supposed to have been active in the 70s and also in 2011. Just don’t worry about it.
Chapter 1 provides organizational histories and descriptions for the thirteen agencies tagged in this fic.
Chapter 2 places the histories into a timeline, to better help track how people moved between agencies and events unfolded.
Chapter 3 is recommended reading, should you also want to dive into this slice of the DCU.A special thank you to my editors and fact checkers, who made this all possible.
