The following information is about Crisis.

Crisis Defined

Usually accompanied by either "pre-" or "post-", this is shorthand for "Crisis On Infinite Earths," a year-long comic series from DC in 1986. "Crisis" made major changes to the established "history" of the DC Universe, and though in some cases it succeeded in simplifying that history, the overall effect was like a cosmic housecleaning. Before the Crisis, the DCU included many "alternate" Earths where there existed variations on DC's primary heroes, as well as many Earths with radically different histories and heroes. In the Crisis, most of these Earths were destroyed, and the rest were merged into one...the "post-Crisis" Earth of the DC Universe. Since then many of the characters (Wonder Woman foremost among them) who were killed off in Crisis have returned to comics, and continuity in the DCU is almost as muddled as it was before the changes.

This definition is in context to Comic Books. See more contextual defintions for Crisis.
