Who's Who in the DC Universe is a series of role-playing supplements for DC Heroes published by Mayfair Games from 1992 to 1993.

Contents

Who's Who in the DC Universe is a supplement in which characters, equipment, and locations are described.

Publication history

Shannon Appelcline noted that although Mayfair was closing down their other role-playing lines by 1993, "It looked like DC Heroes might continue, as it was reaching a new creative high in its final years. Swamp Thing (1991), Magic (1992) and Who's Who in the DC Universe 2 (1992) all covered new ground for the game by detailing people and places that were then gelling into DC's new Vertigo universe (1993)."

Reception

Gene Alloway reviewed Who's Who in the DC Universe I, II, and III in White Wolf #37 (July/Aug., 1993), rating it a 4 out of 5 and stated that "Who's Who in the DC Universe is a worthy addition to the DC Heroes line of products. Covering virtually every object and character of any note in the DC Universe, it should provide characters and GM's with a great cast book for characters, or to at least get ideas for new characters. I highly recommend this Mayfair series to all DC Heroes and any DC Comics fan who wants a great resource."
