The Atlas of the DC Universe byPaul Kupperberg was published in 1990 byMayfair Games as a supplement to itsDC Heroes role-playing game. It includes maps and information about locations in theDC Universe; for example, it placesMetropolis inDelaware andGotham City inNew Jersey.[1]
The Atlas of the DC Universe was designed to serve both as a gaming material for theDC Heroes role-playing game, published by Mayfair, and a standalone "in-universe" reference book for the fans of DC Comics. Many of the cities, such as Metropolis and Star City, were given exact locations on maps provided within the book.[2]
Maps of the galaxy, and other important planets within the DC universe are also included.[3]
Gene Alloway reviewedThe Atlas of the DC Universe inWhite Wolf #31 (May/June, 1992), rating it a 3 out of 5 and stated that "The Atlas is a good product, despite some areas that might need some added information. The layout is straightforward, clear, and not flashy, but sufficient. I recommend this one highly for the one-stop shopping for geography it offers alone."[4]
