Is there any sort of on-line resource page that list what's been done in DC's Elseworld series?
(I'm going to art school right now to learn to draw comics, and I really want to draw Batman ones some day... I've had sereval ideas for Elseworld storylines [as those give you the most creative freedom] but I want to make sure they haven't been done beofore I develope the lose ideas into pitchable stories to beg DC to employ me with)

Thanks a lot, Onslaught, that does help.
hmmm, doesn't seem like my ideas have been done, and hopefully won't be for the next 4 or so years...

I want to see these stories, too, actually (and I'm another mostly-non-DC reader).

Good luck with your quest to get published, the comic industry can always use fresh new blood in it. ^^ And Elseworlds is such a cool idea, though DC has gotten away from it a bit this year...
I've flipped through one or two and enjoyed them, even though I'm mostly a manga person these days...Though I should pick up the Batman stuff just to see how this Bruce Wayne fugitive story ends up..{Picked up the 10 cent adventure, which was a nice comic...Batman always rocks for a good read..)

I always thought that Elseworlds was one of the coolest things about DC. It's like DC's version of What If? Speaking of What if? does any other comic book fan here miss the What If? comics as much as I do?

Oh yes, I miss What If?, I admitt it, I'm a sucker for alternate realities.

Some of my favorite issues were What if....Hulk killed Wolverine, Wolverine killed Hulk, Kraven had killed Spider-man...and there were a few others but I haven't seen any What Ifs in a while.
Alternate Realities, eh? That gives me an idea....

My fave stories were "What If Wolverine battle Weapon X, what if Stryfe and Apocalypse killed the X-men, among others. Idea? maybe a topic about alternate realities of the videogame chars?

Iliked the older run of What If's myself, as they tended to have a bit neater done stories. Stuff like What if Sue Storm stayed with Namor, What if Uncle Ben Lived, What if Tony Stark remained in medival England...
The new run of What IF started out okay, but like alot of Marvel stuff in the early 90's it seemed to run out of steam...(I would like to see it started up again...).
