Net.Trenchcoat Brigade Timeline, or What Bloody Stuff Goes In What Bloody Order

Based on the work of Arthur Spitzer. Format by Mike Escutia.

This timeline also includes any Classic LNH stories directly relevant to the NTB, which are marked with an [L], and stories from other RACC imprints, which are marked with an [R].

It's not unreasonable to assume that the NTB stories take place in something closer to "real time," much like Vertigo's Hellblazer, but as always, it depends on the individual story.

See also the Classic LNH Timeline.

Footnotes

  1. ↑ The Pre-Wave involves the beginnings of various LNH characters who play a key role in the NTB Universe. It could also be said that Swamp Thing #50 and the Books of Magic LS could be placed here too.
  2. ↑ Integrity Quest contains the first appearance of Kid Anarky.
  3. ↑ The Bellerophon Gambit contains the Dvandom Stranger's origin and first appearance.
  4. ↑ This is the true beginning of the NTB.
  5. ↑ Esoterica: Rebirth is mostly set before the Wrath of the Administrator, but was also written a long time after it and contains some references to WotA, so it would probably be best to read WotA first.
  6. ↑ Bad Forms was an LNH crossover that had Acton Lord revive the NTB's arch-nemesis, the Universal Office, kind of a sequel to the WotA. It also had Kid Anarky and the Dvandom Stranger in it.
