List of cosmic entities in DC Comics
This is a list of cosmic entities owned or published primarily by DC Comics. In superhero comic books, cosmic beings are fictional characters possessing superpowers in a planetary, stellar, or even universal level, far beyond those of humans or superheroes, and usually serving some natural function in the fictional universes they exist in.
Note: most, but not all, of these characters exist within the DC Universe. Some listed are part of the Wildstorm Universe, others of Alan Moore's America's Best Comics line, and others are characters from stand-alone stories, Elseworlds publications, or from companies listed with reference and published by DC Comics. America's Best Comics, Elseworlds, Helix, Homage Comics, Impact Comics, Milestone Media, Paradox Press, Piranha Press, Vertigo Comics, and Wildstorm are all trademark publications of the DC Comics group.
