  22. 22.0 22.1 Despite not confirmed, it is implied that the earthquake shown in a flashback of "Lights Out" could be the 2014 South Napa earthquake, which occurred in California between Superman's revelation (December 2013) and Superman's death (November 2015).
  23. Suicide Squad: Behind the Scenes with the Worst Heroes Ever
  24. In Suicide Squad, set in June–August 2016, it is shown that Floyd Lawton was arrested one recent Christmas-time. It is also shown that Zoe, Floyd's daughter, wrote one of many letters to him in his imprisonment on "07 SEPT 2014". This means the latest December Floyd can have been arrested in is December 2013. It cannot realistically be any earlier than this, due to Zoe looking the same as she does in 2016, and it being implied to be recent.
  25. Aquaman
  26. The comic presumably takes place during September 2014. Jacob Washington's teacher claims that her students read Clark Kent's articles by "months" and Lucas starts his school year on the same day. Despite it's confirmed that the day is a Friday, it isn't revealed which one: it could be the third one (19th), due to Jacob's school year being started by enough time.
  27. The Suicide Squad
  28. Justice League
  29. 29.0 29.1 29.2 29.3 29.4 These dates are shown on various Batcomputer screens that were made for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice by G Creative.
