The Arrowverse is a shared continuity in which several television adaptations of DC comics heroes co-exist within the same universe. The name derives from the CW-aired television show Arrow, based on the character of The Green Arrow, which was the first show set in the shared universe.
Most of the programs that make up the shared universe are made by the same team of creators/producers: Greg Berlanti, Marc Guggenheim and Andrew Kreisberg.
