Earth 2 (AKA Earth-Two) is a alternate universe in the DC Multiverse, in which the heroes of the Golden Age have lived on and grown older. Earth 2 was the original DC Universe in the Golden Age (from the late 30's to the mid-50's).
History
Though there were super-powered beings for the longest time, the superhumans (and superheroes) first emerged during the depression. The first truly notable one was Superman, a young man who began his career by fighting crime in Metropolis, with a big focus on social injustice, fighting slum lords, abusive husbands and lobbyists.
