- ↑ In Marathon, the location of the city was shown on the world map with no labels of states. Later in I Am Legends, the same section of location was shown on the globe as California for a brief glimpse. However, it was shown that Central City and National City are a river apart in Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Five.
