LoganC22's Dark Universe (Abbreviated LCDU) is a media franchise and shared universe created by LoganC22. It is a loose reboot of Dark Universe, a film series created by Universal Studios in 2017. Like its namesake, the LCDU is based on Universal Monsters, a classic film series from the 1920s-1950s and one that is widely considered to be one of the first examples of a shared universe. Unlike either series, the LCDU takes an e-novel approach in its structure.

Franchise Overview
According to LoganC22, the LCDU is a loose reboot of Universal's original intentions for its Dark Universe, which was a shared universe featuring reimagined takes on its classic monsters as well as interconnectivity between installments. After 2017's The Mummy, these intentions were shelved in the favor of standalone, individualized movies.

Aside from retaining its namesake's intended interconnectivity, the LCDU is different in approach than its namesake in several ways, notably in its presentation. Rather than a film, each installment is an e-novel, with the bulk of them featuring an epilogue (or epilogues) which serve as LoganC22's version(s) of the post-credit scenes Marvel Studios uses in its Marvel Cinematic Universe. In addition, the LCDU also features characters not entirely associated with the classic Universal Monsters.
