When Does the TV Show "Naomi" (2022) Take Place?

"Naomi" is a superhero television series showran by Ava DuVernay with Jill Blankenship [adapting "Naomi" #1-#5? (2019) by Brian Michael Bendis with David F. Walker] that released January 11th, 2022. So when is "Naomi" set? 


It takes place on an alternate timeline of the fictional DC Films Universe in the year: 

2021 AD 


We know this because in episode two "Unidentified Flying Object" a large banner is visible in the Port Oswego High School hallway that reads "PORT OSWEGO  HIGH SCHOOL  FOOTBALL  2020  DISTRICT  CHAMPIONS" so it must be during or after 2020 AD. 

More specifically, in episode one "Don't Believe Everything You Think" a "The Port Oswego Journal" newspaper front-page with the headline "Mysterious Flying Object Appears Over Port Oswego" dated for "SUNDAY, March 14th, 2004" is seen and then in episode two "Unidentified Flying Object" Annabelle Peters? says, "What exactly are we looking for? I mean, 16 years is a long time!" when they begin hunting in the woods for any remaining signs of it. So it is during or after March of 2020 AD. 

3.2,004 + 16 = 3.2,020. 

Specifically, during episode five "Shadow Ridge", Commander Steel shows Major Greg McDuffie and Doctor Jennifer McDuffie a docuent incuding a photograph which reads "EVIDENCE PHOTO: 210824-05  DATE: 10/27/21" probrably representing October 27th, 2021 AD at the top. As he hands them a second photo with the sam edate, he says, "That's because we recently dicovered the artifact." So it is October of 2021 AD. 

Additionally, episode four "Enigma" opens with a flashback depicting one side of the event reported on in "The Port Oswego Journal" newspaper front-page with the headline "Mysterious Flying Object Appears Over Port Oswego" dated for "SUNDAY, March 14th, 2004" seen in episode one "Don't Believe Everything You Think". So it must be March of 2004 AD

Later, episode seven "Shadow Ridge" begins with a flashback prologue labeled with a simple subtitle reading "SEVEN MONTHS AGO". So it is March of 2021 AD at this time. 

10.2,021 - 7 months = 3.2,021. 

Finally, episode twelve "Ready or Not" starts? with yet another flashback this time to .
