r/DCAU
This song was pretty wild ngl
I remember watching this as a child and the stuff went over my head but wow can't believe they actually got away with this in a show like that haha
Did the JLU episode Once and future thing reset the minds of some people?
It looks like this thing bats & WW had for each other abruptly came to an end after the time reset.
From that episode onwards till the end there was no romance or flirting.
Rare instance of wack dialogue in this show
Real "first draft" vibes from this one lmao
"Get 'em." THEY COULDN'T HEAR, BUT THEY KNEW THE TIME WAS NOW!🤩
It is always SO cool to hear kids rooting for heroes! We don't even know this kid, but he knows as well as anyone else that this villain gang's gotta go DOWN! And all he needs to do is whisper 2 words.
Also, Hawkgirl, the Thanagarian, leading the war cry is so fitting! It's also a cool detail that the more Earthly heroes are staying on the ground while the aliens and space cop are flying!
Also, think about Batman here! He probably never thought he'd be IN a position like this! But he's got 6 comrades who'd die for him and vice versa, and now he gets to stand tall with them in a 7v7 showdown in front of the whole world!
Legends is an awesome tribute to the innocence of the golden age of comics...until....
Holy crap. Well, that got dark.
Jesus, that took a dark turn. Legends may well be the darkest episode of the DCAU.
Felt appropriate to do another watch of Young Justice starting today.
If any of you haven’t watched this masterpiece of a show yet, today is the best day to start! Even if you don’t celebrate July 4th, it’s still the best day since every day is the best day.
I’m not sure who at DC/Warner Bros is responsible for canceling this show, but for the love of The Presence, please bring it back. The world needs more Young Justice!
Introducing the Kids to BTAS and DCAU
I took the plunge and decided that my oldest (11) was old enough to begin watching Batman: The Animated Series, and it has been a wild success. She's not a superhero nerd like her old man, but she's enjoying the series, and as a Star Wars fan, appreciates the heck out of the fact that Mark Hammill is in the series.
And my 6 year old is also enjoying it, admitting that while it was "kinda scary", she still enjoyed it.
Superman and Justice League are in the future, naturally, and I can't wait.
But I want to put a shout-out to all the parents out there; Batman Beyond is obviously for an older audience, and it's definitely a darker, slightly nastier take on Gotham. I don't want to traumatize them unneccesarily (no 6-year-old needs to see Return of the Joker), but I also want to explore the whole story with them.
Did any of you introduce your kids to Batman Beyond at a young age? Did it work, did they not like it, give me your stories, and thank you.
Batman Beyond's Guest Appearance In Superman Adventures #64 (Dec 2001)

Is there anything after the ‘Tomorrowverse’?
I completed the DCAMU & the Tomorrowverse, just finished Crisis on Infinite Earths 3 last night
Is there anything else that’s part of this continuity?
Any other animated stuff I should watch? I really enjoyed it
So...RotJ Joker show up like this for anybody else? No? Just me? Schway.
Pre-ordered this Pop figure months ago, showed up yesterday and I guess my boy is shy. 🫣
Kirby would be proud
Bruce Timm and Paul Dini achieved something that has yet to be equaled on the big screen: a faithful adaptation of the Fourth World. and it shows how these big shots from holywood are out of touch

Why couldn’t John push the wormhole generator to the Sun if his beams are light speed? Did Wally have to go through this?
John and others have said that lantern beams are light speed time and time again. In eclipsed part two, it said that the combined speeds of John and Wally were needed to reach light speed; but I’m wondering why John couldn’t just throw it to the sun himself. Why did Wally need to go through this?
Was Bruce in the wrong to not tell Dick about Babs as Batgirl?
I wonder as this was the catalyst of why Dick left but was Bruce really wrong? As he said, it wasn't his secret to tell and Babs never told him, he just found out
[DC, JLA and JLU] would Thanagar resort to seduction tactitcs?
I am writing a My Hero Academia x Justice League fic where Izuku got Isekai'd and came back with a literal galaxy.
To understand what I am asking about, the general vision of the galaxy itself needs to be given and also why Izuku does not open it to the outside world.
The Midoriyan Reach
The Reach is a galaxy that appeared spontaneously adjacent to the Milky Way, comprising ten thousand self-replicating planets (each one hundred thousand times the size of Earth) arranged into one hundred solar systems of ten planets each. Each planet is encased in a Dyson sphere and possesses two moons. The entire galaxy operates on infinite, infinitely renewable resources—energy readings show no decrease or weakening, indicating the Reach will never face scarcity.
Key Features:
- The Arks: Massive flower-shaped constructs (eight arms surrounding a central crucible) that serve as manufactories, space stations, and military bases. They contain habitable habitats and can strip-mine and self-renew planets in an endless cycle.
- Self-Replication: The solar systems can spontaneously multiply—splitting like living cells (one sun becomes two and ten planets become twenty)—with ships immediately swarming the new systems to build Dyson spheres around them.
- Technology: The Reach possesses faster-than-light travel capable of crossing the galaxy in a single second, a fleet of ships with enough firepower to glass solar systems (the smallest can comfortably carry all the Americas, Russia, and China with room to spare), and a state-of-the-art teleportation system that is "consequence-free instantaneous."
- Security: The entire Reach is shielded against all forms of teleportation (Zeta tubes, Boom tubes, etc.), and nothing enters or leaves without the Reach's knowledge. Probes are detected and neutralized before reaching any planet.
- Peaceful Resolutions: The name given to the recycling facilities where waste—and other "problems"—are broken down to base atoms and rearranged into useful materials.
The governance is hierarchical: planetary courts elect system courts, which elect subsector courts, which elect sector courts, culminating in the Council of Races comprising the High Kings of each species (except the Men of Iron and Goblins, who are direct vassals). The Royal Sector contains the "Ten Thousand Crown Jewels" (the original worlds), with Midoriyan Prime serving as the Throne World.
The Races of the Reach
Elves
Seven-foot-tall beings of "estatesque beauty with curves for days," masters of arcane magic and craftsmanship that "would make gods weep." "They are functionally immortal. Their pregnancies last fifteen months, rarely producing more than one child who takes one hundred years to reach the human equivalent of their early twenties (aging normally for the first twelve years, then slowing drastically). Due to low birth rates, they practice polygamy and are immune to inbreeding. They have hereditary royal families.
Goblins
Three-foot-nothing beings of "shamelessness, high spirits, vulgarity, and curves that defy common sense and physics." They are short-lived, dying of old age at thirty-five. Their pregnancies last only four months, producing up to six babies at once, with mothers ready to conceive again within a week—allowing for up to twenty-four babies per year. They reach maturity in eight months.
They suffer from Goblin Sudden Death Disease (GSDD), where at any moment a goblin may simply drop dead (heart stops, brain ceases). They embrace this mortality, viewing shame and inhibitions as "useless as a wet noodle in a swordfight." They are the main fuel for the recycling facilities and threatened to revolt when Izuku suggested giving their dead proper funeral rites instead of recycling them. They are vassals of everyone else because they cannot be bothered with governance paperwork.
Squats
Stocky, stubborn, sturdy clone-born dwarves standing five feet tall. Culturally, they are divided between Gene Fathers (who operate the crucibles, maintaining genetic vaults and tailoring clone batches chromosome by chromosome) and Rune Mothers (priests who commune with ancestor gods—Grungni, Grimni, and Valaya).
Eighty percent of squats are clone-born (artificial organic life rather than copies), while twenty percent reproduce sexually. They wear tunics with brutalist geometric patterns and have long braided hair (women) or beards reaching past their knees adorned with rings (men). They can be elected as rulers or "made" by the Council of Elders.
Men of Iron
Automatons from the "Golden Age of Technology," ranging from seven to nine feet tall, of sleek metal (bronze and gunmetal). They are beings of technology so advanced it is indistinguishable from magic. They do not eat, do not sleep, and view everything outside their duty directives as a "hobby." They are direct vassals of the king, having refused self-governance multiple times, and serve as the police force alongside Squats in power armor.
Halflings
A new race (first generation, twenty-five years old as a species) was created from interbreeding between elves and goblins. They stand five feet to five feet two with short pointy ears and freckles regardless of skin tone. Men have delicate, feminine frames with heart-shaped faces and wide hips; women are athletic hourglasses.
They age like humans until twenty, then slow down, enjoying a 250-year lifespan without GSDD. Pregnancies last nine months, usually producing twins. They can reproduce with elves or goblins (producing only elf or goblin offspring), which has helped boost the elven population. They are currently vassals of the elves but approaching the threshold to elect their own kings and gain a seat on the Council of Races.
Izuku's Reasoning and Stance on Closed Borders
Izuku maintains an absolute isolationist policy, refusing to open borders for commerce, cultural exchange, migration, or humanitarian aid. His stance is rooted in traumatic experience from his thirty-year quest in the isekai world, where he learned that "paradise attracts parasites the same way power invites challenges."
The Refugee Cycle (The "Six-Month" Problem)
Initially a "bleeding heart," Izuku opened his borders to refugees in the other world. They swore eternal gratitude, but every six months like clockwork, they would revolt and attempt to usurp his crown using the technology and resources he provided. His subjects have "no chill"—without his interference, they would march every refugee "feet first into the atomizers" (Peaceful Resolutions). He spent twenty-five years of his thirty-year quest constantly returning from battle to prevent his people from committing genocide against ungrateful refugees who kept trying to betray him.
The Corruption of Charity
After closing his borders to refugees, Izuku attempted direct humanitarian aid:
- Via Local Governance: He supplied villages with food and medicine, trusting local churches to distribute it. Instead, warlords hoarded the supplies, sold them for gold, and joined the Demon Lord's forces.
- Via Direct Distribution: His people attempted to distribute resources directly. The recipients revolted, outraged that a "foreign power" controlled the means of survival rather than their corrupt local government.
After cutting off all aid and focusing solely on his quest, he completed it in five years without interruption.
Protection Through Exclusion
Izuku keeps borders closed to protect both sides:
- Protecting the Reach: He knows Earth would not send "their best"—they would send "scum, their greedy, their entitled, their criminals, thieves, scammers, murderers, rapists, and pedophiles." "His people" do not house, feed, or rehabilitate scum; they recycle it.
- Protecting Earth: He explicitly states he is protecting Earth's people from his own subjects. Without his moderation, his people would slaughter any problematic immigrants entirely.
He envisions the inevitable scenario: refugees arrive, discover infinite resources still require work to access, and revolt when told they cannot reap harvests they did not sow, forcing him to intervene to limit bloodshed to "only the instigators and ring leaders," followed by UN condemnation and sanctions that mean nothing because the Reach is a closed system.
Diplomatic Reality
Izuku distinguishes between the Justice League (potential friends/allies) and the UN ("parasites," "vultures"). He is willing to sign a non-aggression treaty and build friendships but absolutely refuses any "greater good" arguments about sharing resources. He references his recent treaty with Thanagar—signed after they attempted invasion and faced the threat of being "de-evolved back to when their ancestors were still swimming in the primordial ooze"—as the template for relations: peaceful coexistence through strength, not charity.
Long story short, Izuku is sitting on a treasure trove of infinite wealth, and he is not willing to share it, not out of greed, but out of trauma. He's been burned one too many times, and as the saying goes, once bitten, twice shy.
Basically speaking, the Thanagar government in my fic wants to sink their claws into the Reach, but thanks to the fact the Reach is closed for business and has no different Darkseid forces like they were nothing, they decide to go through another route.
They know Izuku has a friendly relationship with the League, so they want to use Shayera as a key to the reach. Their plan is to have her try and weasel her way into gaining Izuku's trust and convincing him to open the Reach to diplomatic and commercial relations with Thanagar so they can gain a foothold in the Reach.
Or, and that's the part that gets me confused, seduce Izuku to have a Thanagarian heir to the throne as a plan B.
Basically speaking, they want Shayera to either seduce Izuku or be a wingwoman (pun not intended) to help put a Thanagarian as the queen of the Reach because, as far as they know, Izuku does not have a queen.
The plan B is to get a Thanagarian woman as Izuku's queen, and when they have produced heirs, Izuku would suffer an unfortunate hunting accident and tragically pass away, Robert Baratheon style.
With him dead, the crown goes to his heir, meaning a Thanagarian heir would sit on the throne and the Reach would belong to Thanagar.
The thing is, in the animated series, Thanagar uses deception, but I don't know if this level of deception would be believable.
and also, would the League in general respect Izuku's stance on keeping his galaxy closed?
After Jimmy, do you think Virgil and Ritchie would still be friends with Jimmy after the ep?
I wonder as true he brought a gun and Richie got shot and Virgil said he was mad at him for that but he also said he doesn't belong in juvie So what do you say?
So in the DCAU, funny how Clark is closer to Dick/Babs age than Bruces
So at the start of STAS supes is 28 I read and I believe it starts same time as TNBA which would place Dick at 24 and Babs around 23 or so So Clark is closer to their peer as he could have been in school with them
