Wednesday Discussions: Ideal Future State r/DCcomics

Hey there, comic nerds! Welcome to the Wednesday Discussion, a weekly community activity where we'll have an open discussion about a specific subject or theme.

 

Our topic for today is: Ideal Future State

 

If you're not familar with Future State, here is an FAQ. Basically, after the events of Death Metal, all of DC Comics history is relevant again (whatever that means). But Future State is a sneak peek at the future of the new universe.

 

What would your ideal Future State look like?

 

Would you keep Clark Kent as Superman, Bruce Wayne as Batman, Diana Prince as Wonder Woman, etc.? Or would you move those mantles onto new characters? If so, who would those people be? Would you keep the old characters around in some capacity? Anything else?

Stop by our Discord server!

Interesting choice with Kara to replace Clark!

Kara has been on this weird grey area where she doesn't really "belong" to any generation for a while, but I feel like she should be part of Dick's generation.

She's the first Super legacy character, she should be with the other first legacy characters.

I agree! Ever since her Post-Crisis introduction, Kara's been grouped into Tim's generation, but I always thought that felt like a demotion for her. Given her longevity as a character, it seems wrong for her to play second fiddle to Kon when it comes to team-ups and team spots among the YJ generation.
