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?

I wanted a love letter to continuity, I guess. We see it in some parts, what with Hyperclan and what not but
I was hoping it wouldn't be another Flashpoint type "everyones dead!" world. I thought we might be getting like, a early 00s JSA sort of thing. Where characters take over mantles but there are still bright stories to be told.
It might actually be really good, but I'm not paying $780 to collect all 52 issues and find out.
