Warren White
The Riddler
Two Face
Scarecrow
Poison Ivy
Aaron Cash
Doodlebug
Humpty Dumpty
Magpie
Anne Carver
Jeremiah Arkham
It takes inspiration from other Serious House on Serious Earth and the Arkham Asylum Game
Daily Planet: Clark Kent Chronicles
Bruce and Clark the Adventures of Batman and Superman

Sandman Mystery Theatre.
Can we get Dean Cain back for Clark?
House of mystery, Baron Von Winter helps random hero's some their problems.
An animated Justice League series revolving around the original seven members and some of their most famous stories and arcs.
As mentioned, the characters consist of the original founding members of the team. Superman, the invincible man of tomorrow, Batman, the world's greatest detective, Wonder Woman, warrior princess of the amazons, the Flash, the fastest man alive, Aquaman, king of Atlantis and the strongest natural organism on earth, Green Lantern, the man without fear and Martian Manhunter, the last hero of Mars.
Series begins with seven episodes focusing on the solo everyday adventures of each hero, before having a two-episode storyline where the seven unite to stop Brainiac from stealing various cities from around the world.
From then on we follow the team as they found the Watchtower and Hall of Justice, battle interstellar threats like Mongul and Starro, and team up with other superhero teams like the Teen Titans, Doom Patrol and Justice Society. Along the way they induct new members into the League, like Green Arrow, Black Canary, Captain Marvel, Red Tornado, Plastic Man, and so forth.
Tldr; Semi-serialized Justice League animated series because god-forbid, DC needs a break now more than ever with these guys.
We're hoping to cast someone a bit younger for Clark for the many shirtless scenes that will be required for the female audience
Police procedural based on Metropolis Special Crimes Unit starring Maggie Sawyer and Dan Turpin with special appearances by various Cadmus and STAR Labs characters. Throw in some Intergang shenanigans too.

Because Based Disney just revealed their amazing streaming service and the many awesome titles coming to it and like always DC is desperate and looking for anything they can get like the pathetic losers they are and always will be until they're shut down in September
Make Shared Universe Military Series undecided if they would be better as a faux Wartime Documentary (I.e. history channel) or better as an actual series
Sgt. Rock - just following the exploits of Easy Company
Enemy Ace- was the most noble of nobles the greatest pilot in WW1
Blackhawks- Secret group of military from around the world, would be a great black ops series
Weird War Tales- shorter one off stories where you can do stuff like G.I. Robot and others would probably be best as a faux documentary of Secret Goveent Weapons used by the military
Checkmate- would make a great espionage style series
The Losers- a rag tag group of expert field operatives that go on suicide missions
Unknown Soldier- a man left for dead becomes a one man army
War That Time Forgot- featuring Martin Jordan as the POV character and featuring some of the characters that appeared in the other series it would be about everyone trying to escape this dinosaur infested land
Doom Patrol in the Street
First Season would be about Silver Age Doom Patrol mixed with modern cruelity, the main villain would be the Brotherhood of Evil
Second Season would be about Morrison's Doom Patrol, the main villain would be the Brotherhood of Dada
The Third Season would be about Doom Patrol's end by the hand of Gentry, slave
That’s literally the pitch they had for a Batman/Superman cartoon before it was rejected, and they went with Beware the Batman.
Bump
An Elsworlds Tale- an anthology series transplanting characters we all know into different settings and times.
Disney has and always made mediocre shit, fuck you
Fuck Martian Manhunter. He sucks.
The Continuing Adventures of Brother Power the Geek
Guest appearances by Odd Man and the Creature Commandos
Vertigo Anthology, a bunch of different shorts based on different arcs in Vertigo comics.
anything is fine so long as its a cartoon and not a mind numblingly boring live action teen drama like you're imagining
I would adapt sandman but not the main stories. The spin off shit.
First episode or two would be the Bast mini.
The DC shorts were quite good.
Codename: Knockout
titties
A more grounded/shortened Parallax arc could actually be pretty cool. Kyle showing up out of the blue and the league/Guy and John having to fight alongside him could create some pretty interesting interactions. And if Hal is brought down pretty fast he could have an interesting guilt/sort of redemption arc.
L.A.W or whatever they wanna call the Charleston characters. Make it some basic Yakuza VS Superhero stuff. Their power sets are pretty basic effects wise.
Also I'd love to see a show based around Jonah Hex. Not sure if the Legends actor would be actually competent as a lead, but it's not like he can't be recast. Just needs to have the make up done right for him to recognizable
An animated space show, either following one of the corps or L.E.G.I.O.N. (depending on how much leeway WB would allow when it comes to ratings, because the rape would probably put it up there), that's a decent mix of mid-level crime/justice fighting, more personal stories and high-level threats.
A series of cartoon shorts about the daily lives of the Rogues. Scenarios would be everything from trying to pull off a big heist to arguing about if someone is cheating at Thursday night poker. The show would be light and funny, examining what the daily lives of a group of non-deranged supervillains could look like. When the Flash does appear to inevitably foil their plans, it's only as a streak of light.
A Booster Gold/Blue Beetle buddy cop sitcom but with superheroes.
I was thinking that after Hal got free from Parallax he's super depressed and needs to redeem himself. So the league sends him back to Earth where goes on a mini-arc with Green Arrow travelling across America for a couple episodes. If you need a green lantern on the main team, you could have any of the other three fill his place too before he gets back.
Animated adaptation of Neil Gaimen's the Sandman as true to source as The Maxx animated series was for as many issues as Sam Kieth painted those first issues. After that art team adapts style from subsequent issues to more respect the original style so that the animated series stays faithful to the layout and design that the rest of the Sandman artists put down with a more Sam Kieth-esque style continuing through in the animated series. Voice cast all 90s actors such as Wynona Ryder as Death and or Tori Amos for Delirium.
Prez - A young teenager was inadvertently elected president, and the series follows the crazy world of politics that he must now traverse. If you could get some great political satirist writers it could very well be on the level of Veep or Park & Rec
> he
Pick the good version of Prez maybe
Cartoon based on old cannon DC sidekicks a la but not calling themselves the Teen Titans.
Similar to TTG but something I'd actually want to watch, so not shit and a better art style.
Animated adaptation of the entire comic run of Captain Marvel, including issues where the Marvel family was still owned by Marvel.
Series directed by Bruce Timm where Batman rapes the Joker
Both Prez and Beth are great characters but I just think Prez would work better
Arak series in the style of Xena produced by Sam Raimi
Captain Marvel cartoon in Fleischer style
Vzno
Animated series about Dr. Light raping every single female DC character.

Phantom Stranger
Dean Cain is too old and dad fat now.
Grant Morrison's Batepic
I would love a joker's asylum adaption, so people can cry with Waylon story and have some simpathy for him
Deadman. Boston Brand is a murdered man brought back by the goddess Rama Kushna, tasked to balance the scales between good and evil. To achieve his task on Earth, Boston has been granted the power to possess bodies of other people, so it's like Quantum Leap, only with a ghost.
In order to do his job effectively, Boston sets up a phoney private detective firm, where the gimmick is that he's the absentee detective who's never around when you try to see him, that is always handling cases through intermediaries and phone calls, etc. Sort of like reverse Charlie's Angels.
Aiding Boston on his mission is Ms. Xanadu, a third rate medium with a mysterious past, operating in the same building as Boston's P.I. agency, and the only person able to see Boston in his ghost form, which leads her to become his proxy and confidante who helps him out on cases
The format is procedural in nature, each week a new case comes along that Boston has to solve, with the central hook being that the cases are increasingly hinted to in fact be supernatural in nature. As the show goes along more DC magic figures and concepts would be introduced.
The main overarching storyline is Boston trying to solve his own murder. When Boston was alive, he was a daredevil performance artist, using the Deadman moniker and costume to promote his insane death defying stunts, until one day his latest and most dangerous stunt was sabotaged and he was clearly murdered. As the series progresses, Boston starts finding mysterious clues that built up to the end of the first season where he finally finds the mysterious hook handed man who supposedly killed him, only for the guy to die before he can explain his motive. Season two and onwards would then start to form a picture that implies that Boston's murder was perhaps the work of a deranged death cult worshipping Rama Kushna, and it's ultimately inferred that maybe the intention was always to kill and manipulate him into becoming Rama's agent in the real world.
Combine these and also add in Spectre, Mxysptlk, Sandman and the D kids, and Azrael. But don't make it JLD. No Constantine. No Swamp Thing. Just a superhero version of American Gods with Boston Brand as Shadow.
I'd like a Live Action thing. The superheroes get old and the New Ones take over. I can't decide if it would be Batman Beyond that takes place on street level with same recognizable villains. Or a Kamen Rideresque Blue Beetle that takes place on the streets and then Ted goes through something that makes him realise he's over his head during a trip to the other universes with Booster Gold so he goes looking for a protege and finds one in Jaime Reyez, who then fights crime in other Universes and Space.
Awful.
On the other hand Tom Welling looks good on Lucifer.
Rood my dood
Change his name back to Brother Power the Freak and you're onto something
The actors who played Reverse Flash, Malcolm Merlin and Damian Dahrk had so much fun together as the Legion of Doom they joked they love to do a LOD sitcom. I'd do that. Those guys are comic gold.
>wanting discount LoD
They can't even keep up their villains. At most the rougues appear twice and then get reformed. Supergirl can't even get handmedown baddies. Parasite notwithstanding. Arrow only has Green Arrow 2.0s. And the Legends of Tommorow are recycling the guys from the other shows.
Until they bring back Pied Piper, Grodd, Ra's al ghul, and Suicide Squad and give these guys a proper send off, F*ck the CW.
>F*ck
So you want Legion+OZ? Why not watch Legion+OZ? But these two
Have a point. I'd like to see a Villain starred show. I want it to be like the 'Almost Got Him' episode. Or that Flash Day episode. An anthology where each DC villain describes their interactions with their (or someone else's) hero. And it's done in the style of the opening of Incredibles with each villain doing an interview. But the more dangerous the villain, the more security he needs.
