Let me start off by stating this, EVERYTHING in this upcoming list I have taken FROM THIS SITE (CBM.Com), rumored, confirmed or anything else is has been taken from here, that is the source for all of this material, it has been posted by a power user before so if you want to dispute the legitamacy of it go ask them.

Many dumb, ignorant and all around unedcuated fans claim DC has to "Catch up" to Marvel, to this I point and laugh , why? is it because I am a jerk? well yeah, but that is not the point, it's because it's STUPID. The aforementioned LIST will show us just how AHEAD DC is of MARVEL overall.

Let's get started with Movies...


9 DC MOVIES CONFIRMED FROM 2016-2020 this brings the DC Shared cinematic universe to a total of 10 films so far in 6-7 years. 

-Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice (Confirmed for 2016)

-Shazam Movie (Confirmed by Black Adam Casting & multiple Updates by Studio & The Rock)

-Wonder Woman Movie (Rumored based on Gal's 3 picture deal with WB)

-Suicide Squad Movie (Rumored, Director said to be confirmed)

-Sandman Movie (In Development by Gaiman & Joseph Gordon-Levitt)

Now let's go with TV...



The DC TV Universes (yes in plural because they are multiple) have made HISTORY, If I am not mistaken The Flash show will be the first ever live action comic book based show spin off picked up for a full season, that's great news for any comic fan, but now onto the future and let's explore the 10 + Universes we will get.

-Arrow (Ongoing, Confirmed to have a deal for 6 seasons with CW)

-The Flash (Upcoming, Confirmed for 1 full season CW)

-Gotham (Upcoming, Confirmed for 1 full season FOX & Netflix deal)

-Constantine (Upcoming, Confirmed for 1 full season NBC)

-Hourman (In Development by CW)

-Teen Titans Live Action Series ( In Development by TNT)

-Supergirl (In Development by CBS)

-Lucifer (In Development by Fox)

-DMZ ( In Development by Syfy)

-Preacher ( In Development by AMC)

-Scalped ( In Development by WGN America)

-Suicide Squad Series/Mini Series (Rumored)

-Beware The Batman (Ongoing, Animated)

-Teen Titan Go (Ongoing, Animated)

Now Onto The Games...



With Multiple long On going franchises DC is taking the gaming world by storm so let's take  a look at some of the upcoming games that will light up consoles soon enough with Bricks, Arkham & Fighting games for everyone.

-LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham (Confirmed)

-Batman Arkham Knight (Confirmed)

-Batman Arkham Origins Sequel (Confirmed to be made as part of franchise, rumored is direct sequel)

-Suicide Squad (Rumored, could be Arkham Origins Sequel* as tease in the end* or stand alone SS Game)

-Injustice 2 (Confirmed)

Other Projects...



From animated movies to the Online deal to the Youtube projects this is the last part of the DC pipeline

-Justice League: Throne of Atlantis (Confirmed, Animated Movie)

-Justice Legue: Gods & Monsters (Confirmed, Animated Movie)

-Justice League: Gods & Monsters Chronicles ( Confirmed, 3 Part Animated Series along with the Movie)

-Batman Vs Robin (Confirmed Animated Movie)

-DC Nation shorts/DC Nation All Access (Ongoing Youtube series)


Well, there we have it the complete so far confirmed (mostly) and rumored upcoming DC Projects, DC CLEARLY has nothing to catch up to with Movies, Games, TV, Videos, Shorts & more already domianted they truly have conquered the ENTRETAINMENT aspect of comics, part 2 of this series will explore each one the movies a little more in depth and take a look at more of the DC World, until next time, take care and enjoy...also be thankful you have...

Wow, this is your best article so far in terms of presentation (aside from the unnecessary memes).
DCGuy
DCGuy - 9/21/2014, 9:08 AM
Thanks @MrBlackJack (the Memes had to be added because I felt the article lacked pics and I wasnt able to make the headings I wanted so I took what I found on my pc.

Possible flame bait aside, this is actually a good article @DCGuy. DC isn't as far behind as some people like to think and they are way ahead in other forms of media. Comics are about equal though, although I prefer DC stories/characters.

Still waiting for a great Marvel video game.

@TamponTunnel

It's not a troll article, although it's clearly meant to stir up controversy. An editorial is meant to spark debate. (It's one person's opinion.)

lol @tamp (sorry, i refuse to type out that name)
relax the only trolly stuff are two memes, not the content of the article. the article itself is actually a RESPONSE to trolls from the "other team" that put down DC efforts and progress. is that you? is that why it bothers you so?

and for the record i think LOSH is a terrible idea that only popped up to bite off some of GOTG's success. DC has plenty of good stuff in the works but that one has bomb written all over it.

AlternateNo4 - 9/21/2014, 9:48 AM
Nice article though @DCGuy it's actually nice to have a list of these projects to help me keep track. Good work!

@AlternateNo4

Yeah, he trolls DC articles all day. He's doing it on this one too. I agree that LOS is pointless atm. Focus on core characters first.

"At least our directors don't quit." I lol'd so hard. On a serious note, I'm loving these multiple universe but I think Supergirl should connect to MoS and Lucifer should connect to Sandman.

Marvel.... and DC live together in perfect harmony
Side by side in 3d and on my Tv, oh Lord, why don't we?

@TheDudeRusty

Supergirl absolutely should be a part of the film universe. Why should they ignore the perfect setup she could have from the scout ship in Man of Steel?

@DCGuy

Where did you get Hourman info from? Did I miss an article.....cool if if happens but would serve better as a secondary character in Constantine or Flash.
DrKinsolving
DrKinsolving - 9/21/2014, 10:58 AM
@DCGuy

I thought "Beware The Batman" was cancelled, are they making new episodes??

I liekd it, it was a different interpretation but I thought it kept the essence of Batman.... It would be cool to have the Joker show up in a 2nd season
DCGuy
DCGuy - 9/21/2014, 11:13 AM
@DrKinsolving it's ongoing, not sure if cancelled but it still airing and no announcement on who takes it's place, maybe dvd sales help it? not sure on the ratings

@Jollem I knew too!!! we are so smart, but this is for the people who keep saying DC has to catch up & up play the movies as if they are the only way to do things. DC have been doing a different approach that has gone better than movies, not saying they get the same audience but if they dont get u with a series they get u with a movie if not then with a game if not then some other way they have all the bases covered

DC's plan has been to have a presence on every platform of entertainment they can find.

@DrKinsolving,

Beware The Batman has no new eps being made, but is finishing out its run of unaired episodes on CN.

Battabing - 9/21/2014, 11:22 AM
Basically, DC is ruling the roost when it comes to TV, video games, and animated offerings. The only area they're behind is cinematic movies, but it'll only take BvS being great to even up that score.

Thanks, that's what I thought....

LOL it got removed from main! well at least I got some exposure and a few seconds to shine! thanks again everyone!

I don't see why people call it a "troll article".. besides the memes is just a list with all things thet were already mentioned and rumored in other aticles collected in one..

It would have been cool having the release date of the confirmed ones though, i always forget when the animated movies are released..
Darth258
Darth258 - 9/21/2014, 11:26 AM
At first i thouhgt "The blacklist" was the list of characters the TV series weren't allowded to use or mention..

Wow, that is a lot of not-yet-made entertainment. DC at least talks a good game.

It's amusing to me that Marvel and DC basically flipped on movies versus television. All of DC comic films have to come out of WB studios which limits the amount released, where as Marvel characters are released by Disney, Sony, Fox, Universal... Yet when it comes to television, all Marvel shows come out on Disney-owned ABC, whereas DC shows are being done on the CW, Fox, NBC, CBS...

Darth258 - 9/21/2014, 11:35 AM
@Jollem

That would be awesome
Chewtoy
Chewtoy - 9/21/2014, 11:37 AM
@Battabing: in all honesty, I think it will take DC having a success with a non-Batman or Superman film property before most really give them credit for "catching up" to Marvel. It wasn't until the Avengers did record business for a comic book film, Cap and Thor brought in 600m with their sequels and Guardians of the Galaxy launched huge despite the obscure characters that people started thinking that the Marvel brand was a powerhouse, and that it wasn't just Robert Downey Jr. and Iron Man propping everything up.

Once DC puts out a film without Batman or Superman and does well with it, then people will give the DC universe some credit.

@Chewtowy,

Nope, it'll be BvS. Projects like Shazam, Suicide Squad, and Sandman will be gravy.
