What would you like to see in DCAU DTVs?
Me? Tons of Batman and Superman. I don't care what they're about I'll still want them!
A million and one possabilities and I would be more than happy with virtually any! Like Allstar, I just want em...period.
I would love to see the various series continue to get their "turns" at DTV's. JL/U is now deffinately most deserving.
At this point all the series are pretty well merged as is and any furture DTV's could easily be all encompasing? (meaning it may not be Nec. IMO for any DTV to "focus" or be limited to only one franchise?).
However; there are many points of interest I personally would posatively LOVE to see explored.
Specifically, the biggest and most neglected element would have to be Nightwing / Dick Grayson. His "future" and status simply must be given some degree of attention.
I have alwasy really wanted to see an exchange between Terry McGinnis and Dick Grayson.
Personally, I've also always wanted to see the Oracle character/persona be introduced into the DCAU .
For giggles, here is an idea I posted for Customcon:
The Brave and the Bold will launch in a big way with a self-titled two hour premier movie directly tied to a past JLU tale!
Here's how creators describe the premier:
"To launch The Brave and the Bold, we're going "back to the future" (and the past and present) and picking up where the JLU Season Three finale "The Once and Future Thing left off."
When we last saw the time traveling thief David Clinton (aka Chronos), he was imprisoned in a time loop thanks to Batman. Now he's free and understandably none too happy.
Now, no longer content with stealing priceless artifacts from the past, Chronos is out for revenge! Specifically against the two heroes he holds most responsible... Batman and the Green Lantern John Stewart. Chronos puts his plan into action and in doing so, confronts the Batman of his time (Terry McGinnis / Batman Beyond) as well as the Justice League Unlimited (including John Stewart's son War Hawk)! Chronos is more than happy to spill some family blood for starters but when he learns of the "true" Batman's identity (Bruce Wayne) the real game begins and the story takes off. Think "Back to the Future Pt.2" say creators, "Chronos sets his sights on taking out Bruce Wayne in the past and begins a time traveling journey with Terry McGinnis hot on his heels to keep his *future mentor alive". Not an easy task when all the while he must avoid accidentally changing the course of history or even erasing himself from existence!
Fortunately for Terry, the DCAU is chock full of heroes and he's not alone in his quest! Along the way, Terry is joined by a pair of unexpected allies. The first being a mysterious female voice on the other end of a "comlink" who calls herself "The Oracle". The second is a masked face familiar to long time fans... Dick Grayson (aka Nightwing)! But creators warn, "don't expect these two to buddy up to one another. There is some serious tension and immediate sparks between these two"." Plenty of D.C. and animated Batman history is explored, including a delightful segment where we return to "Mask of the Phantasm" and Terry must stop Chronos from getting to a young Bruce Wayne while he's on a date with Andrea Beumont... all without being seen!
Will Batman survive? Heck, will the DCAU survive? We'll all just have to wait and see.
