We're talked a lot about Woman of Tomorrow, but these are a few more of the comics that are inspiring #DCStudios and the new #DCU in these early days. That doesn't mean we're adapting all these comics, but that the feel, the look, or the tone of them are touchstones for our team.

@jamesgunn I only learned about Alan Moore's Swamp Thing around 2015. It is incredible and one of my favorite comics.

@jamesgunn Really looking forward to the new movies. Glad you’re taking a different approach and utilising some of the best source material. Would have preferred to see Dick Grayson as the first Robin, but I do love Damien 😊👍

@jamesgunn I’m curious how The Authority is going to translate to the big screen. There’s a lot of hard-R violence in those first few years.

@jamesgunn It's a completely different direction than what the MCU is doing. Which is smart. This seems more artsy. I’m hoping to see great cinematic direction and camera work come along with it!

@jamesgunn Some of my faves in there. Alan Moore's Swamp Thing in particular - as weirdly visionary as anything he's done and ever more relevant on an ecopolitical level. Oh, and Batcow by 2020? :)

@jamesgunn I am so excited to see a Superman that is filled with hope and the big sci-fi concepts. It would also be a gift to the fans if we got a Swamp Thing even close to the comics you posted. It is interesting you put up The Authority, I wonder if we are going to see them or if those stories just will inspire others.

@jamesgunn Would be great to see the International League of Batmen show up in the new film, if it's taking notes from Morrison's run. They could be a great HBO Max spin off show.

@jamesgunn With all the All Star Superman talk I do hope that if you decide to work a certain scene into Legacy, you go with this take on it instead. It's similar but I think much more to the core of who Superman is and should be:(CW: suicide references in link)https://renegadecinema.com/10235/superman-saves-suicidal-girl

@jamesgunn The interesting thing is that this movie lineup feels more like a run of comics than an ongoing series of movies & tv. Curious to see how these work separately & together at the end of the day. It'd be cool to see things like the Lanterns just work with DC Detectives, Mystics, and other characters like it's just a regular thing to work with these people. Some mentioned pulling in Scooby and the Gang and, while I'm not sure if something outside of DC like that is possible, having similar cross-overs feels like it's just the way a universe should work.That's what I liked about shows like Young Justice. I can't remember most of the characters (too many unknowns would pop in at once), but DC has tons of big personalities. Single episode characters can easily feel like a main character in their own right when they are around. And they tend to seem like they have more going on than the episode's plot & that the plot is just something they're dealing with that week. Like I remember The Human Target showing up in Arrow and being like "this is neat. I wanna read this guy's adventures." It brings things to life.

@jamesgunn Something I love is that people bought this comics when you annaunced it will be the inspirations for the movies. I think that Movies & Comic book media must be retroactive and complementary. I wish you the best of the lucks to you and your creative team. I also hope that you can share more of your asewome music in this movies. 🤟🤟🤟

@jamesgunn All great books from outstanding creators. I've said elsewhere that a contemporary movie Superman should be a terrifying gestalt of Mr Rodgers, Ted Lasso & Andrew WK. He should also look, at least initially, like the Morrison/Morales "Socialist Springsteen Superman" from their Action Comics run.
