A similar premise to Marvels What If... ? series but with a more hard-edged and serious tone, Elsewords would allow stories from a DC multiverse of possibilities to be told. From setting Batman in Victorian Ripper era in Gotham By Gaslight or Superman: Red Son, which sees baby Kal-el land in communist Russia then change the course of 20th century history beyond recognition. Elseworlds such as these would perhaps have to be done as a single TV series arc or even cinematically to justifiably realise on screen. However the existing tales from the comics wouldnt necessarily need to be told and an Elseworlds series could take the form of a kind of Twilight Zone anthology show, where each episode focusses on an alternative version of a DC character. It could be as bizarre as a JLA episode about a group of non-superpowered people called Clark, Bruce, Diana, Barry and Hal whose character traits allude to their superheroic versions. Or an episode set in a Game Of Thrones-esque fantasy world where there is a knight who rides at dark, a boy who can run as fast as a thousand horses, a warrior maiden named Diana, the keeper of the Emerald Lantern and a Titan-like God on Earth named Kal. Comic fans are always complaining about changes to character details in adaptations but Elseworlds would allow for changes to be made in a way that intrigues and genuinely services the story.
