10 Ways DCEU's New Multiverse Could Outshine The MCU

9. A Rich History To Play Off

The Flash Batman

The Marvel Cinematic Universe may have delivered far more movies than the DCEU, but Warner Bros. history of adapting DC Comics properties stretches back further and is arguably more iconic. If bringing back familiar faces from the past becomes the norm, the door is suddenly open to Christopher Nolan telling one more Batman story of Ryan Reynolds reprising his role as Green Lantern.

Making the DCEU a revolving door of cameos wouldn't be a smart move, but tapping into its past will lead to a new way of telling stories, whether that means making Watchmen part of this shared world's history or even combining Henry Cavill's Superman with Christopher Reeve's for a whole new take.

If The Flash travelling back in time is a) creating a new DCEU and b) introducing a Multiverse, Warner Bros. can do pretty much anything and everything, combining franchises, overhauling characters, and bringing back what fans love without having to worry about any overly confusing continuity issues.
