Man Of Steel: 10 Easter Eggs That Were Secretly Foreshadowing
8. Galaxy Broadcasting Station - Foreshadowing Darkseid
In a truly blink-and-youll-miss-it fashion, Man Of Steel also foreshadowed a major DC Comics villain that could play a central role in the upcoming Justice League movies. In one of the flying scenes, Supes whizzed past a sign reading WGBS, which could well be a nod toward Darkseid, one of the biggest villains in comic book history and essentially DCs equivalent to Thanos. Let me explain. WGBS is a television station in the comic books. Its a subsidiary of the Galaxy Broadcasting System network, which is owned by regular Superman-bothering villain Morgan Edge. At one stage, in the comics, a version of Morgan Edge was a faithful servant of Darkseid and part of his Earthly evildoing team Intergang. Morgan would regularly do Darkseids murderous bidding. Its a bit of a long shot, then, but the fact that WGBS exists in the DCEU suggests that Morgan Edge does to. And Morgans ties to Darkseid who seeks to conquer the universe and eliminate free will are a common occurrence in the comics, so if Darkseid ever does join the DCEU, its likely that everyone will look back at this Easter Egg as the first tease of his arrival.
