McFarlane DC Multiverse

As others have said, Netflix at its core, is a streaming company. They will by nature be inclined to put everything on a digital platform in some capacity. All so that the algorithm can dictate the next move. Disney wasn’t like that back when they bought Marvel. Maybe they are today. Or at least heading that direction.

And with the advances in AI, I see the algorithm only getting stronger.

I don’t want digital comics. Ever.

But for the same reason Netflix bought Millarworld years ago is the same reason they would be inclined to leave it alone.

They have their own in-house IP generation with first right of refusal.

DC already let go of its New York office.

I’d be more worried about Trump administration making it hard for them to not b forced to sell off DC
 
I’ve decided to scrupulously avoid politics and social issues on this forum. I will not engage. Period. I just don’t think it’s necessary to fight the culture war on all fronts all the time.

To me, it’s either or. Paramount could close down DC Comics just as easily as Netflix. And that, again, is my main concern. The media stuff will find a home. Our weekly fix of four color glory is in serious jeopardy. And I don’t care which multi billion dollar media conglomerate buys it. I’m just glad the Saudis are out.

I'm going to propose something:

We all wait and see.

At this point, getting ourselves worked up in conjecture will benefit no one. Let us not forget that there are still shareholder and regulatory approvals to go through yet. This may not even happen. And if it does, and comics are killed, we cross that bridge when we get there.

But I don't think we will get there, I really don't. There isn't anything to worry about until there's something to worry about.

Also, yes...that Saudi comment was a political statement all in and of itself. Lol

Shaming hypocrisy and disingenuousness is important.

That said, here’s something to converse about re: Netflix, WB and comics:
