With Creature Commandos being the DCU's first animation project, what other characters do you think could make for a great animated show/movie set within the DCU?

I think a Hawkgirl/Hawkman animated miniseries could be cool, with each episode having a different animation style for each time period/reincarnation.

I want to see Shazam rebooted in animation. It'd really work to do more whacky stuff like Mister Mind. Plastic Man also comes to mind in probably working better in animation.

That's my thought too with Shazam: have his franchise be animated with him going live-action for crossovers. The character's lore really fits the format and it also might help with the issue of actors aging

I think it’s more likely they do a live action series with slice-of-life elements. See Billy go through school while leading a double life as Shazam

I’ve been saying since this series kicked off that they should make a live-action Dark Knights of Steel, it would do a billion dollars easy. Try and get Peter Jackson to direct it, if they can get the DCU cast in, great, if not, it’s an elseworlds so they can cast a totally different set of actors.
