In the weeks and months leading up to James Gunn‘s DCU announcements, superhero fans were skeptical that not only could the rebooted franchise escape the shadow of the shattered Snyderverse, but also that it could emerge from under the thumb of the all-powerful MCU. With Gunn finally unveiling the full slate for the first wave of the newly furnished DC universe, however, the filmmaker has immediately bested Kevin Feige‘s Marvel Studios in one small yet meaningful way.
Along with announcing 11 new titles coming over the next few years, ranging from movie reboot Superman: Legacy to a Green Lantern buddy-cop TV series called Lanterns, Gunn also confirmed that we should be referring to this opening gambit for the franchise as the DCU Chapter One. While that’s an obvious spin on the MCU’s Phase One through Six categorization system, the DCU is going one better by applying subtitles to its individual phases. In this case, Chapter One is called “Gods & Monsters.”
