- There have been discussions over the years about which iterations of the DC Universe are the most faithful and impactful to the DC Comics brand as a whole. Some of the more notable versions include the DCEU/Snyderverse with Henry Cavill's Superman and the upcoming DCU by James Gunn, starting with 'Superman Legacy.' The DCAMU or DC Animated Movie Universe, featuring titles like 'Son of Batman' and 'Justice League Dark: Apokolips War,' showcased the Justice League Dark, Nightwing, and the Teen Titans. The rebooted Tomorrowverse Animated Universe includes Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman, along with 'Young Justice' and the 'Injustice' Universe. The CW Arrowverse, featuring 'The Flash' and 'Superman and Lois,' is also noteworthy. More notably, the DCAU, which comprises 'Batman: The Animated Series' and 'Justice League Unlimited,' features characters that will make appearances in 'Superman Legacy,' such as Lex Luthor, Hawkgirl, Mr. Terrific, and Green Lantern.

The longer a universe goes on, the worse it gets. There’s only one exception, the Timmverse DCAU
Best dcamu movie was apocalypse war
Ehh even w that one past the tl of JLU it gets funky and the only good aspect is Beyond, everything else including the bat family is pretty sad and dower including Bruce getting Barbara pregnant
it doesn't have to be that way. Good writing and thought-out plans can easily make a cinematic universe last possible decades. lots of mangas prove that(DBZ, One piece, Naruto). it just that a lot of dc cinematic universes don't have one or another or both.
@@Riqo2SuaveThe Batgirl pregnancy is from a questionable canon comic.
But even that one got funky with the Batman Harley Quinn movie (which should’ve just been a different art style & canon altogether)
altho the dcau is by far the best brought to screen so far, the origonal justice league and justice league unlimited animated series (wich is also connected to batman the animated series and batman beyond) will always hold a special place in my heart
Nostalgia
JLU is arguably better than the DCEU
@@Vindog962by now the DCEU can be considered nostalgic. Do you have a bias towards BvS, for example, because you liked it as a kid?
@@FrancisCastiglione why bvs I didn’t watch the ultimate edition until a few months ago besides I’m not that old so I don’t have nostalgia
@@FrancisCastiglioneIt really is it’s 11 years old now😭
It’s quite simple really, the best dc universe is the lego dc universe
I grew up on young justice and a bit of teen titans. But looking at what people praise about the DCAU of interactions and scenes, I can tell its something else. Compare to the ones i watched, that some are cancelled and leaving what we got is just unsatisfying. and other animated movie universe is hit or miss, especially the new movies. I haven't watch most of them but I know its not going to blow me away. DCAU still stands out as the best one from DC media.
Funnily enough, Young Justice and Teen Titans are good because they share common dna with the DCAU as a lot of the creatives for the DCAU brought in a lot of their talents for both series.
@@VunderGuyexcept young justice is better because it builds on those themes and gets a tv-14 rating
The Timmverse is not only peak DC entertainment but it is also the greatest piece of superhero media that will ever exist across the board
There has not been a televised/cinematic universe that has reached the same level of consistent high quality storytelling nor the immense respect for the source material it is based off of
I agree with what you're saying.The only other Superhero cinematic universe that comes close to the Timmverse is the MCU but I like the Timmverse more than the MCU so I agree with everything you're saying
DCAU?
While there were definitely some good/great DCEU projects (like THE Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman, ZSJL, Shazam, Blue Beetle), I completely get it being at the bottom here. It felt so disconnected that it I could’ve been convinced that they take place in different continuities. So excited for James Gunn’s DCU, he’s consistently proven himself as a high quality comic book storyteller.
Where the lego universe tho🤨
Ain't no way I forgot 😔
It’s to good
@@MEnterprises01It deserves it's own tier
@@MEnterprises01also same for the Arkham verse
@@Super.AE17Arkham verse Justice League gotta be the worse version of Justice League. Although the Arkham games were great, the Justice League presented in Suicide Squad is just stupid. They are all so overpowered until some mainiacs from an Asylum beats them lmao.
love how the only reason we got the arrowverse was because smallville wanted a batman but couldn't use him so they made green arrow their batman and they wanted a 2nd show with him and the actor said no so they just rebooted it to have batman green arrow show with Stephen amell
Ik smallville was a superman show but I feel like it deserves a shoutout cos it literally paved the way for arrow
Yeah it deserves recognition for that. But doesn’t mean it was a good show or universe.
Honestly, DC Universe Online is a pretty good universe to consider. But it’s still unknown whether or not DC really acknowledges it with it being it’s own fictional Earth. Also because it has a good blend of every continuity. If not, most of it.
So for now, for me, it’s at least my top 3.
I have a huge young spot for Young Justice because the introduced my new favorite villian, Klarion the witch boy. He is tied at number 1 with Harley Quinn!!
Was not a fan of the DCAMU, at least some stuff, but how they adapted Superboy was realistically the closest we'll get to the comics version of Conner. The leather jacket, the goofy 90s attitude. It's so bizarre that, while the YJ version of Conner is cool and well thought out and fleshed out, he's just kinda.. not even the same character. He's basically just a brooding edgelord that eventually becomes less angry and mad at daddy.
great ranking man
Batman Hush in the DCAMU is the only real Batman movie in that universe, the rest are Damian Wayne movies, Batman vs Robin is close to being a Batman movie, but it's clear that they didn't care as much compared to Damian. Justice League vs Teen Titans is just another Damian movie with hints of Raven, even though Damian has had enough screentime. I honestly wished they made another Titans movie in the DCAMU for Jaime, because they really did him dirty. It could've been interesting to see the Reach, but they feel like long-term antagonists.
When it comes to the best DC universe for me my favorites are young justice and the DCAU for both of those were my late childhood/preteen years and those two shows lowkey put me on to characters in dc I never even heard nor knew ecen existed before but hopefully with the new DCU/the gunnverse theres more of a connectivity wit its projects and that theres a purpose in being invested in it and its characters
I would switch the places with the CW and the TomorrowVerse, just cuz the CW actually had a consistent run of crossovers leading to Crisis.
Young Justice is probably the best for overall characterisation. Wish there were films and more in the same universe.
For me my favorite DC Universe rankings are this 1. The DCAU DC Animated Universe , 2. The DCTV Arrowverse , 3. The DC Universe Original Animated Films Universe , 4. The DC Animated Universe Tomorrowverse Films , 5. Young Justice , 6. The DCEU DC Extened Universe Films and 7. Injusrice Universe. For me The DCAU and The Arrowverse will always be my favorite DC Universes sure not all the shows in the Arrowverse did worked and the many flaws and issues creped up later on down the line the shows will always hold a special place in my heart along with Smallville DCTV and The Arrowverse re ignited my interest in DC Comics live action. The DCAU will always be special from Batman TAS to Justice League Unlimited where all ways Top Tier quality animation and the story and characters very compelling. Thanks for this video bud and keep up the great work !!!
I always liked how Young Justice would incorporate tie-in elements like comics, video games, and even an audio play into its canon. They reference or build on to each other in a nice way. Usually that tie-in media is a throw-away.
I hope DCU takes notes from the DCAU (90s/00s) as well as Young Justice universe. And then bits from the other animated universe (DCAMU?)
James Gunn said he was taking inspiration from the DCAU and Young Justice a few months ago.

I haven't seen Young Justice so I can't speak on it.
DCAU ALL THE WAY
Yo what about smallville? The story telling and universe building in that show is amazing!
Damn no Batman Brave and the Bold mention.
Or The Batman tv show and lego and also Suicide Squad ktjl
Shazam is awesome
Teen Titans 2003 universe: am I joke to you?
That's a Titan's universe that only focuses on the Titans not the DC larger cast.
On gawd i NEED the DCU to be the live action version of the DCAU 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
Batman brave and the bold was a good universe it was really fun (I’m only bringing it up because you said young justice)
Didn't Young Justice have 2 series and specials or am I tripping
@@__Soya__ I’m pretty sure it’s a stand alone series, but the artist for the show made a lot of things for dc, like the art in the dcamu and a lot stand-alone movies like under the red hood, crisis on two earths and many more.
@@JohnDoe-qy5eu Ya your right the only thing in the Young Justice universe is The Shows, The game, and some comics.
I said this before and I’ll say it again green lantern should’ve been a member of the justice league maybe they add him and Martian man hunter this new universe.
You forgot Brave and the bold. Yeah there is no crossover but it was a universe in its own with so many heroes
Counts for me because its not centered on one character/city
@@sepp4815 id rank it between injustice and young justice,nice diversity in characters but nothing big
Havent watched video yet but DCAMU is the best
SECOND BEST AFTER THE DCAU
13:16 it’s sad they also cancelled a new 52 death in the family movie
I'll Take The Arrowverse Over The DCEU Any day my only gripe was Batwoman why The CW Greenlit their equivalent of Allen Gregory on Fox Is Beyond me
14:44 I really wished he had the same voice as dio
1. Timverse
That’s one thing nobody can disagree with
12:42 But close to the new 52. I think Jason and Tim were off screen
Tbh I’m almost certain Wally was gonna come back in season 5 since they introduced sanctuary at the end of 4 especially them diving into mental health I think they just were trynna bait and bait us into thinking Wally wasn’t coming back and then smack us with it in season 5 when we least expect it vs him returning immediately a season or two later
Funny thing about young justice is that it had a video game that was canon to the show. I remember watching the show and it mentioned a part that was shown in the game. The game was alright. Could’ve been better. As for arrowverse, I agree that it went downhill later on and I wish they introduced Batman since I think there was a concept art of Batman in the Arrowverse but I’m not sure how accurate that is.
10:57 I should’ve had a series adapting the comics of the movie comes out later and adapts the game
17:46 FAX
DCAU is literally perfection minus 1 thing and everyone knows
bro really put injustice in tha thumbnail 😭🙏
I'm biased, but the DCAU is my favorite DC universe. Growing up that universe defined most of the characters for me. I rewatch the shows a lot and I will always love them.
I love Young Justice.
I like most of the DCAMU as well.
I still prefer a lot of earlier seasons of the Arrowverse and agree with the decline in quality.
I've enjoyed the Tomorrowvese so far for the most part.
I sadly dislike more DCEU movies than I like.
I dunno why ppl keep saying Shazam is a minor character. His popularity rival superman back in the day.
I was so confused when he called Shazam c tier.
Yeah in the 50s lol. Not so much in the last 70 years.
@@gigagod3384 Nah he's kept up his popularity
In what way? His comics are pretty niche and aren’t very well known and his outside comic appearances are poorly received( Shazam movies) or he only has a bit part( Justice league unlimited and Young Justice).
@@__Soya__he definitely not and that why his movies fail
8:17 I wish it got so,e animated movies
Technically the tomorrowverse is the DCAMU after it gets rebooted. So like would you consider them the same 🤔
Green lantern the animated series is part of the same universe as young justice. Also it feels kind of weird to have teen Titans excluded from the list
They're not the same Earth.
Teen Titans doesn't focus on the wider DC universe. It's a Titans only show.
Great list but where was the superfriends universe??? Lol
Where’d you think the upcoming DCGU (James Gunn’s movies) is gonna rank?
I want to hear as many opinons as I can btw not just him
Hopefully number one, but just looking at the line up the highest it can probably reach is 2 or 3
I get the controversy with Young Justice’s last 2 seasons, but I actually didn’t mind them. They’re definitely differently paced, but by the end of each season it all came together for me. Season 4 especially surprised me, and each main member getting a 4-5 episode arc that eventually tied into the others was unique (Zatanna and Dr. Fate’s storyline was super cool)
Arkhamverse pre SSKTJLA 🗿
One lowish quality game doesn't knock it down🗣🔥
@@__Soya__ It's not low quality at all. Gameplay's fun, great graphics. It's what they do with our heroes. Rocksteady is dead.
@@hahahahaehhehehehehe The game is definitely buggy. They've had to patch it several times after release. I do enjoy the gameplay personally though ngl.
Shout out to the batman: the brave and the bold universe, the lego dc videogame universe and the superfriends universe
I would swap Tomorrow verse and Young Justice with places. Only Great thing about Young Justice was season 1 tbh. Season 3 was dissapointing
All the seasons where great so definitely not only good tomorrow verse movie was crisis part 1
Really wanted this video but minus the spoilers I was looking for what to watch and bro spoiled mad deaths
I wonder what’s the best Batman series or marvel universe series
As long as Wally West gets an invite, all will be well.
Look i def agree with timverse being number 1 but where daheck is the arkhamverse it did technically have a movie
He mentioned it at the beginning and his reason for not including it was stupid.
@@__Soya__ Oof yeah that bit flushed outta my head lol. Your right it is a terrible reason though
Superman and Batman are my favorite superheroes who’s yours ?
MINE TOO
Savitar looks like a cheap PS3 movie game boss villain, what the fuck is that? What was the point of Flash WW2? Why not just a Flash movie.
You really complaining about a low budget show cgi?🤦🏾♂️
DCAU. Without out question.
As fun as the games are, the Injustice series has the single worst version of the Trinity too IMO. Injustice's story has more continuity and character problems than YJ by a landslide if u look into it. For me, it'd go DCAU, YJ, DCAMU, Tomorrowverse, Injustice, then the DCEU. I can appreciate that the Tomorrowverse at least got Batman and Superman right, which is a far cry from anything I've seen with the Injustice series. The DCAMU and YJ are kinda tied for me, I like both but they both have their own problems(they both lack focus and consistant quality). Batman Hush, Justice League Throne of Atlantis and even Batman Bad Blood were worthless entries that would have been better served for a Flash and Green Lantern film. So I put Young Justice higher than the DCAMU for having more variety in who it gives the spotlight to, the universe feels a lot bigger than any universe where Batman has way too much screen time.
9:32😂
I say Young Justice
I think specifically seasons 1-3 of Young Justice are the best overall representation of the universe and the justice league. Especially the interconnectedness of all of the characters and their relationships. However, the quality of the show isn't as good as some of the others. I was able to get over a lot of the season 3 stuff with halo brione and forager because the overarching storyline it followed felt good enough for me but I can absolutely agree that there was a major wasted opportunity there.
Batman is the main character, doesn't matter witch earth it is.
Eh supes and him are the two pillars supes role is too important and he's usually out front fighting the biggest bass. He's also the spirit of DC and heroes in general
I'm not a big fan of DC New 52 universe, but there are projects in it that I really like, for example, the Death of Superman, the Reign of Supermen, as well as the Apocalypse War. And I'll say this, of all the Batman movies, I liked Batman's Son, as well as Batman Hush. Yes, yes, I'm one of those people who liked the personality twist, as well as Bruce and Selina's relationship, which is the focus of the whole movie here. But I didn't really like the Titans movies. Now about the universe of the Young Justice League. I ABSOLUTELY disagree that seasons 3 and 4 were worse than season 2. It may be worse than the first, but not the second. I don't understand the claim, what's the problem with focusing on new characters like Halo, Forager and Brion? Brion is generally one of the best characters for the entire season 3, and no one removes the old characters from us, they just already appear as teachers in season 3. And in season 4, in general, each character of the original composition of the Young League has its own arch of 4 or 5 episodes. So I don't understand the claims at all. And about Wally's death. Maybe the way to remove this character from the story was a little strange, but that's what effect it had on the team, that was powerful)) I immediately remember episode 25 of season 3, where tears come by themselves.
The avengers were NOT a listers pre mcu
Do you have any slightest idea how that narrows it down?
- Blight
Older cw is goated, newer bad
My only problem with the DCAU is how Batman ended up a secluded bitter old man in Batman Beyond. I never watched Batman Beyond simply because I can’t stand seeing Bruce being portrayed in that way. I know that he isn’t predisposed to have a normal life but att least let him have Dick, Barbara and Tim by his side.
ARROWVERSE IS THE BEST
Literally only Arrow and Black Lightning were the ones that didn't go to shit
James gun desperately needs to take notes
Nah injustice is just full blown Superman character assassination genuinely have no idea how ppl think it’s good
17:23 mmmhhh 😏
There’s a lot of comic universes I want to see get adapted faithfully, an animation like for example earth one
15:30 adapt one season per movie
The main character for a cinematic ex universe should be Barry Allen
Yeah bro you're list is fair the DCAU is the best DC universe put to screen
Arrow:
Season 1 great 9/10
Season 2 great 9/10
Season 3 decent 6.8/10
Season 4 bad 4/10
Season 5 good 8/10
Season 6 meh 6/10
Season 7 good 7.8/10
Season 8 was what it was weird to rate
What about the Lego DC universe
1. DCAU
It's not even close.
Nah Young justice is definitely much
better than Injustice movies and games.
Zoom, Slade, Prometheus, and EOBARD MOTHAFUCKIN THAWNE were the best villains in that whole CW verse
Its a shame, the CW was really, REALLY fun when it was actually good
Theneverything started falling apart
Tbf to arrow wasnt he somewhat written as a more violent batman? Dont quote me tho i just love cw arrow but ye it did go to shit sadly.
Young Justice could have been number two if it wasn’t for the god awful seasons 3 and 4. I loved the first two seasons but after watching number 3 I knew that it was time to move on to something else.
Young justice is my number 1 my favorite seasons was 3 and 4 and me and so many love young justice because they focus on more characters people don’t know about so that people can know these characters and how powerful they are, because I mean how can you be a fan and not give these characters a chance lol.
You think the DCAMU is better than the Tomorrowverse? Interesting..
Honestly, I'd rather YJ skip the 5 year jump and continue with the OG team and add Blue B. and Beast B later. DCAMU had A LOT of emphasis on Batman when it should have been Flash since he started the universe anyway. Cyborg got no movie either.
The dcau🙏
There is NO way you believe that the tomorrow verse is better than the dceu and arrowverse 💀💀💀💀
Never rank again
Everyone else seems to agree with him 💃
Dceu is ahh
Timverse>>>>>Dcau
the tomorrowverse sucks so far. also the Flash running around the world to beat braniac-luther was the best moment in DC TV media history.
What no Superfriends extended universe? 9 separate shows Blue Falcon Dynomutt Scooby-Doo, the Harlem Globetrotters..The Hanna Barbara verse is also DC. Space Ghost Birdman etc.
Young Justice would slap with tie-in movies between seasons
I'd never rank DCAMU over Young Justice.
I also mich prefer Season 4 to season 2...
The last season of Young Justice was dog 💩.
Shit was gahbage
Bro cant spell lmao
The Snyder verse sucks
It's the worst adaptation of these characters
