“”And James is like: “You know that these rules do not really apply. It is not because he dies here that he disappeared forever, right? And I said to myself: “hell yeah”. So I have hope. Somewhere in the bottom of my mind, there is a prayer to see more boomerang one day. “”

However, Gunn still seems to determine the details of this idea, because some of his other responses on social networks have contradicted previous declarations.
Although it is fun concepts to think, the most important task for the moment for Gunn and the DC Studios is to make sure that Superman is a success and that the DCU sinks on the right foot.
Stay listening to CBM for future updates when we can’t wait to see how the concept of pocket dimensions unfolds and see what similarities and differences. The point of view of the DCU shares several realities with what Kevin Feige and Co. are currently cooking with Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars.
