James Gunn confirms that he and co-CEO of DC studios Peter Safran aren’t in control of the comics arm of the DC Universe.
DC fans are still recovering from last month's exciting news that James Gunn and Peter Safran were named the heads of the newly minted DC Studios. Since then there have been many teases from Gunn about what his DCU would look like, a vision that includes an interconnected universe of films, TV shows, and games. However, The Suicide Squad director just cleared up what he’s not in charge of — the comics side of DC.
In a Twitter thread, Gunn was replying to fans' questions about what his DCU would look like. This is when he was asked by one Twitter user if DC Studios would have a hand in the comics side of DC Publishing. Gunn replied saying, “Very open communication. As everyone knows I’m a huge comic book fan & I hope everything we do will lead to more people reading @DCComics . But Peter & I are not in charge of the comics - just all filmed DC entertainment.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The DC shows and films in the past have always inadvertently influenced the comics in one way or another. For example, John Diggle and Harley Quinn debuted on Arrow and Batman: The Animated Series respectively before jumping over to the comics years later. Expect the same treatment for new characters that are popular in the new DCU. Also, it's probably a safe bet that tie-in comics for DC films are going to continue.
