If you've liked the Panel Biter DC Universe, let me start by thanking you for your following and your support. Secondly, I've mentioned how in my hypothetical universe some past, present, future, and fan-wanted DC properties would tie in to this fan-submitted series. Today I go fully into that idea by explaining the PBDC Crisis.
Usually, the word "Crisis" is used by DC to announce a reboot of their universe and this event is no different. Essentially, this idea would be put into activation at the finale of all the current/upcoming DC Comic's shows. Flash season 2, Arrow season 4, Supergirl season 1, Gotham season 2, and whatever that Teen Titans show is going to be called season 1, will all get finales that end with a white light. This all ties back to The Flash, who in season two of his show has been dealing with parallel dimensions. For this fictional transition from a dispersed DCU to a connected one, The Flash would the linchpin in this universal crossover. By tampering with time and space, Flash/Barry Allen is warned by time traveller Rip Hunter that he has brought upon another "Crisis". As Rip explains, "crisis" are events in time that rearrange the fabric of reality, that even before Barry's universe came to be there were others like it that contained Flash's of different eras, Golden Age versions of heroes, and even versions that existed as cartoons and comic books. This revelation would end the current DC shows and replace them with one major short-series called "DC's Crisis on Infinite Earths".
"DC's Crisis on Infinite Earths" would feature Rip Hunter and The Flash gathering certain characters from around the DC multiverse and attempting to theoretically tie the ripped universes together. They would gather John Constantine from NBC's "Constantine", Kara-El from CBS's "Supergirl", Wonder Woman from the 1977 "Wonder Woman" show, and young Bruce Wayne from Fox's "Gotham". These six travel from DC Earth to DC Earth, trying to use The Flash as a sponge for all the time energy disrupting each Earth. In doing this, Barry/Flash would meet The Flash of the 90's television show, Constantine would meet his Keanu Reeves counterpart, Supergirl would meet Superman of "Smallville" and much, much more. Along the way the team is threatened by an entity called The Anti-Monitor, a machine set to destroy all Earths.
By the end of it, the team find themselves facing down Warner Bros current movie universe. In order to save his world and others, The Flash uses his connection to The Speed Force and the power of The Anti-Monitor to fuse every DC Universe into one, the one being my fictional design for a cinematic universe. While Supergirl, Wonder Woman, and Bruce Wayne would be repositioned and changed with no memory, the rest of the universe would change with them. The only people who remember "how things used to be" would be Barry Allen, John Constantine and Rip Hunter.
"The Flash" would change slightly in that previous events of the show may be canon, while the positions of Kaitlin Snow, Robbie Raymond, and Ray Palmer would be changed, and additionally The West Family would expand with the presence of Barry's adopted brother David and his adopted nephew Wally West, who would later become his sidekick Kid Flash. Green Arrow-in his show-would tie the knot with his partner Black Canary and become more an activist. Constantine would reappear in the show "Hellblazer" trying to continue his conman ways in a world with old and new magic. The show "Gotham" would become "Gotham Central", a cop show set in present Gotham City from the view point of Jim Gordon and the GCPD, kind of like DC's "Agents of Shield". The Teen Titans, Vixen, and The Legion of Superheroes would also get shows, as would Firestorm and The Atom in mini-series.
As for the old separated universes, Barry would struggle to keep his mouth shut about the old universe and it would become one of his personal challenges in season 3 of his show. Since the shows would run parallel with the movies we'd see Barry/Flash fight Reverse-Flash again and sacrifice himself to forever battle The Reverse-Flash in The Speed Force. Barry does this to keep his family safe, since The Speed Force is a dimension where Flash-like characters get their powers it would also be a way to keep the Flash Legacy alive. In his absence, Wally West/Kid Flash would be asked by Barry-via video-to become the new Flash. This-along with the time traveling sidekick Bart Allen/Impulse-would happen just before the fourth Justice League film. Barry Allen would not only be the survivor of "The Crisis", but the guardian of The Speed Force.
I hope this explanation helps get across what I want for a DC Cinematic Universe, I'm sure DC's TV department has considered something like this given the references and time travel shenanigans they've pulled in the CW Flash show. It's on season 2 right now so go check it out when you get a chance. Anyway, the PBDC series will return next week.
