DC and Marvel have been rolling out some wild new crossover comics, but we couldn’t help asking: what else should be on the table?
In this episode, we pitch our dream crossovers — heroes, villains, and even creative teams we’d love to see collide. Some are obvious, some are bizarre, and some might just break the multiverse.
What crossovers would YOU put together? Let us know in the comments and tell us if DC and Marvel should just go ahead and hire us.

It’s Batman Day 2025, and Gotham is buzzing. With The Penguin racking up awards and fresh updates on Matt Reeves’ The Batman: Part II, DC Junktion is celebrating the Dark Knight in style. This week, Mike and Matt pitch their own villain reboots for the Reeves-verse — imagining how overlooked rogues could be reimagined as grounded, prestige-level threats. From cult leaders to revolutionaries to psychological manipulators, Gotham’s underbelly has never looked darker.
Listen now and tell us: which Batman villain do you want to see get the Reeves treatment?

We’re back with a stacked episode! Mike and Matt dig into all the latest DCU news and rumors, including:
• Superman projected to net a $125M profit and what that really means
• The Penguin scoring 8 Creative Arts Emmy wins (and still in the hunt for Primetime Emmys)
• James Gunn’s revealing sit-down with Howard Stern – from Man of Tomorrow to Clayface and Supergirl
• DC Comics’ big NYCC 2025 plans, including the Vertigo relaunch, Gotham experiences, Jim Lee & Friends, and more
• Trailer speculation: Lanterns, Supergirl, and whether a big reveal is coming to NYCC or the Super Bowl
And then we dive deep into our main topic: Who will make up the Justice League in the DCU? Will Gunn stick to the Trinity? Is Blue Beetle the new plucky heart? Will we see John Stewart, Hawkgirl, or even Mr. Terrific step in?
Let us know in the comments who you think makes the cut — and don’t forget to subscribe for more DC Junktion every week.

When you spend a lot of time on a podcast reviewing and discussing things you might not like, people often say things like "Let's here YOUR ideas if you know so much!"
Alrighty, then.
This week, we begin our journey of developing our own plans for how "Phase 1" of the DCEU could've gone. We're breaking this up into parts so that there's plenty of time spent discussing each of our choices.
For Part 1, we set up the rules:
- Six movies
- Any and all casting choices are on the table
- 'Man of Steel' remains as-is
In this episode, we're each developing what we think the immediate follow-up to 'Man of Steel' would be and how it would play into the greater story at large.
This is gonna be a lot of fun!
