James Gunn Says The DCU Is Ruled By 3 Groups: Metahumans, The Government & Giant Firms Like Wayne Enterprises

Overview

  • Gunn says the DCU now operates around three co‑equal factions, naming Metahumans, governments, and corporations.
  • He identifies four corporate heavyweights—LuthorCorp, Lord Tech, Stagg Industries, Wayne Enterprises—as central players vying for influence.
  • Corporations are described as amoral rather than evil, with outcomes shaped by leaders such as Lex Luthor.
  • Gunn cites LuthorCorp’s beneficial innovations, including a world‑running battery and cleaner, more efficient cars, to explain Lex’s fixation on Superman.
  • The relaunch features a distinct map with cities like Metropolis, Evergreen, and Coast City and ties across projects, with LuthorCorp seen in Superman, Lord Tech and Maxwell Lord appearing in Peacemaker season 2 on August 21, and reporting suggesting Wayne Enterprises could surface in The Brave and the Bold.
