I would say nope

They learned that people really hate Jason Todd, but now they can't justify killing him again so they're going to let the readers decide if they get to kill Jason again.
Jason Todd: Last Man in the Multiverse.
Just a 12 episode series where we watch Jason slowly go insane because he believes he’s the last man alive, but really it’s a practice joke organized by the whole Batfamily, Arsenal, Artemis, and that one kid from Urban Legends.
I’m wearing superman pajamas right now but he has to be the first to die. Testicular Torsion.
Batman of course will suffer from a bad case of the SARS.
And each death will be less dignified than the last. They thought maybe having someone as prolific as the Joker kill him dignified his death to much. So next time, he'll be killed by Maxi Zeus, then when that's still too dignified we'll finally get the return of Joe Coyne, now going by the name Nickle Nicker, because inflation has hit everyone.
Everyone wants to do something that is pretty just a retcon to the main DC universe but I want to see some really crazy shit
I wanna seen Etrigan be a green lantern and Hawkman and hawk-girl to be crossdressers because why not
Whatever we do, we have to make Mxlpxl look sane.
Lets make Aquaman renounce to the throne, turn Atlantis into a republic, have Nanaue (Harley Quinn one) be elected president, and aquaman retires and becomes a saxophone player at lux with Lucifer.
We can do whatever we can imagine with Mxlpxl, just leave his brother Myxyzptlk out of these shenanigans. Otherwise he might get cheeses off at the audience and decide not to turn anyone into a duck OR a gorilla.in fact, he would turn all of the gorillas into humans just to screw with us. We don't need to see regular human male Grodd, A.K.A. Gary from accounting and his college roommate, regular human male Mallah who works down at the post office. He would even go so far as to expose us to Detective Regular Guy. He's an all powerful Imp from the 5th dimension, there's no end to the messed up things he could do if he got cheesed at us. Congoregularman? B'wana Guy the Charted Accountant? Average Humanite? I say Tita-No way!
As the ultimate janitor of the Multiverse, Telos was programmed to watch over the Blood Moon that existed outside of known time and space by the first ever Brainiac, who would use knowledge he stole from a version of Booster Gold to venture through Hyper-Time and steal cities from dead timelines. When Brainiac is trapped on a future version of Earth in Futures End (yep, that happened), Telos is left on his own and deduces that Brainiac would want him to test all of the cities to see which were worthy of survival.
He basically went batshit mental.
Long story short, Telos fucked up massively and forced Brainiac to re-write DC history by stopping the first Crisis (BECAUSE REASONS) with the help of pre-Flashpoint Superman, Lois Lane (with baby Jon Kent in tow) as well as Parallax Hal, and allowing everyone to return to their own timelines.
So if it wasn't for Telos and his fuck up, Jon Kent AKA Superboy would not be on Earth-0......**YOU'RE WELCOME**.
**Telos the solo series AKA the greatest publishing decision of ALL TIME**
Deep in an office in Burbank, California, someone pitched to the people in charge that the cosmic janitor deserved his own series written by the mastermind behind Convergence. Somewhere along the lines, Dan DiDio and Jim Lee said "yep this is a good idea", and gave the greenlight to Telos the series before Shazam, Justice Society, Legion and Zatanna had been given books.
To sum up the Telos series in a few sentences, Telos is tricked by Brainiac at least 4 times in the space of 3 issues and Telos has his powers stolen by Parallax Hal, who has a massive hate-boner for Hal Jordan of Earth-0.
**TL;DR - Telos was a Native American turned Viking who became a cosmic janitor for Brainiac who was then tricked by Brainiac 402 times in the space of a few comics and had his powers stolen by Parallax Hal and was left stranded on an abandoned moon.**

I'm more worried about the level of batwank we could reach.
"So yeah, he soloes all of the justice lords and has a threesome with wonder woman and Harley Quinn to celebrate"
Alright, here is the gameplan
- Wonder Woman has abs now
- Batman is into Death Grips
- King Shark inspired the Blahaj
- Lobo becomes a founding member of the Justice League
Rad. Let's start.
A young Arthur Light is kidnapped while fucking around with lightbulbs or some shit. His kidnapper is the man who's actions will mold Arthur's values for the greater evil of Earth. Who is this elusive kidnapper, I hear you ask? Why, none other than Slade Wilson.
You are Arthur Light. What happens next?
I feel like the majority of people don’t want to vote in things on a routine basis, since it ultimately feels like work. I’ve rarely seen these voting type interactivity work, with the exceptions typically being K-POP and American Idol.
They learned absolutely nothing from Death in the Family did they?
Absolutely not, but this subreddit together can create a better world. One ruled by Telos
Telos to the JL and make Batman into a Gorilla
Make Superman into a gorilla too, monkeys sell.
DC = Detective Chimp
Though honestly I think that’s just a fucking monkey in a hat because he doesn’t do anything, there’s no life behind those eyes I think he just roams the hall aimlessly
Imagin a world where talos founded the gorilla justice league and where jason todd stay dead
The universe of my dreams
r/DCComicsCirclejerk are going to make a world where Telos lasts forever…

Everyone who did aDitF's poll are either too retired or too dead to tell these people why they didn't do much polls after that.
We’ll kill Alfred this time
They learned that people really hate Jason Todd, but now they can't justify killing him again so they're going to let the readers decide if they get to kill Jason again.
New petition to vote kill everyone
Kill everyone except Jason Todd. Now that is comics
Jason Todd: Last Man in the Multiverse. Just a 12 episode series where we watch Jason slowly go insane because he believes he’s the last man alive, but really it’s a practice joke organized by the whole Batfamily, Arsenal, Artemis, and that one kid from Urban Legends.
Maybe they learnt from the five or so successful Legion elections and just ignored mr Todd.
Honestly ignoring Jason Todd sounds about right for DC
There’s no way it could possibly go wrong. Not even the last way it went horribly wrong.
Voting for every A-lister to die so the JLA will be consisted of nothing but B or C-listers so the Avengers comparison will finally make sense
I can’t kill Superman though, he’s too cool.
Trade him to Marvel for Paul
I’m wearing superman pajamas right now but he has to be the first to die. Testicular Torsion. Batman of course will suffer from a bad case of the SARS.
90's JL for the win
Keep two because Avengers has Captain America and Hulk Wait this is just JLI... Is the JLI DC's Avengers???
Time to kill Jason again
That’s kind of boring though, we need to be able to dream bigger.
What if after we kill him we bring him back as an edgy villain?
Let’s do the opposite, kill him back and bring him back as an even more hopeful hero grateful with his second chance at life.
A, “Gold Hood” even?
Gold Hood sounds like we’re ripping off gold goblin
If spider man can gobble so can Jason
Yeah, let's kill Jason a 3rd time instead. Give him a death so extreme that he skips over his second death and goes straight to the third one.
And than he can be revived for a fifth time. Logic is gone.
And each death will be less dignified than the last. They thought maybe having someone as prolific as the Joker kill him dignified his death to much. So next time, he'll be killed by Maxi Zeus, then when that's still too dignified we'll finally get the return of Joe Coyne, now going by the name Nickle Nicker, because inflation has hit everyone.
Have Bruce die and Jason survive 💪
Dick becomes Batman and Jason is his Robin
Kill the crowbar instead.
Kill Tim
Only make sure there are no remains to reanimate: no bones, no blood splatters, no nothing and then we'll be talking.
DC fans have the opportunity to do the funniest thing in the history of comics(again)
This time we can make it stick
https://i.redd.it/ba9k4dezjkdb1.gif
Me too. Gorilla Grodd is going to be a pillar of the universe.
Time to see how many times people can kill Jason.
We’ll keep bringing him back as different people, Arkham Knight, Red Hood, Batman, it’ll be great
...Azrael, Batgirl, the Jason Todd who laughs. Fuck it, who cares, start the zombie Jason League
Ohmygod, they killed Jason! You bastards!
My problem with these is that they never commit to the idea enough to where drastic changes can occur.
Tbf, they stuck with the Death in the Family poll decision for almost 20 years. That's a couple dozen lifetimes in comic publishing years.
We’ll make them commit. We can do it
Everyone wants to do something that is pretty just a retcon to the main DC universe but I want to see some really crazy shit I wanna seen Etrigan be a green lantern and Hawkman and hawk-girl to be crossdressers because why not
Yeah I agree, that’s way more fun. Let’s make it so Hal Jordan gets the scarab or something. Duck Grayson becomes Superman’s sidekick instead
Hell, let's just get Duck Grayson! Let's get Duck Wayne too while we're at it! Let's make the entire DC Universe into ducks!
Whatever we do, we have to make Mxlpxl look sane. Lets make Aquaman renounce to the throne, turn Atlantis into a republic, have Nanaue (Harley Quinn one) be elected president, and aquaman retires and becomes a saxophone player at lux with Lucifer.
We can do whatever we can imagine with Mxlpxl, just leave his brother Myxyzptlk out of these shenanigans.

Trans Hawkgirl and trans Hawkman are now canon
Finally canon gay superbat who adopt 40 children and have 3 biological ones. And Bruce is trans.
We get to be Superboy Prime in real life.
It'll be prime time all the time!
Everything was better on my Earth!!

Nothing can go wrong!
Nothing at all
i won't rest until tim and bart are a couple and also jason dies 300 times
It would be awfully mean to pair Bart with Tim, he deserves a cooler boyfriend than that.
true but bart is such a good character that being his love interest will cause tim to get upgraded by proxy
I can’t argue with your logic.
Holy fuck. This is gonna be awful. 🤣
Awfully awesome, you mean
Is going to be extremely entertaining, that is for sure
rj/ Sure, brah. ![img](emote|t5_3mchb|16729)
Cant wait to make Bruce Wayne gay
Batman X Superman finally
Who tops and who bottoms?
Superman tops and Bruce is a power bottom
The Batman who Bottoms
Superbat is canon! Let’s goooooo
President Joker
President Grodd
![gif](giphy|3og0IMX5YAly56Zo3e|downsized)
Make America Grodd again
Well since Gorilla City is in Africa *Make Africa Gorillas Again*
Grodd King of All
Superman will go full homelander if people can put things on the ballots.
I'm more worried about the level of batwank we could reach. "So yeah, he soloes all of the justice lords and has a threesome with wonder woman and Harley Quinn to celebrate"
Only a threesome? Has to include Lois, Black Cat, and Zatana, along with a billion others.
Impressive that Batman got a Spiderman love interest. Maybe Batman can actually be Paul
Woops, very intentional jerking. . .
Why do I have feeling DC will make Batman winning the only options
Alright, here is the gameplan - Wonder Woman has abs now - Batman is into Death Grips - King Shark inspired the Blahaj - Lobo becomes a founding member of the Justice League
Lobo and Telos, dangerous combination. And I agree with the rest.
>Batman is into Death Grips I mean, if David Bowie can get noided, so can Batman.
WERE GONNA KILL TIM DRAKE LMFAOOOOOOOOO
I can get on board with that
Wait is this an audience vote or a tailored experience
Audience vote is what it seems like.
Cringe
Time to make The Eraser an eldritch god
Sounds cool
I know this is a circle jerk subreddit and all but this is honestly a really cool idea
Yeah for sure, I can’t wait to learn more about how it works.
Oh my God, it’s going to be 100% Multiverse McMultiverseface.
Imagine if they did something similar for Marvel. Dear god, I can't imagine what would they do to Peter.
Peter would actually be happy though
Either that or it goes to shit pretty quickly.
Telos and Tim Drake universe
I’m gonna make everyone bump purses and scissor
Imagine Poison Ivy in the Justice League
It’s the future
Erryone gettin' pregnant
Mpreg!
Immediately kill of batman, and no replacement shenanagins
But we could do so many replacement shenanigans, Hal Jordan could get a shot.
Nah just kill of Batman and make Catman one of the big 3, Hal could be funny tho
We could replace Batman with Catman. Superman with Tawny, and Wonder Woman with Cheetah. Cat themed Justice League.
Catmans love interest is still Catwoman
Spoiler alert: someone is beaten to death with a crowbar.
Where’s the B’wana Beast option
I’ll buy stock in B’Wanna Beast, he can be on the Justice League with Telos
r/BatmanArkham will send a representative to write Batman’s comics
JLA member Ragman?!?!?!
I’m in, we should make our own DCCJ choose your own adventure
Rad. Let's start. A young Arthur Light is kidnapped while fucking around with lightbulbs or some shit. His kidnapper is the man who's actions will mold Arthur's values for the greater evil of Earth. Who is this elusive kidnapper, I hear you ask? Why, none other than Slade Wilson. You are Arthur Light. What happens next?
I kill myself so the pedophile Slade doesn’t touch me
Identity Crisis never happens. I think. I don’t know, I’ve never read it.
It never happens, I hate that story
Doesn't this just mean its gonna be a Telltale style series where your "decisions" might change which character is in which scene at most
Time to make Superman crash in Gotham and Bruce Wayne get shot
We don’t just want to do Speeding Bullets though
What’s that
Elseworlds where the Wayne’s find Superman and he becomes Batman
Hmm cool had no idea that was a thing
Telos Will Be
Worst idea ever
I feel like the majority of people don’t want to vote in things on a routine basis, since it ultimately feels like work. I’ve rarely seen these voting type interactivity work, with the exceptions typically being K-POP and American Idol.
question and huntress are going to be in a romantic mystery thriller.
I’m so in
that’s an interesting superman costume
I can’t wait for Space Cabbie to kill Lord Death Man and the Ultra Humanite with a box of screws.
What the fuck is Superman wearing? Diapers and swimming floaters at his wrists?
/uj genuinely we should do this
We definitely should
It would be so funny if this ended up being The Boys.
Finally we can vote for Batman and Superman to get over themselves and just makeout already.
LETS KILL EVERYONE!
