Superman's Centennial Could Define DC's Future
R/
R/SUPERMANA fan on r/superman is already thinking big about what DC might do to mark Superman's 100th birthday in 2038. That's 14 years away, but it's the kind of milestone that deserves planning. The character literally founded the superhero genre, so hitting a century is monumental for the entire medium, not just DC. The thread is really asking: what would be worthy of that moment?
ComicsBuzz Take
If DC actually commits to something massive for the centennial—like a multimedia event or major continuity shift—it could position Superman as the defining statement character for the next generation the way he was for the original.
