I love the DC Universe, it's one of my favorite things to exist. And because I'm so passionated about it, of course It's my number 1 biggest and favorite project on this website. I go by the list of DC Characters on Comic Vine and find my 5 favorite choices for the majority of characters. The choice that ''represents'' each character is my favorite choice for that character and the description + details about each character is how I imagine them if my number 1 choice for them would be if that person would actually play the character. Last things to know: - No ''castings'' are really connected, so it's just my favorite choice for different characters without the idea of being consistent - I choose these people in mind that they would play the character in live action projects - Unfortunately I'm not gonna choose someone who's played the character in live action before, due to me wanting to see a variety of people playing the character in live action but if they have only voiced the character, then It's fine. - I'm not going with 100% comic accuracy since I think catching the essence and feel of the character is most important plus I do view the characters in my own way. - I prioritize people I've watched but sometimes people I have a smaller connection gets chosen over someone I have a bigger connection to because I think they fit the role more. Thanks for reading btw ^-^
