Detective Comics Comics? That's just stupid. 158.116.225.11 (talk) 12:42, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

More DC heroes and villains listed in the lede paragraph[edit]

Can someone please add more DC Heroes and villains in the first lede paragraph. The marvel comics one lists far more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.88.227.232 (talk) 23:15, 24 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DC Entertainment split as its own article?[edit]

It seems to have enough sections and sources of its own for a standalone article; I say go ahead and give it its own article. --XSMan2016 (talk) 01:22, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support: Similar to how Marvel Entertainment and Marvel Comics are structured applies here. More than enough to warrant its own article. Hydro-Molecular Dude (talk) 06:47, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support: Its time to split, the size of the subsection and the amount of information makes a new article in itself.OscarFercho (talk) 23:45, 18 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support: The company (now Warner Bros. Discovery) is considering rearranging things with DC Entertainment. It would be convenient to split articles at this point. (talk) 19:45, 19 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support: Considering that Warner Bros. Discovery, have plans to re evaluate the nobality of DC as brand, it would be best to to spin out the article, and structure it an a proper manner. (talk) 8:02, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
Support: Honestly, I would have to agree. If Marvel Comics has a separate article from Marvel Entertainment, then so should DC Comics have a separate article from DC Entertainment. 2600:1700:C960:2270:FCD4:61E9:967B:C39E (talk) 02:56, 21 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
