@agent41: Oh yeah I agree with more exposure, I think a movie would be best and take it from there. Or more graphic novels mini series, like the one that one the Eisner recently or Grant Morrisons earth one series (which is actually getting a sequel). DCs problem movie verse isn't that they rely on batman and superman too much. In the past only those two had movies, but during the Donner, Burton era, there was no talk what so ever about a shared universe. Even during Nolan, who made fantastic movies, that was the Batmans first major movie since B and R. A travesty. DC just barely made super hero movies, not nearly as constant as marvels. When they saw Marvel's success they tried to emulate. They opened with MoS. But that wasn't well received. Then BvS, Then Suicide Squad. Both were beyond not well received. The second solo movie they gave to Wonder Woman. Batman isn't getting a solo until 2019-2020. The problem vs Marvel isn't that DC doesn't use their characters, it's that they're playing catch up, so they can't give everyone solos before justice league, and they offerings the have had before WW in their shared world, are absolute trash. If the movies would have been well received, they'd be flying right now.
TV video wise is another story. THERE they abuse batman a lot. I'd actually want to see different animated movies about different characters. Superman, Wonder woman flash. Even the flash story they did was Flashpoitnb, a story that featured batman heavily. Video game wise, yes they focus on Batman. But that's only because it's easiest. DC has gods, it's much easier to make a game about a street leveler with gadgets to vary up game play. Again, look at marvel, their first foray into serious single character games in a long time is spider man, because street levelers are easiest that way.
