DC Future State was a mini-DC Comics event taking place early 2021.In the aftermath of Dark Nights: Death Metal, the heroes have triumphed over Perpetua and the Batman Who Laughs. However, their actions causes time-space to warp, showing a glimpse of the future...or a future. A future where new heroes don classic identities and Earth and the universe evolve in new and exciting...or dangerous ways.Running through January and February 2021, all prior titles were replaced with a set of new books for this event, all giving a glimpse of both a possible future and events happening in the returning titles come March 2021 under the brand new banner DC Infinite Frontier.Ahead of the event in November 2020, it was confirmed that Yara Flor, the future Wonder Woman, will star in her own Wonder Girl title later in the year, set in the main DC Universe. Similarly, Jace Fox, who is Batman during Future State, began his journey to becoming Batman in the main DC Universe in the pages of The Next Batman: Second Son.

Fugitive Arc
 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_1285edb8
comment
Fugitive Arc: This is a shared theme with the stories set within Gotham City after all costumed vigilantes had been outlawed under the Magistrate's regime. The most prominent example being the new Batman (Timothy "Jace" Fox), who is the #1 name on the Magistrate's kill list with their drones and armed patrols constantly surveilling the streets of Gotham for any sign of his presence. This gets even worse for Jace in Future State: Gotham where he gets wrongfully implicated as the terrorist responsible for the destruction of the Narrows, putting him in the crosshairs of the Peacekeepers, Jason Todd, and the entire Bat Family as a whole.

Alternate Timeline
 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_19b6f396
comment
Alternate Timeline: While some of these titles explored upcoming events, it's quite clear that these are possible futures, not actual. The finale of Future State:Justice League has a character tell another that the events of this timeline are better off averted, although how that happens is not shown in any Future State book, as they follow the timeline through to the very end.

 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_200c8312
comment
Alternate Company Equivalent: The whole event, with every DC title being put on hold for two months while a series of mini-series take their place to tell a story of an Alternate Timeline, is very reminiscent of Marvel's Age of Apocalypse. The new Suicide Squad consisting of a group of villains masquerading as the Justice League has been compared to Dark Avengers. A bird-named psychic super heroine who got her start as a member of a teen superhero team becoming an all-powerful cosmic destroyer. Are we talking about the Dark Phoenix or The Unkindness, aka Raven?

Birds of a Feather
 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_275d19ee
comment
Birds of a Feather: The two detectives on The Justice League, Green Lantern(Sojourner Mullein) and Batman(Jace Fox), are less abrasive to each other than the rest of the league. Downplayed in that they're still not friends. Green Lantern simply finds Batman to be the most reliable after herself and Batman finds Green Lantern to be the most trust worthy, convinced the other four are far more liable to turn on him.

Aquawoman is extremely protective of the Flash, when the two are alone they are shown to be casually physically intimate, the Flash has a private Affectionate Nickname for Aquawoman and reveals that they know she talks in her sleep. It’s not made clear if they are involved or if it’s just a very close platonic friendship.

Sadly Mythtaken: Tupã as the equivalent to Zeus kind of works, but he's usually considered to be the servant, aspect or splinter of a larger god rather king of his pantheon. The headless mules are usually portrayed as actually being headless, for one, and while they are indeed figures from Brazilian folklore they do not have much to do with Iae and Kuat, who more so religious figures that are more strongly associated with birds than equines.

Psycho Prototype
 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_3cba8ce9
comment
Psycho Prototype: Warmonger, the terrorist truly behind the bombing of the Gotham City Narrows, was originally an early candidate for what would ultimately become the Magistrate's Peacekeeper Program. While he possesses all the traits of a well-trained Super-Soldier, Warmonger is also a homicidal maniac who ironically despised the very idea of peace and was instead obsessed with waging war. Astrid Arkham rescued Warmonger from a secret Magistrate cold storage facility not knowing who he really was, resulting in him repaying her kindness by slaughtering her civilian support network before hijacking the Mad Hatter technology she uses to help keep her Arkham Knights mentally stable to enact a grand plot to plunge Gotham City into a Forever War.

Manipulative Bastard: Per for the norm for Amanda Waller, but it's implied she spent years emotionally abusing Conner Kent in order to build him up as the Superman she wanted him to be. Even when it turns out she didn't mean a Superman who kills, Conner only reaches this state in defiance of how she treated him since she first got her hands on him.

So Jason instead vows to become Jace Fox's Friend on the Force from within the Magistrate just like James Gordon was to Bruce Wayne within the GCPD. He even creates a new Bat Signal in the form of a deployable holographic projector capable of blanketing the sky with the famed insignia to make it official.

Forbidden Friendship: Aquawoman and the Flash (Jess Chambers) are BFFs despite League rules explicitly banning members from forming personal relationships. Superman (Jon Kent) and Wonder Woman (Yara Flor) are also close confidants despite both acknowledging that their heart-to-heart talks are against the rules. Wonder Woman agrees with the rules, but can't help herself because she's gotten used to giving Superman what she believes to be necessary Tough Love long before becoming a league member.

Future Badass: As most of the main characters are children or teens in the prime timeline this is pretty much inevitable. The ultimate example would probably be Aquawoman, who is a superhero and member of the Justice League in the future and a literal baby in the present of the DCU.

Affirmative-Action Legacy: The new Superman, Jonathan Kent, is bisexual. The new Wonder Woman, Yara Flor, is Brazilian. The new Batman, Tim Fox, is African-American.

The newest Bolt is an Australian, dark-skinned, blonde girl with both legs amputated. Subverted in that she is a speedster while the previous Bolt was solely an electricity-themed villain.

Myth Arc: Most of the stories are self-contained, but there is an overarching plot running through some of them about The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Which looks set to continue into the main line of comics, as the Future State version of Black Adam is transported back in time to 2021 to kill Raven before she is possessed by them and becomes the Unkindness.

Face–Heel Turn
 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_af3ea0e3
comment
Face–Heel Turn: Shazam murdered the Creeper, Jakeem and Johnny Thunder, and seemingly Tim Drake in an attempt to cover up the fact that he's not Billy Batson anymore. Vixen also finds out he's responsible for the murder of Slade Wilson and Martian Manhunter. Longtime Bat-ally Lucius Fox is now a staunch supporter of the Magistrate and has been using Wayne Enterprises to manufacture and sell militarized weapon and surveillance systems directly to the Magistrate's Peacekeepers to support their crackdown on costumed vigilantes and villains alike. His wife Tanya is also one of the many lawyers under Mayor Nakano working around the clock to find a way to legally defend the Magistrate's "shoot on sight" mandate. One of the major twists in the Grifters short story is that Luke Fox a.k.a. Batwing was a Magistrate mole who made a deal with the Peacekeepers to sell out the Huntress in exchange for his own freedom. After being possessed by all four spirits of the Horsemen of Apocalypse and stealing the powers of Shazam, Raven yet again pulls one of these after Neron assists with breaking her out of the Rock of Eternity so she can raise hell on Earth.

Knight Templar
 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_bbfaa837
comment
Knight Templar: The Peacekeepers, the cybernetically enhanced Super Soldiers who command the Magistrate, are ultra-authoritarian goons who are totally unflinching in their pursuit of eliminating every costumed vigilante in Gotham while maintaining their chokehold on the power structures of the city. They have committed everything from Police Brutality, assassinations of corporate and political figureheads, false-flag operations, and forcing media outlets to flood public perception with propaganda. All to achieve the singular goal of making Gotham into their vision of a better place. Then there are particularly more vile examples within their ranks like Peacekeeper-06 who murdered a little girl Jace Fox rescued from human traffickers, simply so she wouldn't grow up to be a potential Batman supporter out of gratitude.

Legacy Character
 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_c9e5a0db
comment
Legacy Character: The event shows new legacy versions of a few characters. Jonathan Samuel Kent becomes the second Superman. His descendant Rowan becomes the third. The new Batman is Tim Fox. The new Wonder Woman is Yara Flor. Nubia also becomes Wonder Woman at a different point in the timeline. The new Flash is Jess Chambers. The last Blue Lantern is Ronan Kent. The previous iterations of Superwoman were Kristin Wells, villains from an alternate universe and the New 52 versions of Lois Lane and Lana Lang. The one in this event is Kara Zor-El. For the Teen Titans series, Dick Grayson decides to take the mask of Deathstroke. By the time period of Black Adam One Million, the Quintessence mostly consists of legacy characters: the wizard Shazam is still there, but the Spectre seems to have taken the Phantom Stranger's place, Barda is now in Highfather's, Hippolyta in Zeus/Hera's, and Sinestro in Ganthet's.

What the Hell, Hero?
 DC Future State (Comic Book) / int_d39e327f
comment
What the Hell, Hero?: Caipora tries to lecture Yara Flor but gets shut up before she can get going. Yara eventually learns her lesson anyway when observing Kuat, whose return she's partly responsible for, nearly kills dozens of people just to get at one corrupt politician. Yara even admits she's probably not the best person to be dressing him down. Tiffany Fox doesn't mince words when she calls out her own parents on the fact that they, of all people, are willingly supporting a privatized law enforcement organization that employs lethal force against civilians on the slightest provocation.

Hypocrite: When Tanya Fox is subdued by the new Batman, the Peacekeepers accuse him of not caring about civilian casualties because he gave Tanya a pretty hefty fleshwound in the process. Not only was Tanya pulling a gun on him and the civilian behind him, but the peacekeepers are authoritarian bullies who happily kill civilians at the slightest provocation. Tanya also later uses Batman's self-defense as an example of why he needs to die, nevermind that she was clearly the aggressor in the situation.

comment
Lesser of Two Evils: While Yara Flor understandably wants to punish Kuat after his showboating nearly kills a dozen people, one of those people was a thieving politician those otherwise innocent bystanders going down with him were sick of. When the comic goes on to pit Kuat against Solaris, who has destroyed hundreds of star systems and is threatening to torch the surface of the Earth all because of his grudge born from one man making him look bad, the reader can be forgiven for forgetting Kuat has done anything wrong at all, even though he opposes Solaris out of jealousy rather than righteousness or altruism.
