While toxic behavior of a few members does not represent an entire demographic, the SnyderVerse fandom had a rough start with their reactionary approach to WBD’s reluctance to follow through with the trajectory of Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Zack Snyder’s Justice League. However, this new initiative may be the best thing for Snyder and his fans, WBD, James Gunn, and possibly Netflix, assuming the company determines that it is worth the investment.

WBD is reportedly struggling financially, which might explain the business decision to lease its properties and why the studio axed Batgirl. If WBD leased the rights to the SnyderVerse, the company would make a profit and Snyder would be able to finish his DC saga under Netflix, all while James Gunn builds his DCU in a different corner of the multiverse for theatrical releases. Although, it is up to Netflix to determine whether there is anything to gain from the investment.
The artist for the SnyderVerse-Netflix images reached out to comment, expressing that the promotional images were not created as a demand. Rather, they’re to pitch the possibility for Netflix, Zack Snyder, and WBD to negotiate a deal among themselves, assuming it is within those parties’ interests to do so. Snyder liked a fan’s post on Vero Social that used the hashtag #SellZSJLToNetflix, so with the director’s stamp of approval, SnyderVerse fans embark on this new initiative.
