It’s one of my favorite superhero things that has been made recently. Even what James Gunn did with “The Suicide Squad,” which is f***ing amazing. But if they’re going to be tying them together, how do you do that with a Nolan Batman and a f***ing “Shazam!” tonally? I don’t know, how do you do that? They’re so different. So you can have a “Joker,” but then you can have a “Shazam!” and it’s all good.

The one thing I will say, one of the strengths with DC is that the movies don’t have to affect each other tonally. So it was in there somewhere.Īnyway, multiverse stuff is just f***ing endlessly fascinating to me, and I want to see Marvel just go full-blown hardcore multiverse. I was like, “Dude, I remember watching this in high school,” and I had not seen it since high school. And that was something that I watched after season 3 and we did some of the s**t we did in season 3. And it’s like not actively realizing it, but later, retroactively, after a few seasons, I’m re-watching “Sliders” and I’m like, “Oh, my f***ing God, dude.” Even just the first episode blew my f***ing mind. Roiland: Just crazy s**t that we grew up with. Grammer: A little “X-Files,” a little sci-fi s**t. We weren’t super comic nerds, so we didn’t really know about all the crazy s**t, but I was thinking about “Sliders” in the deepest corner of my mind, not even really remembering that I was referencing it. Marvel was doing it and DC was doing it back in the comic books way before us. Honestly, if you think about it, we didn’t create the s**t. So I think it’s all really cool, I’d want to see more of it, and I’m excited that it’s happening. And for f***’s sake, it’s some of the best cinematic s**t in terms of just the crazy crisscross. But I just go, “Okay, well, you know what? Maybe he somehow figured out a way to get back to that reality as an old dude and who cares?” And I just flip that switch and just enjoy the f***ing thing. So wait a minute, did that mean he went back in time for real in that same exact timeline, because I thought they were crossing into other realities, right? How does that make sense? You know what I mean? Wait, now we’re getting into “Back to the Future” territory. In “Endgame,” there’s some issues where Steve Rogers is just suddenly in that same universe but old. I know, canonically, it doesn’t quite - don’t even get me started.

Spider-Man, the most recent one, that was f***ing amazing. As long as they’re doing it and they’re going to go there and really commit to multiverse s**t, I’m so there for it. But I just turn that part of my brain off and just enjoy. Now yes, if you’re going to get really logical about it, they’ve got inconsistencies and there are things in the Marvel multiverse canon that are in incongruent with each other. I think it’s such a fascinating thing if done well. F***ing pedal to the metal, let’s do it.” I want to see them do it. Personally, I actually am f***ing stoked. How do you guys feel when you see big budget franchises like Marvel and DC putting on their multiverse game? Do you sit back with a cigarette like, “Oh, child…” I’ve talked to some of the other writers about just keeping timelines and the multiverse and all that straight.

On that same train of thought, it feels like you break your brains a little bit with the science aspect of the show.
