WHAT KILLED DC UNIVERSE? - PART 2 of 3

Only shortly prior, parent company WarnerMedia launched HBO Max, which absorbed the majority of DC Universe’s streaming catalog. In part 2 of Moonjumper’s examination of what factors may or may not have contributed to the failure of the fledging DC Universe, the clear juggernaut in the room, HBO Max, certainly can’t be ignored.
