Do you really think AT&T want to go down in history as the company that cancelled Batman and Superman?

Time traveller here, if DC doesn't die, then will I ever be born?

Batman and Superman don't have to be cancelled. Their publishing rights can be sold. Same as Conan, same as Star Wars. All these things are just IPs.

Why sell? You will always make money with IP farming.

They can keep merchandising rights, which is where the real money is. Clothes, videogames, movies, and still get out of print. For a recent example, Marvel licensed their characters to IDW for them to make children's comics using Marvel characters. Marvel still owns these characters, but IDW is doing the job for them.

DC Universe will probably be folded into whatever streaming service they are making.
DCEU is mostly being rebooted with stuff like Wonder Woman 2 ignoring Snyder’s continuity. And if JOKER is successful then they will probably make more elseworlds.
CW will probably stay the same.
The comic division is the one in most danger. They lost a lot of sales. Sure, they haven’t been bigger than Marvel, but they were still somewhat sizeable/respectable. Now sales are in the toilet and Batman is selling less than the Hulk. I expect major shake-ups. Many more people being fired. And many trades cancelled. They won’t be cancelled. But it will get to the point where 90% of their books are Batman. Didio and Harras need to stop being edgy tryhard idiots and fix everything.
