Honestly I just hope that DC Universe continues as a comic book streaming service.

Probably stupid to hope this, but if there was a price reduction for the comics streaming, I would absolutely want to keep this. Iāve read a bunch.

I donāt really care if DCU stays the same price or not, if it keeps the mods employed Iāll pay it. I was thinking about this during Applejackās office hours all-nighter (one of many!) when she was talking about the annual subscribers and getting discounts, etc. I donāt want a discount if it means DCU gets less money = less of a reason to keep this platform.

Thatās admirable and I donāt mean any disrespect to any mods/DCU staff, but Iām not really in a position to pay Warner Bros. the same amount of money for less or an inferior product.

I completely understand that and would have the same opinion under different circumstances. They could very easily make it cost zero dollars by shutting down completely. Not saying anyone is doing anything wrong at all by asking for a lower price. Just trying to keep it in perspective for myself.

This bums me out, as I donāt want to subscribe to HBO Max. I did the free trial and I really wasnāt impressed with it. I guess I could get a subscription if and when the third season of Doom Patrol comes out and then cancel it.

I admit it is a little bit of a bummer but think I was mostly using the service for the comics anyway since I wanted a complementary service for DC that I already have for MCU so I am happy the comics ( and the community here ) are staying. Wouldnāt mind if they lowered the price now like others have mentioned
I also have to admit ( donāt judge me here 
) that I just started watching Doom Patrol. Just been so busy with other stuff. If they do indeed move it off to HBO Max then I will probably either subscribe to HBO Max ( probably will anyway eventually ) or buy the physical seasons on blu-ray. Doom Patrol Blu-Ray season 1 is $14.99 on Amazon
I remember seeing that DCU subscribers get a discount on HBO Max but does that apply to annual members?
The potential removal of DCU Originals still leaves a huge number of comics and a backlog of older DC-related TV series - most of which are exclusives - on the service, so claiming that it is in its ādeath throesā is ājumping the gunā, particularly since specific details about the serviceās future have not yet been announced.

Good. Maybe DC can now make this app better for just comics like Marvel Unlimited. 
lol Marvel charges more and itās just comics. So goodbye. 
The current DC price is fine even with just comics.
I was spending easily $80+ at my LCS every couple weeks before DC Universe. $80 a year for 20,000+ comics is amazing compared to the price of buying 20 floppies at $4 a pop. Now Iāve cut my LCS purchases down to $20-$40 a month. Assuming this becomes comics only, Iāll spend whatever they want from me to keep having access to the comics backlog.

Why did I pay for a full year subscription if DC is moving all of itās original content to HBO Max? Anyone care to adress that?

With Covid around itās very unlikely thereās going to be much, if any new content for the next eight or nine months. Maybe animated stuff, but filming for season 3 of Titans and Doom Patrol havenāt even started yet. Itās highly unlikely there will be any new live content before April or May of 2021. Knowing that, I hope youāre okay with the comics. Sorry, man.

You lose series, they start up new series. It happens. And itās not like theyāve shutdown tv series, theyāve just moved them to where theyāll get the attention they deserve. Itās gonna be alright.

Jim Lee made it clear theyāre only cutting the bottom 20%-25% selling titles.

This is my concern as well. If these shows will be on both HBO Max and DC Universe, Iād be fine with that. Iām already paying for several streaming services, and I just donāt have the budget for both HBO Max and DC Universe.
