The fan response has exceeded our wildest expectations and we're excited to share this truly unique experience with everyone.
The first exclusive original series to premiere on DC UNIVERSE will be Titans, which is slated for October 12, 2018, followed by exclusive series including: Young Justice: Outsiders, Doom Patrol, Swamp Thing, Harley Quinn and Stargirl.
