Stan Lee’s DC Comics JUST IMAGINE characters return in new Earth-6 anthology

Two decades ago, Marvel Comics pioneer Stan Lee dipped his toe in the “Distinguished Competition’s” pool when he teamed up with various DC in-house creators to re-imagine some of the publisher’s iconic characters in a series of one-shots aptly titled Just Imagine.

DC Marks Stan Lee’s 100th Birthday With Return of Just Imagine

It’s a lesser-known Marvel property that Lionsgate owned, and in the early 2000s, director Brett Leonard was tasked with bringing it to life. However, Leonard shared that another big Marvel property’s lack of success affected his movie in a bad way.
