After a brief conversation with her, Gar headed back into The Red, where he saw visions of Swamp Thing from the same-named DC Universe series, Shazam from the DC Extended Universe and a TV set showing the Beast Boy from Teen Titans Go!, as well as hearing audio from the animated Harley Quinn series, Smallville, Superman: The Movie and the 1960s Batman TV series.
Yeah, we got to do it in our own way and not on the cinematic, big screen level, but I think it’s tongue in cheek enough that… did it even happen?Īfter going back in time and comforting his younger, pre-Beast Boy self, Gar got his first taste of the multiverse when he saw Grant Gustin’s Barry Allen from The CW’s The Flash racing along, but the speedster’s lightning knocked the Titan into Earth-2, which led to him meeting Brec Bassinger’s Stargirl, as had been teased last September.
So to go back to this idea of multiversal theory and really be able to explore that, you gotta give credit where credit is due. And there’s that special thanks at the end of the episode to Grant Morrison because he kind of penned this idea first. It’s this last ten years of DC content giving you glimpses of fan favorites and glimpses of individuals that people might not be as familiar you’re with. So I fought for Swamp Thing and the animated version of Beast Boy, and then the rest were a surprise, and once I read them, I found them to be… they fit. Geoff and I had figured out which ones those would be. But in addition to his time on screen, Potter also co-crafted the story for “Dude, Where’s My Gar?” with executive producer Geoff Johns, and the actor explained how they figured out what Gar would see and hear while in The Red: I had the pleasure of speaking with Ryan Potter alongside actor Joivan Wade, as this episode also delivered a long-awaited crossover between Titans and Doom Patrol by finally bringing these versions of Beast Boy and Cyborg face to face.
