What that ‘Black Adam’ end credits scene means for the DC Extended Universe is anyone’s guess, but suffice to say that the scene that follows “A Death in the Family,” in which Superman meets his father’s murderer, seems almost like an ending to the franchise as well.

But that doesn’t mean that there isn
