And images like these (most probably fan-arts) are circulating everywhere now. Is it really done on purpose or is it just a coincidence?



Best Answer

With DC, nothing is a coincidence.

This film was released on the 25th anniversary of The Death of Superman comic, which was released November 17, 1992, and the 16th anniversary of Justice League (2001) which premiered its first episode November 17, 2001.

So, it appears that WB Studios just consider this date lucky and/ or just want to tribute to two of the greatest pieces in comics and animated genre.
