Even in the darkest times, hope cuts through. Hope is the light that lifts us out of darkness“. – Kingdom Come Superman.

As DC’s streaming service has been on the full loop of producing good quality animated movies, most of them attribute Batman. 

We thought, why not have a look at these DC Animated films. 

We all are well aware that the DC universe is a tremendous zest for the fans looking to consume thousands of different stories featuring some of the greatest heroes and villains ever created in DC comics’ history. 

It’s been observed by fans that the service lacks quality or quantity when it comes to the comics. 

Still, the same thing cannot be said for its index of films or series, with most of the DCAMU’s releases that are confined to HBO Max. 

There are several notable absent titles such as Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. 

Well, DC Universe’s gaggle of animated movies is far from being extensive. 

Be this as it may seem, the DC streaming service still has a decent selection of flicks waiting to be sat through. 

So today, we at Animated Times thought why not have a look into some of the most finest DC animated movies that have been released and rank them accordingly. 

Sounds interesting. 

Let’s hop in to see some of the best DC Universe’s animated movies released so far.

Well, Justice League Dark: Apokolips War is one of my favorite DC animated movie among these 10. 

As it comprises more action, a bit of dark theme, some vigilante stuff with a lot of suspense. 

So the storyline has been an imperfectly executed attack on Apokolips home place for many Dc superheroes. 

But eventually, due to this attack, many superheroes die, resulting in Darkside victoriously conquering Earth. 

Now it’s up to the remaining superheroes to regroup and fight the intergalactic tyrant in order to save Earth and get back their planet Apokolips.
