As we await official word from Warners, we've made our own attempts at working out just which of the dozen or more League's post-credit scene, the latest whispers coming out of the DCEU rumor mill make quite a bit of sense.

After the credits rolled on Justice League, fans were treated to a sequence starring Joe Manganiello's Deathstroke and Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor, in which the latter suggested teaming up and making "a league of [their] own." If the latest rumors from El Fanboy prove to be accurate, that team-up could have even bigger ramifications on the DCEU than we thought. According to El Fanboy's sources over at Warner Bros, "Legion of Doom is happening. Not an LOD movie, but building towards the team. Watch Manganiello. He has pretty much been blatant." Those sources then elaborated on just when we might see the next step towards a widespread villainous team-up:

They're working on something cool for SDCC [San Diego Comic Con] 18, related to LOD. They want to continue planting seeds and building momentum for the team. Things will be generally quiet on the DC front until Aquaman hype begins, but I can tell you that there will be another LOD tag at end of that.

If these whispers hold weight, this strategy would be an interesting twist on the MCU blueprint of building up towards the heroic Avengers team-up through bonus credit sequences. It will be quite some time before we know for sure what the DCEU is up to, however, since still-possible Justice League 2 -- which we don't expect to see in theaters before the decade is out -- because the Legion of Doom would be an ideal match to square off against DC's finest. It's also great to see that the decision makers behind the DCEU have learned the lessons of the (arguably) rushed Justice League team-up, choosing instead to take the time to introduce their big bads and give them some characterization before bringing them all together.

Should another Legion of Doom tease arrive at the end of Aquaman, that means that we'll likely see either Patrick Wilson's Ocean Master or Wonder Woman 2 get in on the fun? Who do you want to see up with the Legion of Doom? Sound off with your thoughts in the comments.
