'Young Justice: Outsiders': There's a cryptic message hidden in the titles of season 3 and it may spell doom for our superheroes

DC's 'Young Justice Outsiders' may not have the series ending that fans would love thanks to the cryptic message hidden in its titles.
PUBLISHED FEB 18, 2019

The first half of DC Universe's 'Young Justice: Outsiders' has built each episode upon each other. From the conflict and the general narrative, the 'Outsiders' have followed a pretty linear path attempting to track down the meta-human traffickers and rescue captured teens from the malevolent forces of evil. We also have all the antagonists working together in tandem, in order to serve a much bigger cause that is set by the big bad Darkseid himself.

But while fans were engrossed in the amazing story arcs of their favorite characters, and simultaneously getting to know more obscure characters, the writers of the show decided to slip in a simple coded message into their titles. Taking the first alphabet of each of the series 26-strong episode titles, we get the apocalyptic (pun intended) message of "PREPARE THE ANTI-LIFE EQUATION", the formula that our grey-baddie is constantly in search of.
