Sorry 'The Flash,' this is still the best DC superhero team-up.
The Flash expands DC Extended Universe, bringing in time travel and different timelines as they all crash together. Meanwhile, two Flashes , Batman , and Supergirl work together to stop Zod's invasion. Team-ups have a rich history in superhero stories, including everything from a pair of notable characters working together to the formation of a larger team. The Flash creates an ambitious team-up in the doomed fight with Zod, but it's far from DC's best.
While the main battle in The Flash includes Batman and Supergirl, Flash is undoubtedly the main character. This is understandable for a film about him, but it's not the best format for a true team-up. Barry has all the emotional beats in the story. He rewrites the past to save his mother, and he realizes the fight is doomed, and he's the one who has to fix it. Though Batman and Supergirl are important, they are not the main characters.
Young Justice can't expand on every character they introduce. Instead, it brings in other content as canon-adjacent material, connecting Young Justice to familiar iterations of characters. The show's creator Greg Weisman, describes Green Lantern: The Animated Series, Catwoman: Hunted, and DC Showcase: Green Arrow as adjacent to Young Justice, meaning that similar events happened in Young Justice's world without committing to total accuracy.
