Delete - The entire actual concept of this list, as well as the selection of items that makes up the grouping, appears to be
WP:OR. I was considering the nom's suggestion of a merge, but actually looking through the items, I don't think there's really much here that would actually be appropriate for merging. The majority of the entries here are utterly non-notable, often only appearing in a single story. And many more are not even actual "races" (i.e. dinosaurs, vampires, etc.). There are only a very small handful of entries here that would actually be valid to be included in a general "List of fictional species" list, and the sourcing is so poor in general that I would not even recommending merging those entries anywhere. I have no problem with the creation of a general "Fictional DC species list" for notable entries as suggested, but I don't think this list would need to be kept for that, considering its poor state.

Delete per Rorshacma as
WP:OR. There isn't coverage that established this as a topic. I might possibly support a merged list if someone can find a scope that is verified in third-party sources and is also reasonably focused.
