the ending of the show was he was an autistic child imagining what was going on in a snow globe. it ended in his apartment with two of the main characters of the show being his father and grandfather and him staring into the snow globe.

The official line is that it's only the last episode that was in his mind, but obviously we're gonna run with it if we can.

Fun Fact: The person who first popularized the concept of the Tommy Westphall Universe? None other than Dwayne McDuffie, creator of Static Shock.

The thing about that theory is that it was started by comic writer Dwayne McDuffie to basically explain why you shouldn't worry too much about continuity.

pretty sure the first time that kind of ending was used was in An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge

I mean, it can just be explained as "he imagined tv characters in his dream as well" or "the people in his dream are real people and their real versions are the ones appearing in collabs". The only way this won't work is if Tommy himself made appearances, which, why can't it also happen after he wakes up?
