From my understanding the New 52 is still the predominant universe right now, but Rebirth is reintroducing fan-favorite characters and concepts back into stories. So with everything that has happened post-Flashpoint ...

Where is the JLA and their members?

Was there a JLA, and has it since disbanded?

What is the New 52 JLA?

Is Lobo an angsty stick boi or he still the Main Man we love?

If Professor Zoom is outside time and space, has he ever been affected by one of the many Universe-changing events in DC's history (This can include multiple Zooms if they have the same immunity as Thawne)?

What are the new origins of Power Girl, if there are any?

is there ANY relationship between Martian Manhunter and the Green Lantern Corps Manhunters?

Is Ted Kord still cosmically scripted to bite the dust?

What are some well known points of pre-New 52 content that have since been removed from continuity or have yet to be reintroduced?

Is Harley an anti-hero or is she just an awful person who does whatever she wants
>>
One more:

Where is Cyborg Superman in the New 52?

Basically, DC is just cherrypicking previous continuity to what they see fit and/or to what old readers would like to see again. But the way it affects the universe varies with each title.

Flash's still pretty much the same even with the addition of the two Wallys. Dr Silas and Daniel West were recently mentioned.

Superman and WW are probably the ones having the biggest shake up.

When it comes to titles like Batman or Green Lantern, which were the less affected by the new 52, it's just business as usual.

Regarding JSA, it's implied that Johnny Thunder is responsible for their disappearance, even though Jay is currently trapped in the speedforce and Kent Nelson has been kicking around.

Thank you for mentioning the JSA, which is what I meant to say when I said JLA. Those questions were supposed to be about the old team that sat around the big table with heroes like Kent Nelson Dr. Fate and Alan Scott GL.

>Where is the JLA and their members?
>Was there a JLA, and has it since disbanded?
On Earth

>What is the New 52 JLA?
Superman, Batman, Cyborg, Aquaman, Hal, Wondie, Barry?

>Is Lobo an angsty stick boi or he still the Main Man we love?
We don't know yet.

>If Professor Zoom is outside time and space, has he ever been affected by one of the many Universe-changing events in DC's history (This can include multiple Zooms if they have the same immunity as Thawne)?
COIE and nu52 changed him but Thawne fucked with his own timeline so much that he got better.

>What are the new origins of Power Girl, if there are any?
One of four Kryptonian survivors from Earth 2

>is there ANY relationship between Martian Manhunter and the Green Lantern Corps Manhunters?
No? Why would you ask that?

>Is Harley an anti-hero or is she just an awful person who does whatever she wants
She is a shit. A SHIT!

>Where is Cyborg Superman in the New 52?
Currently part of the Superman Revenge Squad and trying to get Zod. He also remembers his pre-Flashpoint history.

>We don't know yet
Yes we do you fuckin ding dong, he's a member of the JLA and he's classic Lobo.


>>is there ANY relationship between Martian Manhunter and the Green Lantern Corps Manhunters?
>No? Why would you ask that?

The Manhunters were modeled after Martians.

1. JLA I believe disbanded once they got Adam Strange out of the Zeta Beams (but it is possible they could come back if a writer wanted to bother with them).

2. Nubo and Main Man are separate people. Main Man is now the one up front, while not killed off Nubo was left in a shrunk bottle under Larfleeze's hands after getting him from Brainiac.

3. Prof Zoom WAS affected by outside time and space (was why he could never kill Barry) until Flashpoint where (since he was outside the timestream during the dickery) he finally COULD kill Barry. But he ended up killed by Thomas Wayne. There is a new Thawne from a DCYou story but he was shown to be more influenced to gaining more power so not the Barry hating super speedster we used to love.

4. Power has returned to her origin of being Supergirl of Earth 2. She then got stuck on main Earth, built a fortune 500 company to make tech so she could return to her Earth with Huntress (Earth 2 Helena Wayne). She did succeed and you can read her Earth 2 adventures. During her leaving Earth 0, a huge explosion happened causing the super genius black teen girl who now owned the fortune500 company gain powers and become Earth 0 Power Girl (can read her adventure in DCYou teen Titans and Rebirth Deathstroke)

5. Manhunters (including the earth vigilantes who went by that name and the warrior title for the Martians) have always been influenced by the Manhunters. It hasn't been brought up in N52 but until shown otherwise I'm sure they're still following that canon.

6. Ted Kord has been around since Forever Evil. He plays a major role in the current Blue Beetle comic.

7. Too many to mention. Since stories take so long to produce and they usually wanna stay current year but not age the characters as fast, things often get rewritten to not happen or happen during a different decade (remember that Simpsons episode where Marge went to college and Homer was in a grunge band cause timelines now had teen them in the 90s? Something like that)

8. Harley is written more anti-hero these days in her solo ongoing comic but she is still part of Suicide Squad (likely her solo comic is noncanon if you care about that) so she can still be villainous if a writer wanted to go that way.

>>93161742
Cyborg Superman has shown up twice in Supergirl stories (once earlier in N52 and recent in Rebirth)
Instead of Hank Henshaw it is Zor-El, Supergirl's father. Who was found with the city of Argo after Krypton had been destroyed by Braniac and cyborized to be his slave/herald (as well as to look like Jor-El since Braniac likes Jor-El's sciency ass more).
>>
>>93162397
Rebirth Cyborg Superman is back to being Henshaw again.
>>
>>93162424
Ah I'm a few months behind, so that's good to know.

>>93162337
The problem is DC just won't let a decent idea die.
Some silver age writer liked the JSA so he let the two groups meet.
Some writers preferred the old origins that required a multiverse so we had Infinite Crisis bring it back.
They say "fuckit let's go as crazy as we can" so we had Convergence and between that and Multiversity pretty much all old ideas are kinda canon again in some small form or another.
