User blog comment:Hatebunny/The DCnU, and why we have not made new pages/@comment-26373303-20120518144454/@comment-2163167-20120618154200

This is the biggest sticking point for me as well. Technically, none of the Wildstorm characters who have been ported over are the same as the ones who existed before because...well, they've been smooshed into an entirely new reality. And thus far, nothing seems to have come over fully intact. That would be less of an annoyance if it weren't for the fact that (A) that Earth-50 tag is really confusing and (B) it sets a huge roll of information before I can get to what the current incarnation of Warblade (for example) is up to, or even looks like.

There are other examples here and there of DCU characters who were completely rebooted as well, but there are enough from the Old New Earth who were barely touched at all (Hal Jordan, Batman, etc.) that I can understand wanting to maintain that timeline as relevant, if only because it saves the headache of having to remake a bajillion new pages. But in this one particular instance, I think that new character pages would be relevant.
