So... Rebirth.

If I understand everything correctly:

At Flashpoint, the timeline was so vulnerable Dr. Manhattan stole 10 years from it. Including Wally, who was stuck in the speed force... somehow. Manhattan made everyone forget about things that happened before? I'm not quite sure. Why 10 years? It's only been 5 years since Flashpoint. Also, why is Wally in a Kid Flash costume when it's established even in his own account that he's been Flash for years?

Then, after Darkseid was destroyed at the end of Darkseid War, there was a flicker in reality that allowed Wally to break free from the Speed Force, and after the obligatory tour of the DCU, gets pulled out by Flash.

Apparent changes:
 * Something something Superman. More will probably be revealed soon, but if he's not parallel Earth version, what is he? Time clone?
 * Who is that guy with him anyway? Destiny?
 * The JSA was shunted... somewhere... by Yz after the HUAC meeting and apparently forgotten about. They were a covert team in WWII, so it's possible not many heard of them anyway. Seems like a fairly painless retcon.
 * Dick goes back to Nightwing, but the Spyral stint still seems to be canon.
 * Nothing too major about Ted Kord, Linda Park, Kaldur and Ryan Choi. Seem to be just reintroductions.
 * So... the Scarab is magic after all?
 * Saturn Girl... waiting for more.
 * There was a past incarnation of the Titans after all. With Donna. Because no re- or deboot is complete without messing up Donna. I'm not up to date on Titans Hunt to know about the others.
 * Wally is now Daniel's son. I hope they've got an explanation coming for the change in fatherhood. He was clearly introduced as Rudy's son.
 * Wally and Barry remember Pre-Flashpoint. Does that mean New and Prime are one?
 * Doctor Manhattan is on Mars, but what's the deal with Ozymandias?

I think it's clear we'll need to wait a while before we do anything drastic. Wiki-wise, the Superman mess and the Flash situation seem to be the biggest questions. Any thoughts/ideas?
