Notes
- The events in the present Earth 0 take place around the first months of 2023.
- However, both Helena and the temporal settings still refer to "Now" as 2022, the original setting of The New Golden Age #1.
- According to this issue, after the unknotting of the timeline and the rebirth of the Multiverse, the Zero Hour event happened in 2013.
- Similarly, the events of Doctor Fate (Volume 4) #1 are implied to occur in early 2021. However, this is obviously a continuity error as Khalid Nassour should have become Doctor Fate for the first time many years before even the the last Metal War.
- This issue is reprinted in Justice Society of America: Gold Edition #1.
