I am positive in the original DC Encyclopedia, Herald had an entry there...I am sure of it. I remember comparing pages and pages, his entries and Doom Patrol entries.

Spark - "In another timeline containing the Legion of Super-Heroes, Ayla Ranzz is known as Light Lass and possesses the ability to alter the gravity of objects. This ability is a new one, replacing her previous possession of lightning powers like those of her brother Garth." Star Boy - Updated to include all three Star Boys. Image unchanged. Brief mention of Starman VIII (See Star Boy) in the Starman piece. Strata - no change Sun Boy - new entry which lists the recent Action Comics version as the "second" Sun Boy and the 3boot as the third. Now even the writers admit they aren't the same. Image of 3boot. Suicide Squad features the 20th Century male Persuader as a member. Superboy - Updated double-page spread of Kon-El. Supergirl - did I forget to include her the first time? Superman - Mentions that the LSH were re-instated into his history. Also, note about Superman-Prime. Tharok - no change Thunder - no change Timber Wolf - no changes, including listing his first appearance as LEGION WORLDS #6. Maybe they got tired of updating towards the end? Time Trapper - new entry Triad - no change, yup they gave up! Ultra Boy - Added "Multiple versions of Ultra Boy exist in different timelines, but in nearly all of them he is Jo Nah of the planet Rimbor." Otherwise no change...lazy! Umbra - no entry! Wait! They remove Umbra, but don't give Shadow Lass an entry. But, Thunder and Magno, etc. are still in?!? What the sprock! Wanderers - Slightly updated to give a more vague future for the team. White Witch - no change Wildfire - No change beyond the First Appearance (back to the original). These writers phoned in the last few letters of the alphabet didn't they. XS - surprise...no change!
I also want to point out that they use Francis' art work for at least the Brainiac 5 and Saturn Girl entries (maybe more), but do not credit him as an artist. For shame. Not a quality job.
