Universo did mention something about Rond's son. Right after Rond was killed.

I also don’t recall any mention of Drura joining the Legion in any of the stories. I wish it were so but we can’t presume that happened. All we know for sure is Myg, Lydda and Yera all joined in the gap.

Rokk explained to Garth in Lo3W that he had split with Lydda so that Garth and Imra could have a real life.

Drura said in the Dr 13 series that she had been in the Legion but had been kicked out. I suppose it depends whether that series is canon.

Baxter #15 – Brainy mourning Supergirl

Up in the air
Supergirl – for all we all we know the Kara from the Silver Age and beyond we’ve all always read about is in fact this current Supergirl. You may not like that explanation, but that could be what DC has planned. Again, you can say this is another continuity if it makes you feel better, but it might mean this version of the Legion still has all those old Supergirl stories happen to them (albeit with this Supergirl). They just haven’t happened to her yet. But they may have happened to Brainy and the rest of the Legion. We can’t really presume either way or the other until we get any type of evidence.

Looks like this is going to be addressed in some manner in Supergirl # 52!

The Superman/Batman team-up previewed on that page looks very much like they are fighting a Durlan on the cover.

Set, I'm pretty sure that's still the Invasion (time wise) story still.

I wonder how much people would flip out if Paul's first issue began with the words Five Years Later...? [Big Grin]

Re: Your List CK - I haven't read past like issue #40 or something of the Baxter run so I could be wrong about this but weren't Vi/Ayla a TMK/5YL-only thing?

And it so, not something potentially removed from continuity since they just haven't happened yet?

Yeah, Vi/Ayla happened in the TMKverse. They were shown to be becoming close friends during Levitz run, though. You could read more into that, but I think Levitz said once that it wasn't his intention.

Sounds like Brainy thinks this Kara is his Kara, but I'm probably reading too much into that solicitation.

Yes, Universo says that Rond should have joined him, that they could have ruled together. Perhaps his (Rond's) son will fare better.
That's in Lo3W #2, just after Rond is killed.

[sulks] I want Rond back.

Brainy doesn't need any more neurosis. Somebody needs to drag him out of the Time Institute for a beer now and then.

I agree that most of the TMK things won't happen, except that the Mysa rescue with Rond dying, which is the first major arc of the 5YL, DID in Lo3W.
And as I and a few other people have said, Rond has a child, like he did in TMK.

I always disliked Laurel Kent and loved Laurel Gand, so that's why I'm holding out for seeing her again.
Rond's 'woman' could be Kent, for all we know yet.
sigh

We can assume that the twins are born but we haven't heard anything about them and Tribulus in .REBELS, may make the Darkseid curse come out differently.
Maybe not.

I thought someone mentioned that Brin and Ayla might be the couple that broke up, so I said that they should have already done that.
I don't doubt that they're finished.

Good job trying to iron out the small glitches/questions, Cobie!

Newsarama has the April solitications for the Superman family titles up, and the write-up for Supergirl should provide for plenty of discussion here.

On Ayla and Brin, even they are back together now that doesn't mean that the breakup didn't happen. Maybe they just drifted back together over time?

While there are plenty of weird discrepancies with what Johns introduced into the preboot Legion, I don't have an issue with believing that it still picks up after Magic Wars. In a comic book universe, things are constantly being changed..

While I'm not really wild about Val being brought back to life (just so they could kill him again), Wildfire living in Red Tornado's body (which is just odd), Tyroc and Quislet being back on the team with no explanation (albeit missing in time), etc etc etc....all of these things I'm happy to accept as having happened (or having been discovered) in the intervening time since Magic Wars.

I do think it would be cool if we saw some subplots leading towards stuff that happened in the 5YL Legion; I don't think storytelling should be hamstrung by it, but it makes for some nice easter eggs if we hear about things in the background every now and then like political hostilities between Braal and Imsk, the introduction of Probes, etc...
