Take it for what it's worth but in his Newsarama interview Levitz gives us a pretty good idea how many years have elapsed since we last saw "his Legion."
Quote: "I mean, I could have a handbook showing — I said it was 26 — so I could just say, "Here are the 26 and what I envision about the order in which they joined and the continuity of the last five years since the last time thing(s) went on. . But a little bit of decoding is fun."

Minor updates for Legion of Three Worlds--basically non-retcon events that needed to be mentioned. Deaths of other Legions' members, name of Saturn Queen, Garth's body in the reboot. Also noticed that Sarya was named, which means that the Emerald Empress in L3W is not the new one.

While we're at it, does anyone know what the deal is with the destruction of all the Green Lanterns in Legion of Three Worlds? It wasn't done by Superboy-Prime (who killed 55 in the 21st century, not the whole sert in the 31st) and the Legionnaires react as though it's a recent event.

Added the revelation that Daxamites live hundreds of years (Superman Secret Files 2009). Amazing how I keep finding this stuff.

This event hasn't happened yet in regular continuity. I think this was meant as a set-up for a future Geoff Johns GL project.

Rokk was talking about his mother in spirit. Just because she's dead that doesn't mean he doesn't feel that she can't forgive him. I know from experience that your relationship with your mother doesn't end when she dies. Since my mother's death, I have asked her to forgive me for things I've done both before and after she died.

As EmeraldEmpress pointed out on another thread
If the Magic Wars happened...the Sorceress World was destroyed. Where are now Mysa and Blok?

Addressing only continuity issues with the most recent #6: 1) First of all, while I like jimgallagher's perfectly reasonable explanation for it, I have to say that for the comment from Cos about his mother, it feels like he (Paul Levitz) just forgot that she was dead. That issue was a loooong time ago.
Goes to show it's important for us readers to help PL out and give him feedback... if I am right, then once he realizes the error, I'm sure he won't exacerbate the problem further, and then jim's explanation can stand.... but if 5 issues later she actually showed up, well, then, forget it.
2) A big one I'm surprised no one else has mentioned: we have another Chemical manipulator from Phlon?!?... but as I recall, CKing's powers were unique to him (he was "a mutant"), not shared by everyone on his planet. Unless the new guy is somehow a descendant, the coincidence is hard to believe (...well, unless you explain that all Phlon-ians have a dormant "chemical manipulating" gene that is easily turned on by mutation, and/or that there is some reason the Phlon-ians are being selected for that trait, so it is a form of evolution.)
3) FINALLY, regarding the old Karate Kid continuity issue... I have to admit, I'm behind on some of my comic reading (i.e. I've only skimmed Countdown) and even more so on my remembering , but doesn't the 5-word phrase uttered in this issue by Jeckie, "pulled from some parallel world", constitute the explanation that has been missing for who the KK who died in Countdown (and I guess appeared in Lightning Saga) was? Still doesn't say WHICH parallel world...

Man, you're stingier than Mrs. Krinn on the forgiveness.
Lighten up. This is a comic book. Save your venom for something more vemon-worthy.
Just as Rokk's mother's "voice" prevented him from murdering her killers, it is now making him feel responsible for his brother's death. Is that such a stretch?
