In Infinite Crisis #7, Shikari encountered the DnA Legion, reuniting with "her" team. The Multiverse is back, and dimensions that used to exist are now back.
Now, it's hard for me to keep up, but does that mean the DnA Legion still exists out there? What about the pre-Zero Hour Legion? DC continuity makes my head hurt -_-;

They were on Earth #247. There's only 52 Earth's now.
Zero-Hour Legion is R.I.P.
Actually, we'll never know until a story tells us otherwise.

She found her team. Then that reality was remixed with all the others into New Earth. Then the 52 duplicates of New Earth were created, and then eaten by Mr. Mind to deviate from the original New Earth archetype. Many of the new universes resemble worlds of the old multiverse. Whether one resembles the post-ZH Legion's world remains to be seen.

They hint that a similar reality might exist in JSA when they mention an untold adventure called "The Legion of Three Earths". If you accept that Superman's Legion is one, WaK is a second and the Zero Hour is the third.

Incidentally the best part of having one of the "Three Earth" Legions turn out to be the post-ZH Legion would be that it won't be labeled "Earth-247". That designation still irks me.

The Legion of Three Earth's just sound that three different Earth's have the same Legion.
I agree it makese sense the PC Legion, the ZH Legion, and the WaK Legion. But still.
I wonder if they got rid of the ZH Legion cause of the recent death of a certain somebody.

What if the third Legion is not the ZH Legion...but the Toon Legion currently gracing Saturday mornings? If you think about it, PC, WaK and Toon Legions are the three versions most currently visible...
Still "Lardy" to my friends!

Hmm... that's an interesting theory, Lardlad!
Really, there's really nothing to indicate what the other two Legions are at all. All we know is that one is the Lighting Saga Legion.
Heck, the others could be the 5YG/SW6 Legions, or the original Adult Legion, or Superboy's Legion, or something completely new!

The way I figure it is, if DC wants them to exist, they'll exist; if not, not. The rest is just handwaving.

Matthew's pretty much right. There's no rules here, and they've pretty much said that. Any rule made will just be violated at a later date. I'm cool with that notion.

I agree. At this point, it's safer to say that any hard-and-fast rules (if there were any) would be trashed sooner or later; just remember all the definitive dictates we've seen sacked over the past 20 years.
The childhood friend Exnihil never had.

DC "continuity" makes my head hurt too. I'd rather not think about it.
