I'm only giving this reboot a couple of more years before DC goes back to the pre-Flashpoint continuity, and this new crap gets reassigned to one of the empty 52 earths that gets destroyed by Superboy-Prime during the next major Crisis level crossover.
When things finally settle on that side, it's because this whole freaking time Wally West has been trying to set things right.
Possibly with the help of Blue Beetle (using the excuse that the shadowy figure in an early Booster Gold comic was Ted). Donna, Linda, and Steph can help too.
But since it's all Barry's mess to begin with, we'll probably need the other Speedster to figure things out.
This reboot is beginning to seem more and more like a vague fog that temporarily obscures previous continuities before it blows away.
Sure they'll be some continuity that goes away--there always is. But the stories that really worked will eventually re-establish themselves in subtle ways first, and then probably bigger ways.
I gave up on this reboot months ago. It continually blows my mind how poorly thought out it seems to be. Is there a pointy haired (Dilbert) boss at the head of this?
At the DC Now panel (or one of the DC panels I attended, they're all running together in my mind because they all covered the same material) it was confirmed Raven will be showing up (in the Teen Titans series, iirc) this fall.
I'd like to point out that this contradicts information given in one of Snyder's early Batman issues where they flat out state that Drake was previously known as Robin and that he's now known as Red Robin.
