"I have a thought: we just go rescue Laurel, Rex Tyler, Snart, Ronnie Raymond, Anna Loring, and Jax's dad, and tell history it can bite me. Who's in?"

I dunno— it's sort of an awkward conversation to begin with anyone involved, isn't it?

If it had been Sara rather than Laurel who'd stayed dead, they could have revived the identity of a character who debuted in Sensation Comics #1 alongside Wonder Woman. http://www.comicbookbin.com…

But no parent is going to look at his brilliant, accomplished daughter (MIT Ph.D. in Nanotech and crack gadgeteer under alien invasion pressure!) and expect or hope for her impact to be minor.

Though even if they keep that in continuity, DC's had like three Jim Corrigans, at least two of whom were hosts for the Spectre.

Supervillains are always more effective with the same power set than superheroes are (at least until the climactic final battle). But it is striking given that the Legends include one of Barry's own villains.

I was at a party where an acquaintance worked herself up into quite a rage ranting against dolphins over that. (There were no dolphins in attendance, so I don't remember how it came up.)

The Legends could just show up and decide that he's yet another temporal anomaly they have to let stand because they know him personally.

I sort of want to see Rip claiming proprietary rights, only to realize he doesn't have a leg to stand on. "How dare you hijack the timeship I stole fair and square?!?"

Only magic/mystic superpeople and those particularly susceptible to magic. But since that covered Superman, Green Lantern, and the Spectre, the rest could be countered by just having Axis supers to stand off the Allies.

I thought the Vanishing Point was in the timestream rather than space, but I could be wrong.

Especially a young guy whose previous hobby was street racing. At least now he has fast healing and access to high-tech assistance.

Clearly it's subtly foreshadowing the musical crossover.

If we get the Tornado Twins, can we just have them as active superheroes in the future instead of pointlessly killing them off? (Not the greatest sin of the v4 Legion of Super-Heroes run, but one of the most gratuitous.)

I guess it depends how safe it is to have it sitting in a government storage facility (maybe next to the Ark of the Covenant?) or floating in space for months or years.

That's pretty much par for the course for interstellar invasions of modern Earth. Fortunately, villains almost never just repeat a plan that almost worked after tweaking the reasons it didn't.

It would be funny if Ray's cousin is adopted, and is Karen Starr.

FWIW, comics Power Girl's civilian ID is Karen Starr. (At least for a while she had a tech company called Starrware.)

Comics Ultraman was from Earth-3, an evil opposites world. (Or good opposites, in the case of Alexander Luthor.) Power Girl was from Earth-2, where the Golden Age heroes debuted during or before WWII (though she didn't arrive on Earth till the 1970s).

If I had to give up two shows, the ones left would be Supergirl and LoT. (Which shocks me considering where the latter show was last year.) But I suspect it's not the sole CWverse show for many viewers.
