tupka my understanding of the story from what ive read online is that the comic which is currently being released is one world and that when all the crap happens to superman in that world he decides to travel to another world to stop the same events from playing out there cueing up the start of the games story.

zerg that time travel convention is marvels i believe. it happened with age of apocalypse for certain since the earth-616 legion went back in time to kill magneto but killed xavier, his own father, instead, this led to the divergent timeline seen in age of apocalypse.

also that legion article probably makes it more confusing than it actually is. legion continuity is easy to understand in my opinion. there was one legion then they got wiped out by zero hour, then the legion that took their place were wiped out by another cosmic reboot 10 years later, then another team continued with the name for a few years before they were wiped out by infinite crisis and the original flavour came back, then final crisis happened and made all three teams canon. i dont think that hard to understand at all.

what is hard to understand is why they got rid of the multiverse in the original crisis in the first place, things got way more confusing for present day characters post-crisis than when there was a multiverse.
