A Return To Earth-Flash 1 Ahead Of Justice League #75 (Spoilers)

Today sees the publication of Justice League Incarnate #5 and Justice League #73, and it is all tied into this and more. As well as going back to Barry Allen's world from Infinite Frontier #6, set up by the new (or the old) Pariah. There once was a time that Wally West was going to take that role as the multi-dimensional prophet of the DC Multiverse but it is another Flash he has been obsessed with recently.

Which had the Multiverse-2 from before the Crisis, feeding what came before, as well as an Ultimate Darkseid, Omega Earth being part of what came before the Crisis, and an impending Great Darkness Saga.

Pariah getting a bit meta, no longer apologising for past DC Comics like Dan DiDio might have been seen to have done, and embracing all in a Scott Snyder/Josh Williamson "everything happened, everything matters fashion". Or course, if everything matter, does anything matter? And if everything happened, did anything happen? And a new home for The Flash.
