We're used to the likes of Al Ewing, Mark Waid or Geoff Johns as the kind of people who rewrite the storytelling rules of shared universe continuity,

Heroes In Crisis #9 Wally West's dead body, that we saw draped over the dead body of Roy Harper in Heroes In Crisis #1 was, it seems, placed there by his future self after killing an even more future version of himself, and then living those five days until he became his even more future[...]
