DC has had continuity issues for some time now and one way DC hopes to fix it is with Countdown. We've already seen as they weave in the big events to give us an idea of how it fits in with the DC timeline. This week we've got the best Crazy Ass Rumors that pertain to DC's Countdown.

* Barry Allen returns as The Flash, while Bart goes back to being Kid Flash.

* Jason Todd wasn't suppose to die, but at the same time Jason Todd wasn't suppose to become the Red Hood either. Jason will be replaced with a different Jason Todd that has grown up to become Red Robin.

* At the end of the first Crisis, Superman saved Lois, Alexander Luthor, and Super-Boy Prime. Countdown will reveal that he also saved Jimmy Olsen and that's the Olsen we've had on New Earth of the longest time.
