Wait... if this is about the Flashpoint preview with the miscoloured XS, shouldn't this be either Retroboot or Elseworlds, not post-FP? - Reboot (SoM) talk page 14:07, 4 November 2012 (MST)

You're right, the scene we care about with XS takes place before the actual Flashpoint event, so this should be Retroboot. I'll make the change.

However, where do we draw the line for the beginning of Post-FP? Do the events during the Flashpoint series and associated issues (Such as Kid Flash Lost) fall into Post-FP or Elseworlds? For Pre-Crisis/Post Crisis, the boundary is issue #10 of COIE, when a new universe is created. The events of Flashpoint are similar to the Mordruverse, where there is one timeline, a brief series of events in a second timeline, and then a third timeline that is ongoing. So we have Retroboot, then the events during Flashpoint, then the New 52/Post-FP. I was considering the actual "Flashpoint" to be the moment at the beginning of the Flashpoint series, after which reality changes, so Post-FP would include most of the series. But as I think about it, both Flash and Kid Flash have memories of the Retroboot universe during the events of Flashpoint, whereas they do not remember the Retroboot when the New 52 begins. So now I can see Flashpoint as either being Retroboot or Elseworlds.

We currently color-code the Modruverse issue as Elseworlds, but the page is in category LSH v4 (Gloritherse) issues. It doesn't realy make sense to create a category "LSH v4 (Elseworlds) issues" for just one member. But Miscellaneous covers categories already exist for both Retroboot and Elseworlds. So, any preferences or thoughts for where the Kid Flash Lost series should go? I'm leaning towards Elseworlds.
