Earth-27

Spared by the Adaptation in this series.
  • Sort of. Silver St. Cloud was killed when Onomatopoeia kidnapped her in the comics. In this universe, she was just placed into a coma with her fate unknown.
  • Lian Harper is also a case of this.
  • Harold Allnut isn't killed by Hush.
  • Ace also survives the E27 version of the events of "Epilogue" and forms a heroic Royal Flush Gang.
  • Kyle Rayner and Alex DeWitt merely broke up here instead of the infamous original version since this version is merged with Alix Harrowell/Bulleter.
  • Sarah Essen-Gordon survived Earth-27's version of the "No Man's Land" storyline. However, in this scenario she forced into a Sadistic Choice by the Joker to let her mentor, Dave King, die and make her watch. The alternative would've been a dozen kidnapped newborns.
  • Arthur Jr. is alive in this universe unlike his comic counterpart who was killed by Black Manta during the "Death of a Prince" story. Here, he's very much alive and well.
  • Roy has made plain his dislike of Ted's death pre-Flashpoint (and in many other continuities and adaptations that follow suit), and has spared him his oft used tragic end. He even renamed Jaime Reyes' heroic identity into Silver Scarab as a means of including the character without transplanting the name (Jaime inherits his moniker from a deceased Ted most of the time, but Ted's alive and active in Earth-27). Jaime's codename switch pretty much cements Ted's status as spared.
  • The Cir-El Supergirl doesn't go back in time to erase herself from existence.
  • Sue Dibny's infamous rape and death in Identity Crisis (2004) does not happen here. She was almost raped before Ralph saved her before both became metahumans by accident as a result of Gingo.
  • Gimmix and The Whip, short lived members of the Seven Soldiers of Victory, manage to survive the confrontation with the Sheeda, although Gimmix was tortured and Whip ended up transported somewhere else.
  • Most of the members of the Doom Patrol that died in the comics (Celsius, Nudge, Fever, Dorothy) are still alive here.
  • It's been confirmed that Darien Wolf won't die like in the comics. Same with the the Three Little Pigs, Gretel and Mr. Web.
