** Issue #4 of the main storyline {{spoiler|has the Flash outright state that even if they find the Reverse-Flash, figuring out what's been altered would be like "finding the right grain of sand in the ocean." The implication is that while they'll fix some things, others will be permanently altered.}} |

* [[Misblamed]]: With the sudden cancellation of the ongoing ''[[Justice Society of America|JSA All-Stars]]'', ''Freedom Fighters'', ''R.E.B.E.L.S.'', ''The Outsiders'', ''Batman Confidential'', & ''[[Doom Patrol]]'' monthlies, a number of disillusioned fans blamed Flashpoint and it's '''MANY''' miniseries as being responsible. ([[Scapegoat Creator|That or that Dan Didio cancelled them for no reason]]). The real answer was that while they got good buzz, the numbers for each book weren't enough to keep them in production. It was sort of like the ''[[Blue Beetle]]'' all over again. |

** The ending to ''[[Doom Patrol]]'' can't have helped: [[Ambush Bug]] convinced the villain to end his scheme by [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|telling him the book was getting canceled]] and that he wouldn't have time to see it through. We don't know ''exactly'' what he said, but "Flashpoint" and "Didio" came up. |
