Yes. Mark Waid alluded that the Black Flash was another aspect of the Black Racer.

Black Flash is death of the speedsters.

Black Racer is the death of the New Gods.

Black Racer is the death of the New Gods.

And Death of the Endless is for everybody else.

Although in Season of Mists she's wearing a jogging suit while trying to round up all the souls that escaped Hell, so I like to think speedsters look at that and see the Black Flash instead.

When Rip Hunter showed up he said he'd seen Men of Steel die and Knight's fall. Batman and Superman eventually exist, though they could always spin it as alternate universe versions now that the multiverse is absurdly easy to travel through.

Yes. Earth-2 Wells came up with the plan to send Grodd there as a means of getting him off Earth-1, and that hopefully the other psychic mega-gorillas there like Solovar could rehabilitate him or at least keep him from hurting anyone else. Clearly that didn't work the way Wells intended it to...

Sounds like Nate and Ray. I know Ray doesn't call himself "The Knight" but power armor heroes are pretty much the knights of comic books and I don't doubt when they go to Camelot next week that King Arthur will knight the armor clad hero (hell he's already been a Samurai).

My all time favorite example of this is when Joe is trapped in a police car by a huge gang of supervillans and Barry streaks onto the scene, with all of the bad guys being carried off in about 2-3 seconds.

Joe gets out of his car looking around and the next scene someone is like "How are we going to stop all of these supervillans that are still on the lose?!?"
