In the Green Lantern titles the conflict between the Durlan leadership of the United Planets and some of the old core GLs continues: Since the disappearance of the Guardians, the GL Corps has come under the authority of the UP. The Durlan leader Lord Premier Thaaros who is also the current President of the UP has reorganised the Corps, quarantining Sector 2814 including Earth, sending old core GLs on apparent suicide missions, and recruiting new GLs whose loyalty is to himself. He has been arranging for the destruction of the all the Central Batteries of the various Corps and taking over their worlds by force using his GL Corps. When the old GL resistance took evidence of his misdeeds to the UP Council they found that Thaaros had replaced the Council members with other Durlan family members. In a recent flashback story the Durlans we saw were mostly in the Rebirth Legion form but they also assumed other forms including the traditional antennae form.

In the light-hearted back-up story to Wonder Woman 12, The "Mongul of Infinite Earths" is encountered on the world Gifitz-3, which appears to a combo of Giffen and Levitz. The world is located in the Quaridan Galaxy in U-4814, but I don't know if those are related references.

ugh, hate that implication also interesting dialogue, making it seem like know each other on a personal level (using each other's real names)!

You guys are forgetting something about Mordru killing and absorbing people though: it allows those characters to come back easily. They aren't really "dead" they were just absorbed. All it takes is a writer down the line somewhere who wants to do it.
I'm pretty sure he still has E-247 Kinetix down his gullet too. Not the 16-year old Mordru we currently see, but the 31st century adult. So Zoe could come back easily too.

Well, until a character gets un-absorbed it's all just speculation. Obviously, any comic book death can be undone. It's not just the sacrificing of other characters to prop up Mordru, however. It's also the problem of playing fast and loose with continuity, since one of the characters is canonically dead in pre-Crisis Legion continuity, killed by a completely different character.

And, Ibby, I also thought the familiarity between those two characters was odd.

It's also the problem of playing fast and loose with continuity, since one of the characters is canonically dead in pre-Crisis Legion continuity, killed by a completely different character. totally agree. I never bought into the "well that character can come back" argument. Until it happens, the character is dead, and one never knows how long that character will stay dead!

Over on the CBR forums, DC writer Geoffrey Thorne (who posts as Redjack there) posted some fan content for Tyroc that he'd worked up. (Link goes to his DeviantArt not to the post where I saw it originally.) It's a mini-comic, in the style of Drake's 'Death of a Legionnaire,' but set in the cartoon continuity and introducing Tyroc.

The preview has me really excited for the actual issue on Wednesday (especially the appearance of the original [sort of] you-know-who with the Legion). Loving the two page spread of the obligatory JSA-Legion fight, but can’t quite tell which JSAer it is that’s taking out Sun Boy with one punch. Any guesses?

Wildcat/Yolanda, perhaps? guessing from the hair and the powerset thanks, Set!
