Isn't that the whole point of parallel Earth stories ?

that part bothers me

Its an EXTREME version of the regular dcu from what I'm seeing. Batman that may kill and might not be bruce, Superman with a dead wife, Diana is the last amazon on a revenge mission, etc. Now we get a horrible looking Flash. Its got little tweaks but so far seems kinda 90's to me.
