Flamebird ended up on Earth-2 because in pre-Crisis history her Auntie was Kathy Kane, aka the Earth-2 Batwoman.
I have to admit that I thought IC 5 was the weakest issue so far. It was still good but just not AS good as it's been. I'm not a fan of Jerry Ordway's art. The green car/smash page was a GREAT homage to first Superman cover eons ago but I really wanted that fight to be extraordinary. The range and scope of the forces at play needed to be HUGE and instead it looked pretty typical.
I did like the leadership role that Nightwing is taking on in the fight. I'm happy to see the Flash come back. (Although they never did say that was Wally, did they? I need to recheck the costume.) I'd have liked to have seen WW-2's role take on a larger scope; at least going to the battle with Diana to talk some sense into her Superman. I think that would have made a touching scene as they reconnect over Lois' dead body. I think they missed a huge opportunity there.
