1----
2* CrackPairing: Pre-Crisis Supergirl and Dev-Em. A character whom Kara never met in canon and whose number of Pre-Crisis appearances can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
3* FanPreferredCouple: A large number of readers would rather see Kara Zor-El hooking up again with her traditional LoveInterest [[ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes Brainiac 5]] than with Dev-Em, a character who made few appearances prior to the ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths'' and is rather impopular among Legion of Super-Heroes fans.
4* HarsherInHindsight: Linda Danvers and her adoptive parents attend Clark and Lois' wedding. Fred Danvers is aware that many super-heroes are attending and jokes about figuring out their secret identities. Linda warns him about Franchise/GreenLantern mind-wiping whoever gets too nosy. The whole sequence is treated as a funny moment, written four years prior to ''ComicBook/IdentityCrisis2004''.
5* HeartwarmingInHindsight:
6** This timeline was born when an entity -[[ComicBook/TheSandman1989 Dream of the Endless]]- sent out an alternate ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'' to help abort the ''ComicBook/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths''. Flash-forward fourteen years and the same thing happens in ''ComicBook/{{Convergence}}''.
7** Bruce and Selina having their wedding one week after Clark and Lois is more heartwarming after their double date in ''ComicBook/DCRebirth'' Batman's 2017 book.
8* HilariousInHindsight:
9** Kara Zor-El and Dev-Em become lovers. Flash-forward several years and Dev-Em is one of her enemies in ''[[ComicBook/NewKrypton the main universe]]'' and ''[[ComicBook/ManOfSteelPrequel the DCEU]]''.
10** An alternate universe Saturn Girl is brunette, right like ''Series/Supergirl2015'''s Imra Ardeen.
11** Kara having a Legionnaire lover who wants her to move to the 31st century with him, several years before the ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague Unlimited'' episode where Kara fell in love with Brainiac 5 and moved to the ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes'' future.
12** Satan Girl planning to force entire worlds to worship her like a goddess several years before [[ComicBook/Supergirl2005 Supergirl's Sterling Gates' run]] reimagined the character like a death and love alien goddess.
13** A Kryptonian doppelganger of a hero of the House of El plus Mordru plus the Legion of Super-Villains come together to destroy the Legion? And the Supergirl of Earth-One gets to do some fighting? It kind of sounds like ''ComicBook/FinalCrisis: ComicBook/LegionOfThreeWorlds'' which came out nine years later, isn't it? Compounded by the fact Darkseid was the next BigBad.
14** Kara isn't sure what she wants to join the League. A few years later, Supergirl would join the Justice League in the comics.
15* NoYay: Satan Girl -who looks right like [[https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-F2ozXFjeODE/Wk-WvhS3kbI/AAAAAAAAxs8/fXutOBupogs3wFin0OrQFo0nrQmEVuQpACLcBGAs/s1600/artgerm.jpeg Supergirl]]- seduces [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/marvel_dc/images/7/7d/Mordru_002.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20090929154339 Mordru]], a bearded, wrinkled, old lecher.
16* ShipsThatPassInTheNight: Supergirl and Dev-Em, who never met in Pre-Crisis continuity, become a couple.
17* UnexpectedCharacter: This story features virtually every hero and villain created before 1985, as declining to introduce ComicBook/PostCrisis characters. So it was a bit of a shock when, after sixty chapters, a Post-Crisis character made it to the scene. And that character wasn't an obvious choice like Superman, Supergirl or Batman... but [[ComicBook/TheSandman1989 Destruction of the Endless]], a character notorious for his unwillingness to interfere in mortal affairs.
18* UnintentionallySympathetic: The story wants us to think Superman is being irrationally overprotective when he comes to blows with Dev-Em... no matter what Dev-Em acknowledged he looked to pick up a fight with him. No matter what Superman may feel less than thrilled to hear his cousin has become lover of a former delinquent who screwed him up purely for fun. No matter what ''Fanfic/SupermanOf2499TheGreatConfrontation'' hints their relationship will leave Kara broken-hearted.
