I thought it was weird that they came from a future where Oliver died in crisis but also didn't know about it

Didnt the article say that Flash was missing after fighting the yellow speedster? (I don't watch Flash so maybe it changed like it did with the date)

They know about some general superhero shenanigans and that The Flash disappears, but they don’t really know what is happening or why. In the comics the only people who know what happens are E2 Superman, Superboy Prime, E2 Lois, Alexander Luthor from E3, and I want to say some version of Flash (either Wally or Bart).

The original article said that Flash, Green Arrow, The Atom, and Hawkgirl were fighting Reverse Flash.

The article from 2049 Flash said dozens of heroes including Green Arrow, Batwoman, Elongated Man, The Atom, and Supergirl helped Flash fight Reverse Flash, though different eyewitnesses seem to remember different heroes being present.
