At this point I'm just used to them snubbing Ralph for Plas just because he's more popular and "fun."
Half the time it's easy to forget Ralph and Sue are alive again.

It simply has to be Wally West. He knows about pre-Flashpoint continuity and he needed something to do those five or seven days or however long it was he delayed the revelation of himself as the killer
It's the Two Marthas. Jor-El came back as a villain, why not their moms?
I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea, but I really liked this issue. The pacing may be slow, but I think it works well for the kind of story it is. In the end, the goal is not to shut down Leviathan but to discover who he is. Considering the use of a very large cast of characters, Bendis and Maalev are doing an awesome work, to me at least. And that last page... man, it's awesome.

Lois Lane has assembled a secondary team of detectives, comprised of Zatanna, Deathstroke, COnstantine, Elongated Man, Harvey Bulloc and Renee Montoya as Question - plus possibly The Silencer, even if the later may in fact be working for Leviathan, it isn't really clear.
What I find really interesting is the fact that the comic claims that Leviathan is uses spatial/temporal manipulation, but based on how Superman described his skirmish with Leviathan it seems like Leviathan is actually manipulating gravity.
Either one or all of those abilities are being simulated by technology or we need to start looking at characters whose power sets include space, temporal and gravity manipulation. I can't think of any character whose power set includes all three. The only notable gravity manipulators I remember being in DC are Geo Force and a few characters from the LOSH.
When did Lois get all this clout that she is assembling teams of various heroes like that? Most don't even know that she is married/connected to Superman so how is she contacting these heroes and more importantly why are they agreeing to be her "team" and follow her lead. As far as they know she's just a renowned reporter.
I think that works in the context of the fill in issues where she was with him during the Rebirth run. As for the rest, there isn't really anyone there that I see as being above working with someone like Lois on something like this. spoilers:end of spoilers
Renee and Bullock are essentially lower tier than her, so if Lois Lane known confidant of Superman (at a minimum) came to you saying she was investigating some sort of conspiracy and wanted you to work on it, it's entirely reasonable they would. Same with Elongated Man and Zatanna. If that was Constantine, he'd be a little odd, but he'd likely go along with Zatanna and it seems like the type of conspiracy he'd get a kick out of. He's worked with ARGUS didn't he back in the original Justice League Dark series. And Deathstroke, well that'd only take money wouldn't it. But they actually have a connection in Rebirth from those two issues where she interviewed him and Waller was also involved.
