I did not like the idea that John did actually try to shoot himself in the head several times, but the ring stopped him. I thought Cosmic Odyssey's original depiction of that was better, with J'Onn goading John angry to snap him out of it. Granted, Jefferson was hearing the story second or third hand, so that could explain the differences.
I guess the idea that Lynn was John's sister has been completely dropped. Probably for the best. I don't think it would have added much to this particular story.
