Post-Infinite Crisis
Following the Infinite Crisis limited series, much of the Legion's original history (which was rebooted following Zero Hour: Crisis in Time) has been restored. Pulsar Stargrave has been returned to continuity. His status as the future incarnation of the original Brainiac remains an open question, one even Brainiac 5 has yet to resolve. Pulsar Stargrave has returned to DC as a creation (a sentient Solaris Class Macroprocessor created when imploding a neutron star) of Lryl Dox aka Brainiac 3 in R.E.B.E.L.S. issue 18 July 2010.
