What year are we up to?
What is the status of Sandman? I see a story that appears to take place in 1986 (by Doc). Has anything happened to him since then? When did all that vampire stuff take place?
Has anyone created an Earth 2 John Stewart? I am going to be creating a black super hero for the Outsiders and it occurred to me that an Earth 2 John Stewart might do the trick. It's not essential; I hadn't even considered the idea until today, but I thought it might be a nice tribute. He will NOT be a Green Lantern.

I don't know if an Earth 2 John Stewart as a major character is as interesting since either you hew close to his GL Earth 1 self or else he could just as easily be Bill Jones. I wouldn't mind seeing John in an Alan Scott story getting to use the ring briefly or as a supporting character somewhere as a look at how he develops differently, but for an Earth 2 black hero I'd rather see a new character or one whose counterpart on another Earth was more motivated to crime fighting (like Jefferson Pierce still teaching in the intercity but never getting the lightning belt or someone related to Mari McCabe using a slightly different Earth 2 Tantu Totem). John just seemed less likely to become a mystery-man if he hadn't been tapped by the Guardians. YMMV.

The latest E2 stories that are posted take place in 1988. Don't know about the Sandman. I tried to use John Stewart in an E2 story years ago, and at the time no one had used him. My story violated continuity, so it never happened. As far as I am aware, nobody has used him since.

The Sandman was rejuvenated by Morpheus. He is currently a member of the JSA, and still living with Dian Belmont (also rejuvenated). They have no children. There is an unfinished story called (I think) Quioxic Crusade, where Wesley starts looking for a successor.

Amazing Man had multiple grandchildren post-crisis. Perhaps another could also be introduced to our version of Earth-2. Or even a grandaughter, for that matter (Amazing Girl/Woman?)
