I suck and fail at remembering the whens of events, just that they happened, and my tiny GL collection is out on loan. But it was back during Kyle's daddy issues, which I'm 99.9% sure happened prior to the Crisis and therefore prior to the Happy Verse taking place. . .

I just don't know if the Guardians counted as "dead." Hmm. They count as "greatly exaggerated," at the very least, though, I suppose.
