Well, one would hope that [spoiler] it would be like Hypertime or the original Byrne Superman reboot where the writers could pick and choose what was and wasn't in continuity, as long as they tell good stories, BUT... I don't see that coming.
I have also heard terrible whispered rumors of 'Ultimate' versions of Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman, so I think new restarted universe is where this is headed.
Please keep in mind though, I am the biggest fan of continuity and shared universes there is, so while the original Crisis was for the most part a good story, it broke my heart and hearalded the end of my love for DC continuity.
Even if most of DC's editorial and writing staff couldn't understand the concept of parallel Earths in 1985, me and my friends easily grasped it at five back in 1969. So there! [/spoiler]
