Brainiac 5 remembers pre-Crisis DCU.

[theanswer]

In the previous Legion entry I posted I got into a debate with another poster over whether or not Brainiac 5 remembers the pre-Crisis DCU. This revelation occurred in a two page exchange of dialogue that clears up the origin of Bart Allen, XS, and the other Legions.

After hearing her true origin, XS asks the adult Brainiac why he is the only one who can remember these events. The second Brainy theorizes that the capacity of an adult Brainiac 5's brain may be enough to resist changes in reality, thus the original Brainiac 5 is the same person from pre-Crisis continuity only with a new body.

All of his current plans as of late were drawn up from his calculations of future events before the first Crisis occurred.

Also, it is explained that both Legion reboots existed before the Crisis and all current continuity crossovers were trippy time traveling events that took them to a future that only existed in the past.
