Well, you've certainly got me wondering about the identity of the 'Demon Hunter'. Australian, so maybe he's an original character of yours? Not too many Aussies in the DC comics of which I know.
Sort of sad that the Justice League was broken up - Superman settling on New Krypton, Batman becoming a recluse, etc. Of course, even sadder that the Earth was broken up!
You mentioned that Earth has been destroyed before in DC (or some versions of the planet anyway). Can you mention a couple of stories/arcs that did this? I remember one of the incarnations of the Legion of Super Heroes which had a string of 'flying cities' in space, so the planet must have been destroyed in that one. Hard to keep track of the multiple versions of the LSH. :-)

I'm no expert (my main comic reading days were the 1960s), but I believe some versions of the Earth were destroyed in the mid-80s 'Crisis on Infinite Earth'; I seem to remember hearing of others, but can't recall them off hand
Superman didn't stay with Kandor, he just recused the bottled city from his fortress of solitude 9that's where he kept it back when I read comics anyway -- Kandor was a Kryptonian city stolen I believe by Brainiac and shrunken down. At least back around 1970, that was where Supergirl had come from)
Rescued, that is, not recused -- sorry for the typos!
