    There are some characters like Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and The Flash that have a clear time/book where their post crisis  continuity begins.  
     
    But, Green Lantern mixes me up a little.   
     
    Although Hal Jordan does have a definitive post crisis oigin told in the limited series "Emerald Dawn" in 1989 that leads into a clear post crisis Green Lantern (Vol. 3) title that begins in June 1990, my conundrum comes in the Green Lantern (Vol. 2) title which runs from 1960 (pre-crisis Hal Jordan).
     
    In Green Lantern (Vol. 2) , from issue #194 to 198, it's a "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover. Now, logically, everything after the COIE crossover should be post crisis. Events such as "Legends" and "Millennium" take place before the title is canceled, which are events defined as post crisis.    
     
    So, if anyone can help me clarify this, the Green Lantern title (not just the character) begins as post crisis starting from Green Lantern Vol. 2 #199 right after the "Crisis on Infinite Earths" crossover (#194-198). 
     
    Anything following that is placed in the post crisis continuity. 
     
    Do I have it right?
