Flashpoint Featuring Hawkman... and Hawkgirl?!

One of the freebies from this past weekend's Free Comic Book Day was a Green Lantern movie preview book which features a preview of Flashpoint #1.  And who is there front and center but Hawkman and Hawkgirl!

...

Uh, what?

It's clearly the Modern Shiera (look at the harness straps across her chest), so what's the deal here?  Is Shiera back already, or does this take place during Brightest Day, or at some indeterminate point in the future after she is resurrected?  Or is this all part of the wacky timeshifting which seems to be the whole kit and kaboodle of Flashpoint?

Yeeeargh, too many options!  We'll have to wait and see what this all means, I guess.

Thanks to Bearer of the Honor Wings Shag for the image!

Thanks for the shout-out. I enjoyed issue #1, but it felt like a suped-up "What If?". I guess the subsequent issues will tell us more. I don't think Firestorm really plays a role, but I believe Hawkgirl does pretty heavily based upon preview art.
