What Are All Those DC Universe Easter Eggs in The Flash #21?

The Flash #21 introduced the “Hall of Lost and Found,” a vault filled with items collected during the Justice League’s various adventures.

As the name suggests, the Hall of Lost and Found is a veritable treasure trove of DC Universe artifacts and contains a ton of Easter eggs and references to past DC stories…all of which could possibly now be in continuity due to the recent tinkering with the DC Universe’s timeline.

So what the heck are all these items? Well, the crack team of ComicBook.com have come up with an (almost) comprehensive list of every DC Comics weapon, costume, item, and vehicle found in the Justice League’s vault. So look below and be sure to let us know if you spot any item we’ve either missed or misidentified!

1. The Green Bell of Uthool, the Silver Wheel of Nyorlath, and the Red Jar of Calythos, which hold the Demons Three.

2. Possibly the Universe Orb, used by Harbinger to record the history of the DC Universe.

3. Martian Manhunter’s original costume.

4. A Cosmic Egg, as seen in the JLA/Avengers crossover.

11. Voyager II

12. Clearly some kind of New Gods-style armor, although the exact character to whom it belonged isn’t clear. 

13. Sargon the Sorceror’s Costume. Sargon was an original JLA honorary member and participant in the E1/E2 crossover that explained the Black Canaries (like issue 220/221 or so of original run).

14. Azrael’s Costume. We’re assuming the sword is connected to the costume it’s next to. Otherwise there are a bunch of glowing or fiery swords it could be, including Son of Vulcan, Nightmaster, or Zauriel.

16. Hourman’s Timeship, used by the android Hourman to traverse time.

17. The Helmet of Nabu, worn by Dr. Fate

18. The Mega Rod, the weapon wielded by Big Barda

21. Doctor Destiny’s costume, with the Dream Ruby attached

22. Starman’s gravity rod

23. Lobo’s chain-hook

24. The H-Dial
