To stop him, the speedsters worked together to force the mad Kryptonian into the Speed Force though Jay Garrick could not maintain his speed.

(Dark Nights: Death Metal Speed Metal v1 #1) In the aftermath, the Park-West family began to rebuild their lives. Jai and Irey were traumatised by their experiences and had recurring nightmares, but these subsided as the family gradually returned to normal. (The Flash v1 #768)
Later on, her school received a new transfer student that joined her class with this being red-haired girl named Maxine Baker.
