To my knowledge, Myx has never really been affiliated with the Secret Society. Why did he get a card on that team, then?
Also, if Earth 2 Brainiac is from Earth 2, why does he have Ultraman on his card? Unless they decided to give him the version of 'Earth 2', as in the term used in the graphic novel that re-introduced the Crime Syndicate, instead of him actually being the Brainiac from Earth 2. But wouldn't that be cheating?
Damn. How did I miss this tread until now? I love opportunities to point out when people are being nerdier than me.

Yes, according to the art on Deathstroke's card, it was Plas and not EM who was defeated in that great fight in Identity Crisis
You're being a nerd. Stop being such a nerd.

Look at Dr Psycho's card and you will see the good Dr grabbed his PINK costume that day.
A coloring error in true comic book tradition! Excelsior!

Hunter Zolomon was NEVER Professor Zoom. That was a completely different character.
As has been said by others, this was done for game reasons. Legacy's a part of the game now.

The Phantom Stranger was never in the JSA. JLA maybe, JSA never.
I still think this was done to make cards like Living Legacy more useful in certain formats.
Besides, Secret Society showed us just how little it takes to get a team affiliation.

Alexander Luthor did not wear the power armor, that was 'our' Lex.
DC Comics: You know that Lex Luthor running the Society? Well he's actually Alexander Luthor from Crisis on Infinite Earths.
Upper Deck: Okay, what's he going to look like in Infinite Crisis?
DC Comics: Well, he's always disguised as Lex while he's with the Society, so just use whatever old Lex art you have lying around.

Because it's an excuse to make a version of him in his silver age costume?
Come to think of it, I'd like to see Secret Society become the go-to team for goofy silver age villains. I can think of no other reason for it's continued existence in the game now that "Villains United" has pretty much completely replaced it in the comics.

Not really. Sure, Brainiac's Earth-2 isn't the same Earth-2 that the Justice Society is from, but almost all major teams in this game are composed of several smaller teams that all shared the same name, so this isn't really anything new.
The one that bugged me the most was Zatanna's flavour text.
I started to read it with each word backwards but the sentence forwards, like it's supposed to be, but quickly got realized it was all backwards and screwed up.

Since I have seen you post about Bizarro-Green Lanterns and Bizarro Aquamans... and have a link ready to art about them, at best its a tie. But to tie with you sir, is an honor.
