Metamorpho might, since he is a magically empowered being, and as we saw
from Rex's frequent resurrections, and the case of Urania Blackwell, they
are very hard to kill/die.

Hawkman and Hawkgirl are perpetual reincarnations so they might have a
future as heroes.

Phantom Stranger is unlikely to be released from his penance, whatever that
might be, so he's a "probable"

Sentinel/Alan Scott/Green Lantern's precise nature is currently vague as he
is sort of sentient energy.

Sand is not human and is silicon in nature

Lobo has some form of regenerative power, but I don't know if it lends
itself to immortality, though Slobo and his group might suggest otherwise.

A lot of the New Gods might be around if Darkseid is. In the original Great
Darkness Saga Izaya states that the New Gods "moved on", but we don't have
much evidence one way or the other post Zero hour.

Shade, who is a somewhat amoral diletante immortal (Rather than a
straightforward villain) is known to be active in the 31st Century (as seen
in Starman)

Superman, of a sort, appeared in DC 1 Million, which is something like the
900andsomethingnth century, but not via normal means, but it's implied he
has descendents to keep the line alive....

And, FWIW, as and when you hurt my feelings son, I'll let you know. :)
