Ummm know one knows much about the Great Beast, but he kind of gave God a hard time, and isn't God as far away in power from Lucifer as Lucifer is from say me or you. Its all irrelevant as the only one who can think about taking the phoenix is J.P.
probably I try to keep comics and religeon seperate issues. Reading about sum one who is supposed to be responsible for all sin and evil in the world is not really my thing.
According to the cosmology of Lucifer, "Satan," is just a post. Lucifer isn't responsible for the evil in the world--he just takes advantage of it to suit his own ends.
from everything i have read on these forums and other Christian/Jewish sites about these 2 beings, The Great Evil Beast is God's (Yahweh) evil side/The End of All Things. The Presence is the opposite of The Great Beast, it is The Light/Hope/Life in the Omniverse. Before there was light there was darkness/nothing, that is supported in the bible and in DC. The Presence also has a female aspect called the Shechina, in the Bible the being that has this aspect is The Holy Spirit/"The Presence". The Holy Spirit/The Presence proceeds from God/Yahweh. When TGEB was awakened it wanted to know why it was here, where did it go??? it went to Heaven to ask God why it was here, during this time The Presence confronted TGEB and they both tried to destroy each other but realised if 1 of them did actually destroy the other then everything would not work according to Yahweh's plan so they stopped.. when someone is talking to The Presence they are indirectly talking to Yahweh. The Presence/The Holy Spirit is omnipresent. In DC Comics Yahweh has left his throne to Lucifer and Michael, wherever Yahweh goes The Presence also goes. also Gods wife is the Shechina and without Yahweh/The Presence she has no husband.
The Great Evil Beast is not The First of the Fallen, The First is Satan The Presence's first creation, he told The Presence it was wrong to make a race of beings free of will, after The Silver City was built The First came across The Presence again in Heaven and then God threw him out of The Silver City for even questioning him earlier. oh yah TGEB wins this fight.
no, god is just one face of the presence, hes been killed by saint of killers and almost by swamp thing, lucifer and micheal combined can beat god, but not THE PRESENCE, and TGEB is equal to the presence, he will surely kill micheal and lucifer
Well when I meant God I ment The Presence, it was The Presence who threw THRB down, so The Presence is the highest and most powerful.
TOAA=The Presence.
