Ok, but if it's all DC, and it is in fact coming back in some form, it just seems disappointing not to include it. I mean, do we really need a 35th slight variation on the Justice League? And do we need it more than a unique universe of characters that sold extremely well for years?
looks like Convergence is going to have a genuine impact on DC, Post-Convergence will not featuring the New 52 Heading, indicating a major effect as an aftermath:
Aside from that, we also know 25 of DC's current ongoing series' will remain relatively intact/unchanged after Convergence has concluded... So while DC will drop the "New 52" heading(about time, imo), I don't know if the changes gleaned from Convergence will be as major/all-encompassing as you might think. We'll see, though. /shrug

It's been awhile but, IIRC, its pretty much all in reverse. So the last scene actually took place first and so on. The exceptions are the interrogation scene (which takes place last IIRC) and the two page spread where 3 different times are shown at once (but they still are in the proper place).
That's true, but I still think this is the only case where we've seen two of the gentry invade one universe? (Aside from the first incident on Earth-7).
I suppose we've also more or less confirmed that they enter not just through comic-books, but also through dreams.
^ We know The Gentry are essentially a meta-textual virus who infect the very concept of 'story' by embedding themselves within it. If a character is then exposed to an infected story/comic, their entire universe becomes susceptible to an assault from The Gentry. Based on that, using a character's dreams/thoughts to segway between universes/comics is a logical step, imo.
Anyway, I can't wait for Ultra Comics next month. Given its massive in-universe importance, it should be an EPIC read.

There are so many of them. They're the horde sort of.
I had Sivanas down as either Demogorgunn or Intellectron, but Morrison spoiled it in an interview:
GM: I hope so. I hope the presence of The Gentry will be more clear. For instance, in the Captain Marvel comic we have dozens and dozens of Sivanas, so they can represent Demogorgunn, as they always appear as some kind of horde. Or Demogorgunn could be the zombies in issue #2 or the Superman robots in issue #3. Because they’re demons, they come in different forms in each world, so I do hope when it’s finished, yeah, you should be able to look back and find a lot of new stuff and hopefully, that’s way it’s been built.
