then how the hell was he show alive in the stone age in the next issue? how is he alive in his new series that takes place during different points in time?
Darkseid didn't use the omega
beams on Batman. He used the omega
sanction.
The omega sanction causes the being it strikes to be reborn countless times, with each life being more tragic and hopeless than the last until their very soul breaks:
That should answer your first question.

second, does this page mean that the new gods of the 5th world will look the same as they did before?

No. That panel was meant as nothing but a tribute to Jack Kirby and the former New Gods... The Gods of the 5th world will/do look much different than their 4th World counterparts. In fact, something many people don't know is that the shaded figures standing in front of Highfather, Barda, Lightray, etc. in that scan are supposedly new designs for them based on Morrison's Seven Soldiers series -- but who knows if that will pan out?
Further proof that the Gods of the 5th World will/do look different than before can be demonstrated by simply looking at Metron and the Black Racer in FC. Additionally, the 'Super Young Team' (ie. these guys):
Were officially recognized as the new embodiment of the Forever People in FC #7, when Nix used the word "Taaru" and summoned them against Mandrakk. They also drive around in a levitating vehicle dubbed the 'Wonder Wagon' (symbolic of the 'Super-Cycle' the Forever People rocked.)

On a separate note, FC (the last issue in particular) had several, easily missable, tributes/homages.
