Jurgens reinforced that whoever is behind Rebirth is BEYOND Mxy. Wow.
He realizes that a power beyond Mxyzptlk messed with his life, but has no idea how far or drastic it was. As a result, he has an unsettled feeling that he’s trying to reconcile.

Mxy held the title for a while. Time to pass the torch, Galan. 🙂
Latest AC issue:
Doomsday is said to be Superman's most formidable opponent to date.
Eradicator is immune to telepathy/telekinesis.
Oz seems to shoot heat vision at Superman - SBP?
Superman has had ALL of his costumes - classic with trunks, Electric Superman, black costume, New 52 costume, Rebirth costume throughout his history. Basically, New 52 adventures now happened in a period of time somewhere after DoS/Imperiex etc. after the birth of Jon of this merged Supes history.

What does this mean for other people, though? Barry and Arthur for example? I mean, sure, Batman and GL was all canon anyway, but what about the others? And J'onn and Diana too?
Originally posted by -Pr-I think it will be treated on an individual basis. Diana is dealing with her history right now in Wonder Woman [...by completely shitting on Azzarello's run and saying it was all a lie]. Her origin is now that she was a normal Amazon, and she received her powers from the gods only when she came to our world after winning the contest on Themyscira [which makes sense, since she'd have an unfair advantage otherwise]. It's Captain Marvel-lite with power from the gods, but good enough.

Diana's first meeting with Superman/Batman will be retold in a few weeks
[because now that New 52 Superman is readjusted to take place post-DoS/OWAW, the first arc of JLA couldn't have been their first meeting], so we'll see how she stands in connection to them.
Batman, GL, and Supes, like you said, are basically in the same category - everything happened, with some tweaks here and there for it all to make sense [it's not as if Post-Crisis Superman himself didn't have a new origin every few years, completely contradicting the old ones, among many other continuity tweaks, but we still saw him as the same guy's history].
J'onn and Aquaman are still unknowns.

Ah, thanks for the write-up. I was sitting there reading your post going "Oh, Imperiex is canon again, but wait, wouldn't that mean Obsidian Age is too?"
Because Christ, if they give Aquaman back his post crisis stuff, that has strange implications on this board alone.
The Maker is back, you vile ingrates.
