I couldnt find anything like that stated. Thats all assumption, extrapolation based on whats actually there. The sword expanded his senses he became omniscient but far from on a par with Dcs supreme being and its not stated that the voice was the Presences. Come on i thought JLAKMC was all about putting an end to this type of thing. 🙁

He wasnt really in the issue at all, nothing really happened in the issue it was just a scene setter. At the end Apocalypses modern day (well Victorian cos thats when its set) descendants wake him up to save mutantkind from Dracula and his minions. There was a flashback however at the beginning where War takes out Vlad(pre Dracula) on the battlefield. Buy it if youre an apocalypse fan. If youre just mildly interested in the character then going just by the first issue i cant recommend the series yet.
nah im interested in good showings not this jobbocaypse they have been shoving down peoples throats wanna see the apocaypse who beat exodus, mags, was beating loki, stalemated high evolutionary, beat hulk, laughed off black bolts scream. i mean dieing by a black bolt whisper thats just an insult it really is.

rereading the issue, the allusions are pretty clear, but you're right -- there is no on-panel evidence saying it was the supreme being that spoke to superman. the description of what was happening to him was reminiscent (to me) of thanos when he retrieved the hotu though -- he basically was in the process of becoming one with the universe. the mention of genesis and the big bang at the start, and the words 'let there be light' -- spoken of course by god in the bible, all allude to the fact that the voice supes heard was likely meant to be interpretted as the voice of god.
but, as that was the sword's only appearance, and he really didn't even use it for anything, it's tough to get too carried away by it. i'd forgotten how sily some of those old stories could seem!

Thanx for the input Leonidas. Very objective, youre a true example of what JLAKMC stands for. 😉

Regardless, all the stuff about the sword was extrapolation and speculation. Nothing was stated on panel with regards to God or the power it gave to him other than the fact that it expanded his senses he became omniscient.

True , but doesn't omniscient's go hand in hand with omnipotence ?

Nope look at Captain Marvel and his cosmic awareness his "omniversal telepathy". Is he omnipotent? Eternity is said to be omniscient, is he omnipotent? ❌
Indeed , but supes may indeed have some variation of reality warping powers . Considering that it even said on panel that he had hundreds of new powers.

It is said on panel he becomes part of everything. I think thats as conclusive as anything you have provided for many arguments 😕 Which means it's not conlusive at all 😱
