In the scan you showed, it had already escalated to across the backdrop of the entire page.It describes him creating globules of energy that would be the planets of a new universe, where he creates all the life. And had he not been stopped, a multiverse. As he mentions "Maybe one universe won't be enough" and later mentions making another one for the JSA, where he make them eternally young.
Across the entire comic they mention him" "creating a new universe" or "witnessing the birth of a new universe".
I'm not getting where you see that as just time manipulation.
He was just one Wrath of God shy of being the creator.
