Cool, just tell me where to find this alternate explanation.
I think the "crescendo" he's talking about is the Timelines that were collapsing,
until the Prime Timeline collapsed.
This is definitely after Parallax erased that Universe I believe according to that scan.
What you're not getting is that when finally the prime timeline collapsed, is when issue 0 of Zero Hour starts, when ALL of the timelines are gone. Side-issues prior to this issue are the ones that show characters running amock through timelines, such as the Titans, Waverider, etc. During these issues, we'd see those timelines get wiped out.
And then there were none.
The crescendo/peak of the event CERTAINLY being the showdown with Hal. That point is pretty much inarguable that the peak of any story is when they meet the final bad-guy for the final battle of all reality.
It certainly couldn't have been after the effect, because his universe hadn't even solidified yet by the time Spectre and crew defeated him, and they absorbed his energy universe and replaced it before it even hardened into reality so to speak. It wasn't 'real' yet, only in energy form. Nothing involving timelines happened during this portion of the event, because no reality existed at the time.
For someone who claims to have these stories and read them, you certainly didn't understand them. 🙁
