Mxy shouldn't be used in VS threads IMHO.
he is a casual universal buster (not a casual multiversal buster since WF is non canon) but dream of the endless is also casual universal buster/creator.
in a JLA story arc materioptikon (which was created by dream) was used to create several alternate universes. i think he should be around mxy's level.

Superman: King of the world is an elseworld too. Its canon to superman though since it was referenced in a canon comic. Same with WF. Galan proved it canon a long time ago.
do you mean the reference in emperor joker part 1? this isn't enough to prove it's canon. superman: king of the worlds at least happened in alternate reality, but WF didn't even happen in an alternate reality

There are several references. Reference of COIE makes WF alone canon since there was only one COIE. KOTW happened in mainstream continuity just like WF.
what has COIE have to do with WF?
and no WF didn't happen in mainstream continuity, there's a reason why it's called an elseworld.

i know it did, but i was asking what does this have to do with it being canon?
apart from the emperor joker story arc (which has a really weak reference to WF and can't be taken as solid proof) WF doesn't have references from canon issues (at least not to my knowledge)

no, if an elseworld references to COIE it doesn't make it canon, where did you get that from? the only thing that makes an elseworld canon if the elseworld itself is referenced in a canon issue. that's a fact.

...And the 5th dimension would be even larger still. Just some food for thought.

The DC Animated universe (DCAU):

Various Elseworlds stories such as this:

And miscellaneous pasts, presents, futures, alternative universes, etc:

Before ultimately destroying DC in its entirety:

He then recreated it all with a snap, and made plans to do the same thing the following week:
Whether you like it or not, the realms/dimensions/universes I posted above are NOT directly tied to the Prime multiverse in any way--they are completely separate (that's why you can only get to the 4th dimension via a Boom Tube, for instance). Therefore Mxy HAD to have destroyed more than a multiverse.
Stop ignoring these blatant facts. It borders on trolling, tbh.
Like I said, even IF that is Dorkin (big if) the response he gave is not canon in the slightest. It does not change what Mxy did in the comic itself. Only an OFFICIAL retcon can change that. Website comments =/= official retcons, btw.
The multiverse never really went away. Aside from Hypertime, the multiverse itself has been canonically referenced multiple times.
Here's one such instance (from a JSA comic published in 1999):
There is only one phantom zone, one fourth world, one fifth dimension etc. If these are referenced in WF, its absolutely canon.

i appreciate the prood you gave me, i really do, but im simply trying to get to the truth.
now mxy destroyed all Dc universes right? WF was published in 2000 correct? fact is, there wasn't even a multiverse back then was there? COIE erased the whole multiverse concept and it wasn't until infinite crisis that the multiverse was reborn by alex luthor.
could you provide an explanation to that? if you can, then i would gladly accept it.

Hypertime. Multiverse never went away though. Here's the scan from JSA 13 which references multiverse

Here is the superman "saves the omniverse" scan
The fact that wildstorm universe was a part of DCU before IC which in itself was a multiverse should tell you that DC was never a single universe. Chalk it up to hypertime.
