Preacher is not in DC continuity so I know that doesn't count and don't know anything about the invisibles so idk. Synnar tells the story so its hard to believe him from what we already know.Mike Carey showed it a few times in the Lucifer comic where another creation before Gods creation, but those failed creations do not matter any longer since YHWH/The Presence is eternal and creates perfect one's. Just 2 instances of the other creations. 👆

hmm.... it's funny you should say that about preacher, considering it was referenced in the 2010 DC handbook (a random example):

it does however show crossovers but i can assure you those have references as well, i can prove it.
and the saint was even seen in DC's hitman #42:

i can show you multiple references from several other issues of the series.

your 1st scan doesn't contradict anything. It tells us without yahweh there wouldn't be anything which is true because yawheh was the one who created lucifer and michael, who in turn, created the cosmos.
your 2nd scan is refutable, i can say that i created a world of misery and pain, does that mean we have to take it literally? nope. Though even IF we take that literally you do realize that i already provided on panel evidence that says lucifer and michael were the ones who created it, right? in which case we resort to bios, which clearly says that lucifer and michael were the ones who created it and not yahweh.
your 3rd scan doesn't contradict anything either, since it tells us that lucifer is an aspect of God, which is true he does embody God's will.
Good to know that i remembered lucifer #75 incorrectly, in which Yahweh merely says that he is lucifer's (and the host's) maker, while in the very same page he mentions that Michael will release the energy and Lucifer weave's it into suns:

And this is what was confirmed by the bio!

i know that there are other creations (universes), in fact there are millions of them (which are represented by the mirrors), which are inside Yahweh's totality of creation. Lucifer #37:

what i was saying is that if there was a creation before the totality of Yahweh's creation.
Though your second scan is probably true seeing how it was actually the silk man who emerged from that particular creation.
btw, the reason it is referred to as being Yahweh's creation and not Lucifer's and Michael's is because it was created under Yahweh's orders unlike the one in Lucifer #13.

Do you honestly believe that, aside from the ones i already posted, Synnar is the only other creation story??
there's a reason i only posted creation stories from vertigo titles (and i have more), i didn't even go into DC.
But you can go ahead and give me the go, and you'll have at least half a dozen creation stories on your hands to debunk, not that you can, because not only are they shown on panel but - at least some of them - are also confirmed by the bios/handbooks/encyclopedias/secret origins files.
All you have to do is give me the go.
