... the hate is strong in you

I'll post scans when i get home, but there's literally no way to argue against gaiman/carey/dematteis cosmology being integral part of dc creation

just last year, we see nabu and other lords of orders mentioned in lucifer v3, also the martian god.

elaine belloc was mentioned in dc 31st century

darkseid and justice league literally went to morpheus wedding for christ sake

dematteis and morrison both confirmed on twitter overvoid=presence=the source, they are one and the same

Interesting. Is it shown on panel?

Not only nobody knows what "Everything" means, we will also never get any sort of conclusive answer to that.

The story implied that the Crisis Events was what was undone by Wonder Woman's Anti-Crisis Energy.

But completely unrelated stories that did not take place in one of the New 52 Universes were clearly not part of it.

Sandman #3 features John Constantin.

And there's a brief cameo in #5 with Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter.

But this was back when Sandman was intended to be a twelve issue series. It was first when DC wanted Gaiman to continue his publication that he started to world-build, and for the remainder of the 75 issues there's not a single mention or sighting of any licensed characters.

the best you could argue is vertigo multiverse is seperate from main dc multiverse,

That's not the case because the Vertigo imprint had several unrelated continuities.

preacher has no connection to dc canon whatsoever

That's why I brought it up.

grant morrison directly said source/god/overvoid are one and the same, just interpret and viewed differently by different cosmic pantheons

different cultures and worlds are essentially worshipping the same god

there are at least 20 times these kinda cameos happened, I'll post scans when I get home, it has happened to the point where you simply cannot ignore it. the recent vertigo dreaming book is directly tied to the ending of dark knight metal, where daniel disappeared and books were burned in Lucien's library.

I think you got it confused

the vertigo multiverse I refer to is the sandman/carey cosmology,

all the other independent title has no qualm to this discussion and they are not canon

vertigo stuff that are canon

animal man, doom patrol, swamp thing, sandman, lucifer, watchmen etc

vertigo stuff that are not canon

100 bullets, preacher, v for vendetta etc

you can't group veritgo altogether, some are canon some are not

the best you could argue is vertigo multiverse is seperate from main dc multiverse, but it will still be within the bigger dc omniverse

sandman cosmology is very closely tied to dc, there's literally no way to seperate it

preacher has no connection to dc canon whatsoever

death metal 1 has recognized again presence is the supreme being of dc, vertigo and dc have the same supreme being

The Lord's of chaos (Dr. Fate) were also shown in current series of Lucifer.

also martian god H'ronmeer, that run was pretty good. a lot of pantheons lores were explored

what does this statement even mean, pre-crisis and post crisis are both canon to the main continuity, they are not part of the new 52 universes

new 52 universes is just a local multiverse part of dc's bigger omniverse

Every multiverse is preserved in the wider DC Multiverse

nothing really counts in dc

Darkseid, J'onn, and Batman were all present at the funeral of Morpheus, iirc.

I don't know. If he had time to prepare, I feel like he could have offered more.

Talk about dumb posts...

The CW shows and Gotham are widely held as the worst live action TV shows. Marvel is a more successful franchise and those are facts. Marvel has better movies that’s also a fact. I appreciate some DC things like ‘Titans’ and ‘Joker’ although it’s not really connected a stand-alone.

None of the DC shows made waves among casuals. Many casuals even non comic reading women, LOVED the Netflix shows. Because they are objectively better whether you like comics or not. Period.

you don't like doom patrol?

Que? I just recently had the audiobook, and in the first GN is chock full of cameos - Dr Destiny, Batman, Etrigan etc.

Anyway, Wiki has a list of cameos:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sandman_(comic_book)

astner wanted to say the cameo stopped after the early 90s
which is completely false, sandman endless nights explained the ancestor of OA

Plus as Galan pointed out, DS, J'onn and Bruce were at the wake (plus Clark):

Plus Wesley Dodds actually gave a reading:
