I’ll leave the Metaverse/ Prime Universe discussions to you guys but Superman with a single punch, KO’d Dr Manhattan to the watchmen universe.

Hmm.

Trying to figure out if I'm reading this right...

The prime DC universe = a Metaverse... Which means it is basically a multiverse unto itself. And it is all centered around Superman(something Alex Luthor and Mxy told us yearS ago.)

...And the prime universe/Metaverse has a direct influence on all other universes within the greater multiverse.

👆

And Superman is the metaversal being that drives the metaverse...

That's basically what I got. Except for the Metaverse = multiverse in itself.

I just read it as Metaverse is = a very special universe.

Yeah, I wasn't really sure what to make of the Metaverse distinction that Jon made.

He didn't really define what he meant by that, but it did seem to be an entirely different cosmological categorization... And as of now, the only other time the term 'Metaverse' has been used/defined in DC was in the scan I linked to previously(hence the 'prime universe=multiverse' analogy.)

But yeah, I suppose it could just be Jon giving the prime universe a different title in order to distinguish it from the rest because of its uniqueness. /shrug

Also, Heroes in Crisis was legitimately the worst thing I have ever read.

I don't think this forum is ready for next week's Justice League.

What happened?

It's not about what happened, it's about what will.

The “Sixth Dimension” storyline wraps up in this oversize issue as Superman faces down the World Forger to save the Justice League! Can Superman withstand the might of a being that can create worlds from nothing?!

Superman is about to take on a Multiversal being.

😂

Yeah, I know. He is also taking on Dr Manhattan as well, comicvine is already on damage control.

Won't just be Comicvine.

World Forger already knows what will happen:

................

That being said, we already know that Superman comes out of the 6th dimension arc unscathed:

...Which doesn't look good for the multiversal being he's about to fight(World Forger) 😗

I thought that metaverse=Prime earth means singularity which created/is creating/will create (DC)Omniverse.

I particulary love this scan as it confirms Superman > all variations of Superman in the Multiverse, and by a large margin [i.e. as his feat afterwards confirms it]

They still think that Cosmic Armor Superman=Chaos War Hercules.
Are they really reading comics?

Certainly the prime universe/Metaverse is the linchpin of the multiverse. Jon directly observed this when he purposefully caused a Crisis event(and remade reality) *just* to watch the story of Superman take shape, lol:

Is this a thing? Like, one forum is actually just made up of Superman haters and one isn't?

Doomsday clock was written very well.

It really explain the DC universe structure as it is.

The prime universe, the main one, it’s ever-changing. Dr. Manhattan arrives to the DC a universe. To him, time is constant but he can see it all at once. In this world, he starts to notice time is different. At the start, he can’t understand it well.

He eventually starts to understand it. All the other universes, whether it is one universe or 52, or infinite amount are all splinters of the main one. If Superman arrived on earth in 1929 in the prime universe, all the other universe will be affected by that. IE It means the syndicate Superman likely arrive on earth about the same time. If the prime universe changes and Superman arrives at 1984, they also do. DM realizes that the prime universe changes from outside forces (writers and the our real time). Because of this, he calls it the metaverse.
He decided to tinker with the time to see what would happen but unexpectedly, the universe fights back. It in many ways tries to adjust itself.
The crazy part is, DM realizes the meta power of Superman and is legitimately scared of him. He actually acknowledges the possibility of Superman having the potential to kill him.

No crazy reveal but I do like that DC is fully embracing their time-line of Superman's arrival on earth to both establish the golden and silver ages (as well the modern age).

I actually like Issue. I’d give it a solid 9/10.
“I am a being of inaction on a collision course with the man of action” as Superman awaken...hyped!!!

Obviously this won’t be a real fight. Very likely, Superman's ability to inspire people that will be tested against DM.

Oh Heroes in Crisis was bad. Never really took off after issue #1

No.But it is laughable.
Off course, it is not a thing.

Good Lord...so where does this put Superman power wise? I'm just curious what you guys think. Honestly it seems more and more like deathbattle, for all it's faults, hit the nail on the hit with Superman: he is as strong as he needs to be and when the chips are well and truly down, he is pretty much invincible. He will somehow find a way if no one else can, he will find a way to win a fight if no one else can, he will be strong enough to do whatever it takes, etc. That is the way it feels to me. Or is that an over reaction on my part?

Nah, you're spot on.

Most of us have been saying it for years, but in the end Superman > ALL when he needs to be. That is his essential/fundamental nature as a character.

Johns and Snyder are just running wild with that concept right now.
