Eclipso is a god, he can be whatever he wants to be.

Thor just casually does this

Nothing "casual" about this.

He was trapped, he was desperate and losing his shit.

I still have much to learn. 🙁

Galan, I'll teach you how to post scans.

I taught the great Carvatar himself.

Ok. So, where to start. At the top

The Source/Presence.

Now, I know that this is not canon in itself [kind of like the handbook], but it's for a fun talk, and I think the writer was undecided or there were multiple writers, because he didn't stick to a consistent interpretation here.

First, let's go by what's canon: The Presence/The Source are the same being:

Now, onto the Book. It's...contradicting itself. First, it makes it clear that the Presence is the Supreme being of the Omniverse that created Perpetua [a Hand]:

Then we get to the part where The Presence and the Source are considered separate entities:

But we also have it stated that the Cosmic Raptor is sent by agents of the Presence:

Now, back to canon, you both remember that the Raptor is specifically sent by agents of the Source:

All good, as within the canon books, the Source and the Presence are used interchangeably.

But then we go to other pages, and suddenly it's 180 and the Presence and the Source are not only different, but the Presence is stated, contradicted to what was written pages earlier, as the supreme being in the Multiverse but possibly not the Omniverse:

And the Source is defined separately:

Thoughts?

@Philo

TBH, This is the first thoughts when I finished reading the handbook. It seems that the writers wrote these pages separately and didnt check their work to coordinate each other.

And I feel they also cut corners when they were writing said book. I mean look at these scans

The Marvel Book:https://ibb.co/Zx7LRtF
The DC Book:https://ibb.co/8NLZ3NB

See the similarities?

Edit:
Also they seem to rename the Monitor as Over-Monitor.....Which probably would stimulate a lof of confusion if DC really trying to take this direction lol

https://ibb.co/4Rs1HJd

lol, that's the "copy the homework but don't make it obvious" meme incarnate with the definition

--

I preferred the name Overvoid to remove the confusion. Even Monitor Mind, Primal Monitor or "The Monitor" gets confusing.

And currently he's male. Has been for the past several appearances.

it was a perfect way for dc to merge their vertigo cosmology in their handbook

instead they gave us pic of n52 lucifer from etrigan series 🙁
