Being the creations of the Celestials was a rather recent origin for him too. Are the editors not communicating the story ideas with each another? It takes longer to write and draw a comic than it does to read and comment on it, so what are they doing all day? Even Wikipedia mentions Defenders: Beyond under Beyonder's profile in the last paragraph of biography.

It's inconsistent.
In Defenders: Beyond the Beyonder explained that the Beyonders were created the Celestials, to serve as the custodians of the multiverse shortly after it had been created.
Now the same character is outlining a completely different origin for his race, in which they were created by a character called the Lost One. The Beyonders then proceeded to steal the Lost One's powers and trapped his body in a moon.
Whether it's a retcon depends on how it's handled from here. Ewing is in the middle of telling his own story arch, and whether he'll accommodate this revision of the character or if he'll just go on with his own thing is still up in the air.
