Yeah, but Morrison's Animal Man was before that, right?

And meta stuff wasn't invented by comics.

Them why do they call them metahumans, smart guy?!

I feel like the egg's more like the one from JLA/Avengers, especially since there's someone inside of it.

I was just thinking a few days ago how great it'd be if an alternate universe Constantine was a corny superhero like that issue of Doom Patrol, and here we are

Morrison's compared Kirby and Mayan designs before, so the big splash at the end was fun.

It's not just immortal man and vandal savage that have parallels (symmetries?). Fate and Faust even have matching pants!

E: relevant

Also, I think Doc Fate's Mayan fortress may itself be a Doc Savage-Superman reference: Savage had the original Fortress of Solitude before DC established one, and Morrison had Superman using a Yucatan base in Action Comics #15.

Didn't Superman have a fortress in Peru before the reboot, though? I'm almost positive

Oh god I'm so dumb I just realized with the whole theme of symmetry there's going to be a literally symmetrical issue with earth Charlton

The goofy gun Damian holds up makes me think of the hyperpoon from All Star Superman, especially since he mentions the 5th dimension (and the primary color scheme)

I wish I had superpowers so I could see the "massless time-symmetrical boson" Captain Atom sees on pages 12 and 13
