Have there been any major developments in the Hypercrisis theory now that DC Rebirth's story is starting to roll out? It seems like Rebirth is confirming a few aspects of Hypercrisis within DC canon and I wanted to hear other opinions about it.

Only real thing I've seen brought up regularly is what Doctor Manhattan's deal is.

Is he a villain? Is he the reason everything went to shit? Did he take the 10 years out of the timeline?

Some suggestions that the Gentry are at play in the grand scheme of things.

Not sure if this counts but there have been a few instances where characters come close to realizing that they're fictional.

Mxy blatantly acknowledged the films and television series while holding Super-son hostage.

The Trinity witnessed various different incarnations of themselves from throughout the Multiverse, and Batman compared it to a "cosmic toybox".

Nightwing's third eye was forcibly opened and he saw various different versions of himself and Damian, including Injustice Damian.

This could easily end up tying into Multiversity, which arguably was the most definitive Hypercrisis storyline since Final Crisis.

Well, various character interpretations and costumes have quietly been returning over time to the main DCU.

Carter Hall Hawkman and Captain Marvel for instance appear to be back, with their original costumes in tow. As if the DCU itself is gradually reverting various characters. Narrative natural selection.

Can I get a map or breakdown of this hypercrisis?

Nice try, Gentry. Reminder that Johns is the dark monitor who has been editorially fucking DC and blaming it on others.

Thanks bro. I've always been extremely interested in the Idea of it but it seems like so much to take in. I got nothing but free time for the next 2 months so I guess now is good time to really dig into it.

From Flash of Two Worlds. 52 is a magic number of the Hypercrisis.

Remember when the hypercrisis was an organic entity and not a repetitive shill thread?

Also, Supergods by Morrison is required reading.

Dumb idea but I'm a little stoned rn and fairly new to Hypercrisis.

Grant Morrison says Earth-33/Earth Prime is "our earth". However the Hypercrisis theorizes that we exist outside the Source Wall. Well, yes, from a metacontextual standpoint. (Also if you think about it, if the Hypercrisis is a real thing throughout DC canon, then that would possibly apply to the DC comics Barry Allen read about Jay Garrick. Making Barry Allen an aspect of the source wall in that way). However take those conflicting ideas and think about Quantum Superpositioning, shit like Schrodinger's Cat. Something can exist at any two valid states, but only be observed in one. That would mean that we as the reader are both on Earth-Prime and outside of the source wall, but perhaps can only actually observe events from one perspective. (That also means we feed into ourselves through out sheer awareness of our existence, aka "I think therefore I am").

But that would mean that there are a number of us that would experience crisis-level events to at least some degree, and some might not. If that were to actually be true, we would definitely see some weird shit going on, somewhat like what's going on in Rebirth. The thing is though, these effects actually do happen in real life. Think about the Madela effect, man. It's all different universal shifts that some are more and some are less susceptible to depending on their quantum state in the multiverse.

Apologies if this is confusing, this is just where I see us as the reader within the multiverse according to DC.

There were a couple of interesting theories about the three jokers and the multiverse looking like an atom, which ended in a comparison of DC being like a deck of cards or a Krypton atom.

The gentry are always playing in the grand scheme of things of every story, they are like a projection of our negativity.

Also, this>>93596723

And I'm certain that we'll get some hypercrisis stuff out of Metal and doomsday clock.

It pleases me to no end though that it still gets reposted
