[edit] The Presence

I see that a recent edit presents The Presence as being below the Endless, and to be no more powerful than any other Pantheon Leader. Since I don't read Vertigo Comics and I missed the Rama arc in Wonder Woman, I can't confirm or deny this. However, The Presence has always been presented in the DC Universe as the Ultimate Being, so I find this reinterpretation doubtful. It's possible that there is a terrestrial deity that has been mistaken for the Presence; that in fact might explain why the Angels of the Silver City do not seem superior to humans at all (in terms of divinity, not power) but more like the average DC comics "god." Also, note that not all Vertigo stories are in continuity with the main DC Universe. I wanted to contact the person who made these edits about it but he has no personal Wikipedia page, apparently. So I decided to post this here for argumentation. -Wilfredo Martinez 19:47, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Since no discusion seems to have sprung on the subject, I'm removing the above reference until a quote from a believable source (which Rama, being a foreign god, would not be) including the issue number, is provided. -Wilfredo Martinez 02:13, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thor

When Dream of the Endless obtained the keys to Hell, several pantheons competed to obtain them (note that some deities, such as Thor, are depicted incorrectly in this story.)

What does that mean? Depicted incorrectly in relation to Norse myth, to previous appearances in the DC universe, to subsequent appearances, something else? Ashamanic 21:12, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

All three, actually. As a matter of fact, this "Thor" was basically used for a phallic joke (he asked a cat-headed goddess to "rub his hammer" to make it grow.) Pathetic, really. - Wilfredo Martinez 02:02, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
