Are DC going to keep trying to create a "there used to be an older universe" stories until one of them sticks?

I wonder what connection Perpetua has to Relic

SINESTRO: Give it up, Ganthet. I've discovered your secret.

GANTHET: Shit, you know about the Fear Entity in the Central Power Battery?

SINESTRO: Wait, what? No.

GANTHET: Okay, let's narrow it down. Does it have anything to do with the emotional spectrum, the other lantern corps, or the Entities that personify the emotion colors?

SINESTRO: Uh, no.

GANTHET: The Earth is the true center of the universe? The Manhunters didn't malfunction, they were deliberately reprogrammed? The first Lantern was a human time traveler from another universe named Volthoom, and we've been keeping him locked in a box?

SINESTRO: Keep going.

GANTHET: One of our own accidentally created the multiverse? Martians used to be on fire until we modified them? Humans and Martians used to be the same race in a previous universe?

SINESTRO: I was just going to say that you wear a corset.

GANTHET: It's the Phantom Corset of Sector Infinity, and wearing it is the only way to prevent the release of an evil older than you can imagine.

SINESTRO: Sure it is.

When you put it that way, it's like the Guardians have been at the center of a shit-ton of retconned revelations which inevitably make them look ever more awful and which always lead to worse shit down the road.

At this point, they're responsible for about 80% of everything in the DC Universe. The New Gods and the Lords of Chaos and Order only get 5% each.

[timefire]

so the children of the Red and Blue planets used to be one...

Red and Blue

Does that Perpetua's ultimate warriors were Kryptonians???

Ooh, symbolism.

Oh, Guardians: Is there anything you haven't already fucked up before we were born?
