@great_darkness: I really hate the CV quoting/reply system so I'm not going to use it, but I think the points I'm replying to should be pretty clear.
Maybe MM and Overvoid were the same, maybe they were not, there was a lot of ambiguity when you put FC in context of a lot of other DC stuff. Some people thought there were several voids for example, which isn't something I accepted. Besides, it's possible Superman could have been mistaken.
We've seen voids in other comics, e.g. the one Nekron through Superman in, the one in Lucifer, with no hint of MM, so it's my view that MM was an entity within the void...and thinking about it now, it still could have been a void within a larger void.
I disagree that MM made the monitors in FC. You don't need to provide me any scans, I'm well familiar with FC and have debated it plenty and have it handy. But basically MM sent in a probe that assumed the form of monitors already present. If you disagree I'd say we just have different interpretations.
In any event as you say whatever the case was Metal retconned things, and now JLI has again.
The flaw could be MM as created by the GD screaming, only reason that doesn't work is if you stick to MM being synonymous with OV. On the other hand I think it works quite well given a large part of the MM stuff in FC revolved around conflict, and you could say the GD screaming was the first instance of conflict.
