I think that was the original plan, that the end of Doomsday Clock would lead into a JSA book and turn the page on Rebirth. But DC forced Johns and Frank to put out Doomsday Clock six months before it was ready, which led to delays and it really not having the impact that it would have otherwise might have had.
Dec 16, 2019 · Doomsday Clock, the widely acclaimed crossover between the DC and Watchmen universes, comes to an end this week with the release of its 12th issue, in which Superman confronts Doctor Manhattan, with the fate of the DC Metaverse at stake.

Doctor Manhattan has come to understand the nature of what he has called the metaverse -- the collection of ever-changing multiverses, and how they center around the creation of one hero: Superman. It's the all-knowing Manhattan himself, in fact, who foresees numerous future crises coming to the metaverse -- and the next one isn't far off. "In the ...
Manhattan then references the date July 2, 2025, and "a crisis unlike any the metaverse has ever seen, one they will call 'Time Masters.'" He then goes on to add this particular crisis will "revitalize" Superman, and "his greatest allies return." He cryptically concludes that come January 2026, "the timeline will be restored." There's a lot to unpa...

Doomsday Clockprovides the first in-context reference to 5G, the upcoming initiative DC unveiled in October at New York Comic Con. 5G is an acronym for DC's fifth and next generation of heroes, and Manhattan's "Earth-5G" mention might signify DC's next major continuity sh...
Manhattan's next reference is perhaps the most fanciful. "On July 10, 2030, the 'Secret Crisis' begins, throwing Superman into a brawl across the universe with Thor himself," Manhattan says.

- Lex Luthor Doesn't Like PG-13 Swearing. Who knew Lex didn't like potty mouths? You'd think someone who wants to destroy Superman and, dare he say it, rule the world, wouldn't give a flippin frack what came out of people's mouths.
- Superman (Allegedly) Worked with the Legion of Super-Heroes. Like they did prior to Flashpoint, Johns and Frank reconnected Superman to the Legion of Super-Heroes, further cementing the 31st century's greatest set of heroes with their initial influence.
Jun 8, 2019 · DC Universe Rebirth #1 revealed that Doctor Manhattan caused the New 52 by altering the timeline, and three years later, Doomsday Clock #10 reveals how and why he changed it.
Doomsday Clock is part of the DC Rebirth initiative, and it continues the narrative that was established with the 2016 one-shot DC Universe: Rebirth #1, the 2017 crossover event "The Button" and other related stories.
