  1. Just a thought- OMAC came along a couple of years after New Gods was cancelled.  I think at that point the conventional wisdom (at DC or maybe even from Jack?) was that the marketplace didn't want big interconnected crossovers.  The New Gods / Forever People / Mister Miracle / Jimmy Olsen tetralogy  had crashed and burned for whatever reason, and the surviving books Mister Miracle, Demon, Kamandi, etc. were largely done-in-1's.  I remember the lettercolumns of Kamandi had fans speculating that the Kamandi World After Disaster was the result of the final battle between the New Gods and Darkseid, but that was just fanfic speculation.  Even the subsequent tie-in between OMAC and Kamandi was a post-Kirby retcon.
