I saw this picture a while back, but while it does give a good insight into this cornerstone asbtract who is otherwise barely ever referenced at all (unlike the 3 others), interpretating "the nothing from which everything springs" as an official statement of Creator Deity seems a bit of a stretch.

For example, TOAA creating the Marvel continuity can be legitimately described as "everything springing from nothing", but that doesn't mean that Oblivion created it. It's just a metaphorical wording of its coming into existence - brought about by someone else's will and power.

Similarly, Oblivion not being referenced during cataclysmic events involving other abstracts doesn't necessarily means he is beyond and above everything, but may just be the result of him having inherently no stake in any conflict and thus no reason to join them.

Here again, taking a general absence of involvement and/or reference as solid proof of comic supremacy seems a rather liberal interpretation, and a bit of a stretch.
