Where's it been foreshadowed? I really don't read much DC lately.
Grant has always had a tendency to come back to certain key themes - the broken fourth wall, cat-related tragedy, reinvention - and sure, I don't mind that. So ahead of time, I wasn't bothered by the idea of him doing Darkseid again; I was sure he'd pull enough Mad Brilliant Ideas TM out to make it feel all shiny and new. And for my money, it just lacked that sparkle.
