Venom would be dealt with later as there was still a lot of time for Knull to appear. Truth to be told, Knull should be appearing after the Secret Wars event, and that was the 8th iteration of the universe. But since a symbiote had already appeared in front of John, the awakening of Knull wasn't far behind.
John needed to deal with Black Winter first to even think of Knull in the first place.

Like always John checked the system. Normally, John checked with the system for the new comics that might had been out from both DC and Marvel from his actual world. He wasn't really sure of how his system worked as it allowed him to take away comics and any kinds of items from his previous world.
There was a huge time difference for sure as sometimes it would take months to bring out the full story of comics in this world as opposed to the original time length required to bring a particular comic from his previous world. Maybe time worked differently in both the worlds.
John wasn't sure where the system came from or what it wanted, but he wanted to see where the system would lead him to at the end. And for that he needed to be powerful enough to hold his ground.
It was his constant updating of comics that he always had a prophetic view of the future or at least the general trend of it. So today like always John checked with his system and surprisingly there was a new comics of DC.
The story was based on DC Elseworld. It was DC's way of saying that the story in this comic would be different from the main Earth. It was Elseworld's stories that fueled the new powers of his summons like Arthur, Diana and others.
At first John didn't have much hope for the story, because the world was set in the medieval era. But after finishing 4 issues of it, he was trembling. Because the story was awesome, but that was not the main point.
The main point was that this story had a different origin for Batman altogether. John almost jumped on his seat when the revelation came.
"Sometimes I wonder where do these people even come up with such an amazing story! Let them come back from Antarctica, it will be a big surprise for Bruce." John mumbled.
After that he left for work, he hadn't visited Disney for several days now, so he needed to show his face to them. Many movies would be out soon so he needed to keep an eye that everything worked perfectly.
The movies that would be out this year was Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Carribean and John Wick. So he needed to give his finishing touches to the movie so that the movie was like the previous world's.
This went on for a week, before Tony and Bruce came back from the expedition. They came back with large plastic containers. This meant that Tony was successful in finding the Anti-Metal in Antarctica. The opposite of Vibranium.
John and others went to the Hall of Justice to inquire more of the expedition. They all met up in the meeting hall.
"Heard you all went on a rampage in a different realm." Tony said.
"Oh we had fun in Heven. We conquered it." Ciri said. Now most of the meetings the wolf school also joins. Wanda didn't come to the last mission as she was trying to perfect her sorcery on reality manipulation.
"Must have been fun seeing a realm which consisted only of women." Flash commented.
"I tell you, they are as beautiful as angels." Victor joked.
"I should have joined." Pietro lamented.
"Was the mission successful Bruce?" John asked.
"Yes. We found tonnes of that metal deep inside the Earth. The amount we excavated will be enough for us." Bruce said. John nodded his head.
"I would like to research this new metal." Arthur said as now he was now a 30th century highly intelligent being and he was sure he would be able to make something amazing from such a unique metal.
"You are welcome to work on it, father of Ariel." Tony said.
"Heard there was an enemy on Asgard. What's his deal?" Banner asked. This was the question everyone wanted to know.
"Just a guy with a very tragic story. More tragic than you can imagine. Got lucky with a powerful weapon. Went rogue. Had to stop him in Asgard." John gave a short version of the story of Gorr.
"Is the weapon destroyed?" Hal asked.
"It wasn't the real weapon that I thought it would be. It was just an imitation. The real weapon is what we should look out for. I will look for the actual weapon after I go to the multiverse." John said.
"Now, for this excellent expedition, I have a gift for Wayne." John continued.
"Gift for me? You mean new powers?" Wayne said as he squinted his eyes on John.

"Yes. Few days ago I dreamt of another world. A different world where the Earth is set in the mediaeval era, though there are still powered people among them."
"A mediaeval era? You mean like Game of Thrones?" Tony asked as John had recently released that series on Netflix with the help of Disney.
"Yes. Like Game of Thrones." John replied.
"What is the power?" Bruce asked.
"Look at it yourself." John said as he waved his hands falsely. He summoned the system to spend 400 million on bringing this new power. And then gave it to Bruce.
Bruce who was alright uptil this point suddenly screamed in pain. He clutched his head with his hands as he cried in agony.
"What did you do to him?" Tony asked as he got agitated seeing his friend in pain. He went to hold him.
"I gave him extra power. He will get used to it." John said with a calm tone.
"That much power. Is that even human?" Yen said as she used magic to sense Bruce.
"No. He is half-human." Victor said as he used his lens to scan Bruce. So he could see the changes on the body of Bruce.
"What the hell is going on? Can anyone tell me? GAIA what is up with Bruce?" Tony asked.
"He is half human and half Kryptonian now." GAIA said. Except for Victor, everybody's eyes went wide when GAIA said that over the microphone.
"How the hell did Bruce become Kryptonian? What is wrong with their world?" Banner asked. They knew what Kryptonian represented.
Superman.
Now Wayne was basically a Superman. Even if he wasn't as powerful as Clark in the movie. He would at least be a God to all. Darkrai who was in his shadows came out and used his power to make his master sleep.
He had been screaming for half a minute now. After becoming Superman, Bruce could hear the noises all around, the breathing of the people, their heart beats. Everything.
So much noise overwhelmed him like it did to Zod. After Darkrai used his powers, he fell asleep. Then he put him in his hands and levitated away to a room where he could sleep.
Everybody was still stuck thinking that Wayne had suddenly turned into Superman. Many here were waiting for Superman to arrive. But it turned out that they had their own Superman from the very beginning.
"How did he become half Kryptonian?" Tony asked.
"In that world. Along with Clark, his father and mother came to Earth. And as Gods tend to work, they took over a kingdom. And somewhere along the time Jor-El had a son with a human. In that world Bruce Wayne is a bastard, a John Snow. I haven't dreamt much of their world to know the whole story as of yet but this is the origin story of Bruce Wayne in their world."
"Jesus Christ! What a f**ked up world." Steve said.
"Language!" Diana said.
"Sorry about that." Steve said with a little embarrassment.
"So that is that. Now he is worthy of being our leader." John said as now Bruce really was very powerful and could take arms against more terrifying enemies without being at disadvantage.
"That was a very nice twist of events. Glad to see it." came a voice from the door. All turned around to look who was speaking.
It was Thor.
"Thor!! Heard you became a God. Where is the party for that?" Banner asked as if he had forgotten that Wayne just became another 'god'.
"God is relative, Banner. Am I powerful? Yes. Am I the strongest in the universe? No. I am sure Strange can fight against me toe to toe." Thor said in a humble tone.
"Oh stop humble bragging. We all know you have a God complex." Hal said. Thor just shrugged his head to it. He really couldn't refute that.
He did have God complex, but as more he came to know of the world the more he understood how little he knew. Just Gorr alone could have proved to be tough if they hadn't known the weakness of him.
So after gaining powers, he decided to be more humble. He heard all of the conversation from before as in 10 realms, he was omnipotent, so he knew that Bruce Wayne just became a Kryptonian.
He was happy to know this as now they had another super powered being like him.
"Why this sudden visit though?" John asked as he wasn't sure why he was here.
"I came here to invite you all to Asgard for the coronation of the new King."
"New King? That's great. Congrats on becoming the Allfather." John said. Thor just smiled at it and didn't reply back.
"We will be there. But at first Wayne needs to be alright." Tony reminded as Wayne was still asleep.
"It's alright. The coronation is in a week. We have time. Now let me go to Strange to invite him. I am sure he is expecting me." Thor said as he vanished.
