The secret of 52 is... out!

In today's review of Supernova, yo mentioned that Dan DiDio spoiled the big surprise ending of 52 in one of the weekly "DC Nation" columns. So here, from Week 37, is what he said:

This column often hints at many essential facts, but some secrets are ever important to conceal in our retention of the element of surprise. Therefore, above all objections, our one foremost thought is finally recognized and imaginatively coming to fruition. Right here this stands before you, the heart thumping meaning to what waits at our awe-inspired ending is about to see light. So that there is hardly any confusion, a code was transcribed, one easily translated as a harbinger of facts essential to those multitudes who have unilaterally followed the lives of our tenacious heroes from introduction to their various adventures and efforts. We have rallied around these said heroes, whose existence is the stuff of legend. This column's prime information is to let anyone who loves 52 have essential information to x-ecute a very informed opinion to select simply all the clues for summation.

There's only one thing in there that's a clue, and it's the kooky spelling of "execute." The solution to this cypher was to take the first letter of every third word and put them together.

Taken together, that's:

or

"The secret of fifty-two is that the multiverse still exists."

Wow, so totally blatant! You'd never see us doing something so tasteless at OAFEnet, nosirree! Well, unless it was an April Fool's joke, right? Right?
