We don't have all the pieces to this puzzle yet, but . . it looks like what this story is telling us is that all the various entities . . the beings whose power fuels the various spectrums . . the Predator, Ophidian, Adara, Proselyte, the Butcher, Ion, Parallax . . it appears that somehow they've all become connected to the various people that have been brought back to life.
