I mean, The Presence stated that he was "shaped by forces external to me." Shouldn't this statement alone prove that he is NOT the supreme being? Besides, he is unable to kill the Great Evil Beast and Elaine Belloc is equal to The Presence in power now. Also as you mentioned, he was killed ("temporarily") by the Archangel Gabriel (albeit with a sword The Presence himself created). Yes, The Presence is extremely powerful, and is a character characterized as "meta" but he has shown clear boundaries, such as being killed, being unable to kill GEB, He is also not even fully omniscient, there are certain things he's not aware of, Lucifer escaped his plans, and he cannot know thoughts of comparable beings.

The Overmonitor is also logically above him in power. Being the canvas of the DC Universe, it is completely boundless, even to The Presence. But the true supreme being of the DC Universe is The Writer. He is an actual character who appeared in an Animal Man comic. Grant Morrison has stated multiple times in interviews that the Overmonitor was drawn against its will, and since the Overmonitor represents the paper on which comics are drawn on, who else but The Writer is capable? It wrote DC Comics in its entirety, and every single concept and character in the DC Omniverse is nothing but fiction to The Writer's perspective.
