Reading Kim Newman's Secret Files of the Diogenes Club (with much enjoyment--he's good), I derive a brief flicker of amusement from the fact that he has two characters lecturing each other on how silly it is to think that God might have created the world complete with fossil history to seem older than it is...in a book whose cover is designed with the appearance of ripped cloth and worn corners to seem older than it is.

I hope it's a deliberate irony.

... I'm almost sure there's a midrash about Genesis that states/suggests that this is not the first universe God made.

Hmmmm.

Perfectly possible. Also possible that ours is not the first God to make a universe. Certainly won't be the last.
