Very neat overall. The descriptions are good, and the new font is a major improvement.
There's one little thing that bugged me: No character of level 154 or higher (i.e. any character who should be in a fight against a CR 160 monster) can possibly fail their DC 139 saving throw against Surtur's Cosmic Blast, except on a natural 1. They have a minimum save (Fort, Ref, and Will) of +140: at least 6 points from levels up to 20th, and 134 points from the levels from 21 through 154. This doesn't even count bonuses from items, which will likely be another +30 or so by that level.
The much-beloved Neutronium Golem had the same problem - no one who could challenge it would ever fail their saves.
Admittedly, the changes to the rules you're making in the Immortals Handbook might void these comments, since they're based on the existing Epic Level Handbook.
