Every time I see the other thread, I think it means what this thread means.
So, let's talk. Drop your juiciest spoilers-which-take-place-subsequent-to-but-not-during-OblivAeon here!
...
Do we know any?

Everything that happens during the Miststorm and Sentinel Comics Multiverse would be Post-Oblivaeon.

I'm not sure what counts as "spoilers" anymore. C&A were holding back on Tactics and RPG info for a while, but not anymore. Some big reveals I can think of which still have some mystery around them:
Mist Storm:
Prime War takes place after the "end" of the Mist Storm timeline; presumably the Prime Aspects yanked some survivors of their choice out to fight in their games and left the rest to die. We still don't know how the Mist Storm universe manages to be completely destroyed; presumably it's the Mist Storm itself, but we don't really understand what that is or how it works.
Captain Cosmic somehow defeats Galactra and absorbs her powers.
Sentinel Comics:
The Citizens of the Sun have disbanded and are doing their own thing. Notably, Blood, Sweat, and Tears are still hanging out, under new names, and are up to no good, though their intended endgame is still unknown.
Akash'Flora seems to be some sort of transitional state. It's unknown what it will become afterwards.
Proletariat is part of a new villain team, Perestroika, along with the new Iron Curtain (the daughter of the original), the Marxman, and an unnamed fourth member. They can be seen on lanyards given out at GenCon. It's been hinted that they'll be in the Sentinels of Freedom video game.
Captain Cosmic's encounter with Galactra, instead of making him stronger, leaves him weak and stranded on an alien planet. Presumably he'll get rescued at some point, but no one knows he's there.
Sky-Scraper and K.N.Y.F.E. have new names and a new villain, Malyce (of whom we know nothing).
Gloomweaver is legitimately free in the universe, but strangely absent from stories so far. Why hasn't he taken over?

The Gloomweaver episode for his Tactics aka MistStorm future where he takes over Medico’s body

That's not what I meant, actually. In Mist Storm he takes over Medico's body. He's still limited in that form (it's super-powerful, but not full-strength Discordian God powerful) and would prefer to be back in his own body, even if it means returning to the Realm of Discord. But in the RPG timeline, Xian Niu, The Master, breaks him out of the OblivAeon shard and he's just legit free in the world.

I’m less concerned in the RPG timeline because more heroes are there to deal with him.

I'm less concerned in the Mist Storm timeline because the whole universe goes to hell anyway.

Wait, wasn't The Master killed by the "arcane battery" that he leeched from Nightmist, when she reclaimed that power? How would he be alive to break Gloomweaver out of Medico's shard if he's dead?
(edit–I stand corrected. The phraseology from the Letters Page was that The Master was "really messed up", not dead. Yay research!)
