I just picked up Beale and Carson's Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament but haven't cracked it yet. I expect it to cover your (1) thoroughly.
G.K. Beale - Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament
Revelation is apocalyptic, so much of its allusions are a muddled conglomeration of thematic ideas -- not usually a specific one to pin point. So be careful when trying to specify exactly. But the book as a whole really "drips of the OT", as I had a prof once state (i.e. references the OT without explicitly referencing the OT). So when I read, I'm looking for OT allusions or echoes. So would agree that the Isaianic references are likely. These demonstrate more of supremacy rather than oneness -- although the latter really demonstrates the former, so it could be both -- especially if you hold to a Johannine authorship since "oneness" is a key theme in the Johannine corpus.
Also note where in the book these references occur. The "first and the last" in chps 1 and 2 and "the beginning and the end" in the final chapter. In the final chapter, God/Jesus have demonstrated their supremacy in their victory over death, sin, Satan, etc. so 22.13 is really the final proclamation of this supremacy. And note the three-fold repetition of the proclamation, denoting completion. They also serve as inclusio (i.e. thematic "bookends") for the book as a whole. The idea in the inclusio generally represents a guideline for authorial intent, and thus interpretation. It's also (possibly) an inclusio to the Johannie corpus as well (cf. Jn 1.1). So there's a good bit going on here, both intercontextually and intracontextually.
Just my initial thoughts. But if you're really wanting further info, I'd recommend these two commentaries: NT Use of the OT, Revelation (NIGTC). I would consider the first source a must-have reference for any NT student worth his salt.
EDIT: gloss, grammar
I don't think this is exclusive to Matthew, the NT writers seem to use the OT in a way that modern folks would get totally blasted for.
I've been meaning to pick this book up for a while, but haven't got around to it. Might be worth considering for tackling these types of questions.

I think it's not a struggle to understand the NT, but a struggle to understand the OT for me. There is grace and love in the OT that we don't see. I'm no theological scholar of any standing, and certainly not an OT scholar, but despite God's earthly wrath against men in the OT, I think it only stands as a testament to his loving faithfulness to the covenant he made with Abraham and, through Abraham, with Israel.
It is tough to reconcile, sometimes. A book I've had on my Amazon wishlist has been the Commentary on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament edited G.K. Beale and D.A. Carson, hoping that it will help me resolve some of these issues in my own heart.
Edit: I hope your dissertation goes well! You chose a good season in which to write on that topic.
If you want to help him in his studies rather than buy something especially for his soul, every seminarian should have Carson and Beale's Commentary on NT use of OT. It's a wee but pricy and probably won't be required for a specific class so he probably won't end up buying it himself. However, it is immensely valuable. I think that makes it a great option as a gift.
