Seeing Darkseid being absolutely horrified over his dad coming back is hilarious.

[@dreadlord8628]

Makes sense

Not too sure about this list. Beating Darkseid's Avatar is different than beating his actual True Form.

Depends on the version of Darkseid Pre Crisis was Multiverse level Post Crisis is Universe level Rebirth Darkseid is Low Multiverse level True Form Darkseid is High Hyperversal due to statements on the Realm Of The Gods having infinite dimensions Dark Crisis Darkseid is Low Outerversal Current Darkseid is Atleast Multiverse level for shrugging off Rebirth and Kingdom Come

[@joshuamills1902]

@mr.dccomics9018 dark crisis disproves your theory. The first crisis he fell in the God sphere so yes he's as big as the multiverse because he was on apocalypse. If superman goes through a boom tube to apocalypse he's the same size as darkseid. That has since been retconed with new origin of darkseid and the new gods... yes 2 different orginins and infinate crisis darkseid had to be amped up to even compete with the anti-moniter... daekseid still lost and died grail had to get him to absorb old gods to restore his power.... again still no proof of true form darkseid you know the one who lost to doomsday on apocalypse 😂.

[@jessemillan1385]

My Top 5 DC Villains who can beat Darkseid are The One who laughs, Yuga Khan(His Dad), Trigon, The Anti-Monitor, and Doomsday(Who knocked him out on his debut). Honorable Mentions: Imperiex, Perpetua, Superboy Prime, Nekron, Also, I saw what you did with The Rock slapping Cody Rhodes, which hypes me up for WrestleMania 40 even more.

He is but we cant use the real Darkseid because of that so we gotta use his avatar

Those aren’t avatars. That’s DS using boom tubes.

​@@TEAMSTERSLOCAL282NYCNah those avatar using boom tube. True form darkseir is the size of whole universe

[@joshuamills1902]

Have you not been paying attention? Perpetua had a darkside she controled. Also the great darkness clearly said darkseid is nothing more but an avatar of his power. So darkseid is the avatar he does not have avatars. Also darkseid lives in the fourth dimension ​where everything is bigger, including Superman when he uses boomtubes. There is no such thing as true form darksied 😂 @Watch-0w1

[@joshuamills1902]

​@@Watch-0w1nope darkseid is only that big when he's in the god sphere aka the 4th dimension.

@@joshuamills1902 I can't argue with u , I not knowledgeable on the topic But great darkness isn't evil alone. Daekseid can represent that while using it power.

[@MikeComics1]

I don't know if anybody else is mentioned it in the comments. But the 1st thing that I noticed when I watched this video. Is that you included doomsday. But you didn't include the story line Doomsday hunter Where 1 of the 1st things that happened in the 1st issue I believe was doomsday almost killing darkside. I was a kid when that book came out and I read it several times over again. That moment still shocked me.

[@user-ro3ju8ds9i]

That happened nin the 90s both of them are wayy more powerful now ,esp darksied

[@MikeComics1]

@user-ro3ju8ds9i yes I'm aware. I'm just saying that the whole point of the video was to Darkseid or possibly take out dark side. Doomsday in actual publication history did take out dark side. And it took a mother box to bring him back to life LOL And on a side note. I was kind of annoyed with writer Artist Jergens for how he portrayed Superman in those books. Because he ignored the fact that's Superman had a great power upgrade too. Because after he was resurrected. His powers are growing even a little bit out of his control. At that time I thought that he should have given doomsday more of a run for his money

[@UserName70-ee4fx]

I want to see more of Hourman. What if his pill teleports him to a random crime or supervillain attack? He has one hour to figure it out and save the day before he returns to wherever he was.
