@@ninja1man4u He shot lasers through their heads, just like he did with doomsday. We don't need 20 minutes of Superman shooting lasers into every villain's head. Besides, it's pretty obvious how they took over the world. They're superheroes. It's one thing if someone points a gun at you, it's another when someone threatens to destroy the entire world if you don't submit to their every whim.

I'm relatively interested in Superboy Prime going up against Darkseid, Doomsday or Rogol Zaar. See how his tenacity and carnage stand up against them.

[@ThePhantomhorseman]

One on one Superboy prime easily wins but Against all 3 It would be a really tough fight

[@ItsButterBean1020]

Darkseid probably wipes him but that’s it

[@MajinBradPrime2]

Earth-2 Superman KO’d Doomsday in the OG infinite Crisis. Prime beat Earth 2 Superman to death in the same book.. Prime is far more powerful than any of them. (Not including true darkseid)

[@ItsButterBean1020]

Brad Bitcon so? Darkseid while weakened stomped Mordru and Pre Crisis Superman

[@DoubleBoost23]

Prime vs Rogol would be a thematic fight,but it'd end in about one burst of Heat Vision unless Rogol got some Anti-Monitor armor. Unless that Doomsday is somehow from Krypton/Earth-Prime,it's going down in probably hundreds of matches before it starts matching power with Prime. Darkseid is the only one out of the trio that could win the first time even as an Avatar if he opened a big enough Boom Tube.

I’m so confused how the dark multiverse can have multiple events that normally involve multiple universes. I understand it’s a multiverse. But was this not effected by the reset of the limbo lantern

[@tiredox3788]

I think they explain in the comic where they are seal universes.

I think they stopped the crisis before it happened on this Earth

[@sharilshahed6106]

It takes place at the point of time of said crisis where there was only one Earth. The characters wouldn't know they're a part of DM cause it was the choice Ted made that separated this Earth from the "regular" one.

I want to see a Dark JL with Crazy nanotech Bruce Wayne, Lois Superman, Hybrid Sinestro, Robo Blue Beetle, Possesed, Wonder Woman. Maybe the Flashpoint Reverse Flash too but he really is more of an independent character. When he's part of a team he's normally the leader.

Wasn't familiar with Brother Eye pre-FE. Am curious though, what type of Bat"men" could arise from these TFTDM events (if any)? Would Jason Todd return in this particular universe and be one of the few (?) Light Batmen in the Dark Multiverse? Unknown alien that just happens to look like a bat trying to stop Brother Eye?

I wrote something very similar to this, except in my story, it was Batman who turned into a semi-OMAC and also had the superpower-copying ability of Amazo.
