Supervillain Origins of Darkseid
Subscribe goo.gl/Q2kKrD
Darkseid is the most powerful menace threatening the universe. The tyrannical leader of the planet Apokolips, he is a god-like being of massive power only interested in acquiring the means to end any and all life in the universe. An enemy of Superman, Darkseid is interested in locating the anti-life equation on Earth, which is contained in the mind of an unsuspecting human, and has the power to eliminate life from the universe. Join www.WatchMojo.com as we will explore the comic book origins of Darkseid

@@Scyllax the story of the New Gods is even weirder than that. When Jack was at Marvel he wanted to do a story where he would have killed off Thor and the Asgardians and replaced them with new gods. but Marvel said no so he went to DC and created the New Gods(it's strongly implied they are the successors to the Asgardians), unfortunately DC wouldn't let him finish the story of the New Gods the way he wanted to, so he went back to Marvel where he created The Eternals, but Marvel wouldn't let him end the story of the Eternals the way he wanted to either. The difference being that DC will actually use the New Gods quite frequently, while the last Eternals comic was in 2009.

This character broke the mold in my opinion. He's arguably the greatest villain ever created. I mean for shit's sake, the guy commands a living planet he turned into a predatory weapon! His home base of power is basically the love-child of Hell and the Deathstar. That is supremely cool! I'd like to see Darkseid go back to his earliest incarnations of using the Source- the energy that composes everything in existence to control all matter & energy, similar to the way the Jedi use the Force. That's essentially who he is, the evil commander of the Source; whereas Highfather is the benevolent commander of the Source.

[@mlnmon543]

People, what about doomsday I mean every time someone kills him he becomes immune to the way he was killed after regeneration. So if this guy killed him he would just become immune to how he killed him becoming even stronger

*"This evil god is one of Superman's greatest enemies."* Damn straight. He will most likely be the big bad boss of "Justice League Part 2." I just hope they let general audiences know that *he is indeed a Superman villain first*, and a Justice League villain second. There needs to be some connecting storyline that connects Darkseid to Superman. Hopefully this happens.

[@risingfire8352]

Well technically he was the new gods villain first but yeah mostly to superman when it comes to the league.

[@chrisdafa]

The new 52 doesn't portray darkseid as only supermans enemy. Darkseid is the one that brought them together. But if your talking older comics,'then yes.

[@chimphunghoangmeo7971]

When I first read about Darkseid, I thought he was Superman's greatest archrival since only Superman was powerful enough to possibly beat him. At the time, I did not watch Superman II in which Superman faced his archenemies from his home planet. I think that Darkseid is powerful enough to defeat Superman eventually, but on the same token, Superman can also beat Darkseid as well. As for the supervillains from his planet, they are just as powerful as Superman and have his weakness, kryptonite. General Zod and his followers could easily beat Superman if they worked together. It would be interesting if Darkseid and the three supervillains all fought Superman. Doomsday is another of Superman's archenemy, but not as powerful as Darkseid.

[@urbanvancity]

I'd rather see a slow build up to Darkseid over many years, through an elaborate takeover of the Justice League, like in Young Justice.

[@chimphunghoangmeo7971]

*****, oh really?? Do you have the proof?? I would love to see it if it is on video.

Michael Ironside's Darkseid is one of the best character voices ever. I think it is just as good as Mark Hamill's Joker.

[@Painocus]

(At-least in the original Kirby stories) Darkseid don't want to destroy all life. He simply wants to control it and make it one with himself. Anti-Life isn't death. It only destroys life in that it removes your free will and makes you a puppet of the will/life of another. (In fact Death is another New God who is neutral in the Dakseid VS New Genesis war).

[@Bobbyboy532]

this was very informative thank you

[@Wurzelknecht]

I always think it's interesting how the strongest villains are designed in American comics in comparison to Japan. A lot of the oldschool end-boss villains that usually need a whole bunch of superheroes to take them on are those big, neckless, barrel-shaped guys like Darkseid, Apocalypse or Thanos. All sort of blocky looking and just huge, muscled and menacing-looking. While in Japanese manga I always had this feeling that especially smaller/lither looking villains are the most powerful and dangerous. Of course both comics and mangas have exceptions.

[@mcstreamer9]

WayneAnime Apocalypse is nowhere as weak as your making him out to be

[@mcstreamer9]

WayneAnime Maybe, I don't know much about Apocalypse, but I do know that The Hulk was defeated by the X-Men and then turned into a horseman by apocalypse, fighting to prove his strength to him

[@mcstreamer9]

WayneAnime Not really, Hulk destroying a planet with a single puch or holding the weight of a star is bad writing, but Apocalypse didnt approach Hulk with pure strength, he instead tricked Hulk into becoming a horseman willingly, as a result Hulk was granted power by Apocalypse and became stronger than ever, even stopping Juggernaut mid charge, which I believe no one else has done

[@ColonelBragg]

Its different in the more adult themed comics like Preacher and the like

[@Nothing_serious]

[@warriorman1708]

For me is Dakrseid the best Superman-Villain and the best Villain of all Time, because he is very powerful, sadistic, power hungry, don't give his targets up and he knows no mercy to everyone, even to his own Folk and Family. And Darkseid should be Supermans Archenemy and not Lex Luthor. But Lex is still a good Villain.

[@trence5]

I believe DK doesn't just want to simply kill all life in the universe - that would make him a Thanos copy which is ironic since Darkseid came first - but I think DK wants to "shut off free will itself" in sentient beings.

[@quarryspanish]

fun fact: the guy who voiced darkseid in super friends also voiced Lord Krulos in Dino Riders.

[@horusrage]

Best Voice I think for Darkseid was Michael Ironside for several reasons. 01. The calm vaneer that he spoke 02, The Tone of his voice. 03. something more menancing about a bad guy that threatens in a quiet voice 04. Michael Ironside always does a very good bad guy.

Anyone here after watching Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

[@user-pi6gy6vn6g]

the origin story for that Darkseid is totally different

[@KoujiIsAmazing]

This video wasn't complete enough.

[@laguilar700]

Yes to all the questions!

[@HITMANPegas]

I never knew that Darkseid is Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget.

[@MDOOMBot]

He'll be the main villain in the next Justice League movie and might be referenced in Batman V Superman 2016 movie; It is a Justice League setup anyway.

[@josiahjobity4951]

Darkseid is better than thanos and love his classic costume

[@markmiller6423]

He will be and I'm looking forward to it.

[@kingofdeathangels1230]

Darkseid is a powerful enemy to superman as you can see in the movie justice league war, but one you will keep hearing of is doomsday becuase it states that if doomsday is killed he comes back stronger and immune to what killed him before

[@rndmpinkiepie64]

I would love to see Darksied in the graphics they used in Batman v superman. however, I still say dc isn't great with its live action movies (green lantern, anyone?) so I don't think they'll make it that far

[@austinshaw7924]

@L boy most sucked and dark Knight trilogy was a decade ago, still amazing but they need to have more consistent better movies, Wonder woman was lit

[@joshuawaldorf9559]

Darkseid is the Frieza of DC.

[@1959Edsel]

Especially at the end when he says "just wait until next time, Superfriends!"

[@Aivottaja]

04:12 = Lol @ the star shaped Boom Tube & Dr. Claw voice actor.

[@BluRayKing]

I had no idea he showed up on Smallville, I stopped watching after like season 4. I'm a huge fan of Darkseid, I'm hoping once they piece together the DC Cinematic Universe he will be in the second Justice League movie, I'd say the 3rd as a big pay off like Marvel is doing for Thanos, but I'd rather Justice League 3 be a live action version of Flashpoint Paradox.

[@Captainsaltiest]

yes but i think he should be a reacquiring villain throughout the dc universe like loki is to to marvel and i think they should introduce maybe braniac or doomsday as the main villain

[@LaughingOwlKiller]

he was just some shadow monster that made people angry on Smallville....

How is it that we live in the age of information where ANY of this is easily accessible, and still have morons claim that Darkseid is "DC's Thanos"? SPOILER ALERT: other way around.

[@Robin-kp1nv]

They're trolling and doing it to piss DC fans off because deep down their hearts they know Thanos is a cheap ripoff that Marvel copied off DC like hundreds of other Marvel characters.

[@elijahmeilak2906]

@@Robin-kp1nv Thanos actually has a compelling motivation. Darkseid just wants to kill people because…he wants to kill people. Also, “Darkseid?” From the planet “Apocalypse?” Could these names be any more cringey?

What if both Marvel and DC came together to make a crossover movie where Thanos and Darkseid join forces to combat the Avengers (Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, the Incredible Hulk, Black Widow, and Hawkeye), the Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant - Man and the Wasp, Silver Surfer, Captain Marvel, Wanda the Scarlet Witch, War Machine, Bucky Barnes the Winter Soldier, the Falcon, the Eternals, Deadpool, Vision (the Good Ultron), Quiksilver, Spider - Man, Doctor Strange, the X - Men, the Fantastic Four, the Black Panther, Blackbolt, Daredevil, Ghost Rider, the Punisher, the Justice League (Superman, Batman, the Flash, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, the Martian Manhunter), Black Canary, Mr. Terrific, Red Tornado, Captain Atom, Hawk and Dove, HawkMan, Booster Gold, Elongated Man, Fire, Ice, Firestorm, Wildcat, Huntress, Steel, Stargirl, Question, Vixen, Metamorpho, Dr. Light, Shining Knight, Vigilante, the Teen Titans (Robin, Beast Boy, Cyborg, Raven, and Starfire), Speedy, Terra, Blue Beetle, Static Shock, the Watchmen, Shazam, Black Adam, Doctor Fate, AquaMan, Satanna, Lobo, Atom, Green Arrow, Red Hood, the Suicide Squad and the rest of the Marvel and DC Superheroes I can't think of right now in order to ravage and conquer the Marvel and DC Multiverse?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!???!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! The movie should be called Avengers/Justice League: Omega Infinity Apokolips War. The movie should be six hours long. I would buy two hot dogs, two burgers, two bowls of popcorn, and a drink to watch this movie. The theater would be jam-packed too!

[@Zomious]

4:12 That was a fabulous escape.

[@peteruhlig9004]

That would be awesome to see Superman and Darkside on the big screen

[@sreeff4816]

It was such a waste for them to have General Zod in Man of Steel. There were better opportunities for them to have much greater villains like Darkseid or Doomsday.

[@oinald14]

Too early for the big guns.

[@ramonbermudez1528]

Ur so right

[@darkpool7494]

Darkseid is more of a villain to the entire Justice Leage than just Superman. And we don't want Superman dying thanks 2 doomsday in the first movie STUPID!

[@OMGruesome]

They had Zod as the villain in the first Man of Steel because he's an easy villain to pull off in a live action film, and he's badass too.

[@darkpool7494]

GruesomeGoose Doomsday is tricky and how will they make him look that isnt ridiculous and what about his origins? plus the people wont want superman dead right of the bat.

[@queonball7358]

To me darkseid is the most powerful villain even though ik he isn't I still think he is

[@justinguyton6400]

who is then?

Goodjob DC now whenever you guys decide to make a Darkseid movie, people will think you are copying Marvel.

[@merricko]

Except for the fact that Thanos is a well known a rip off of Darkseid

[@AkoozabHombres]

merricko Not by people who don't read the comics. All they know is that Thanos came first in the cinematic universe.

merricko maybe by you but 80% of people that watch comic book movies don't read comic books

Snot Nose It doesnt take rocket science to pull those kind of stats. Most Americans don't even know what year the Civil War started. I doubt theyd know jack shit about comic books. Srsly man, this country is dumb...imagine how dumb they are about geek culture

[@FrauenArzt2012]

" his escaping!" I just love how they point out the obvious in old cartoons. Darkseid's voice sounds like Krulos from Dinoriders.
