    If Darkseid decided to set up a staging base on the Moon, would the story be
    Darkseid of the Moon?

    Jack Kirby had a origin story of The Old Gods, explaining their demise, and from their remaining energies the birth of New Genesis and Apocalypse. Jack had Old God characters that began the war that would determine which of the Old God factions would prevale to rule over the others. Instead", this war wiped them all out, and their remaining energies from all of the destruction they had wrought, and the complete annihilation of their planet, evolved into New Genesis and Apocalypse.

  • @blackmanwithcomputer
    @blackmanwithcomputer 8 років тому +1

    I think a combination of the stories could work. Like Usax being banished to Apocalypse and after toiling under the heels of the dying old gods, for decades, he leads b a rebellion. He fools the people into thinking that he's going to create prosperity, and absorbs their power with every god he kills. All that power comings within him to create a true Omega Force.
    Meanwhile, back on New Genesis, Drax had long since recovered from his brother's treachery, and his body managed to absorb the off shoot of the Omega Force and heal him.
    This makes Darkseid both a bad ass, and a schemer.

    I think the new origin story is easier to digest but it does seem a little rushed, but I think the original is also a little underdeveloped, it's a shame jack kirby left DC before he could properly flush it out. It's also funny when you think about how Darkseid appeared in DC first and people will often say Thanos is a rip-off, but if Jack Kirby had never left Marvel when he did, he would have created the New Gods as a part of the Marvel canon and Darkseid would have been a Marvel character, he's only a DC character by chance really. Who knows, in another world Thanos would never have existed and Infinity War would be featuring Darkseid instead.

    • @Zethonring23
      @Zethonring23 5 років тому

      OldSchool As I said, by chance, if Marvel had let him move forward with his original idea things would have gone differently. And seeing as Kirby went back to Marvel in the end, he probably regretted writing the New Gods for DC because he basically re-did the whole thing when he created the Eternals. Thanos' *appearance* was originally based on Metron, not his character as far as I know.

    I really prefer the new 52 version of darkseid .... much like Clark Kent... darkseid was a farmer too ... a regular Joe, but because he see the destruction that of his world, and if you wanna stretch it out more .... these God like beings not only destroy his home, but loved one as well. And in a desperate attempt to stop the violence and stop the destruction. He decides to stand up for what's right, but in doing so, he is giving power.... and this could play on, how, Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. And with that power he seeks to bring order to the rest on the universe. He wasn't able to stop the destruction on his own planet. But now that he has power. In his own twisted but non villainous mind. His quest is to ensure no other planet sees it suffer the same fate that his planet did. He doesn't want to rule because his a villain, but he seeks to have order so no other families are lost.

    In Emperor Joker when when Joker gets Mxyzptlk's power Darkseid says that Joker has discovered the Omega formula. Is this just something they threw in or is the power that Darseid has been going for this whole time? Or does he just now also have the formula since he has the new powers? I ask because I am curious is the beings from the (Fifth dimension I think it was) are just there because they understand this Omega Formula and have evolved there?

    • @hexum7
      @hexum7 9 років тому +1

      Ice a feeling that it was one if those things that the writer intended to pick up later, but never got a chance to, as it stands, darkseid could have been just equating chaos with the omega force or something

    • @IrradiatedOne
      @IrradiatedOne 9 років тому +1

      hexum7 Well first I was wrong it wasn't the Omega Formula it was the Anti-Life equation. I don't know if those are one in the same or not, but to be clear I thought I would point that out. When he was at the Celestial Council (So I am guessing the others with him are Celestials though they don't look like it)

      Monarch v every physical manifestation of him is actually an Avatar and their power varies depending on the true Darkseid gives that's why he is sometimes manhandling Supes and others looking weak.

    • @NumeroUnoApolloTheFirst
      @NumeroUnoApolloTheFirst 8 років тому +2

      +Victor Hardamon I have no idea what you mean. I'm pretty sure it stated there was only one Darkseid that went leaping through universes conquering worlds.
      Could you explain in detail? Cause I'm very confused at this particular point.
      Plus, The New 52 Darkseid has never been manhandled by Superman, it always takes the whole of the JL to fight him head-on and they are barely able to stand-up to him.

    ComicsExplained you need to read the multiversity guidebook it not onlyshows you the true power of darkseid but shows you how the new gods survned The crises's and is there any chance for an old gods video? I mean they are the norse gods but man are they strong for what there death brought to the universe.

    Hey Rob, if Darkseid and the New Gods exist outside the multiverse...then wouldn't Darkseid remember the times he fought with Pre-New 52 Superman or his time in the Pre-New 52 universe in general, since it still exists?

  • @Pritchie45
    @Pritchie45 9 років тому

    What is the Anti-Monitors motive in destroying everything? Does he have a choice to not destroy the universe?
    Is there still a Monitor in the new 52?
    Are Darkseid and High-father Brothers or Brothers - in-law (New 52)
    Are Darkseid and Infinity Man (Drax) still brothers
    Therefore are Infinity Man and High-father brothers (New 52)
    Why does Darkseid even want to destroy Earth besides for the anti-life equation?
    So was the Anti-Monitor a result of Krona looking into the creation of the earth, was he born as Mobius or decided to become Mobius then anti-monitor again?
