    Darkseid

    Character » Darkseid appears in 1531 issues.

    Uxas, famously known as Darkseid, is the supreme monarch of the ecumenopolis, Apokolips. Widely regarded as one of the Justice League's worst adversaries, the greatest enemy of New Genesis and one of the biggest threats to the DC Multiverse, he seeks to bend everything to his will and remake the cosmos in his image, while searching for the Anti-Life Equation, an equation which seemingly consists of immense power that has the potential to dominate all life in the DC Multiverse.

    A bit of a philosophical question

    If everyone living under Darkseid worships him and is somewhat happy to have him around, then does he really count as a god of tyranny? I mean what is evil, tyranny and injustice when that's all you've ever known?

    I think that's the idea of tyranny. Because you're not given the choice of whether or not you want to worship him.

    @veshark: Not to mwntion when Darkseid isn't conquering worlds or recording a new track with Ice Cube, he sits on a couch and oversees the enslavement of new servants and gives a soul breaking speech.

    Tyranny and injustice aren't things that only exist in comparison.

    @veshark:

    Good answer. But just one thing:

    When you say "You think" are you being condescending or serious?

    O_o. I'm being serious. I'm not sure how that came across as condescending?
