Who is Darkseid? Origin and powers
Darkseid He is the tyrannical ruler of the planet Apokolips and rival of New Genesis, home to the New Gods. As the comics showed us, a young version of the villain took advantage of the war between the ancient gods to defeat them while they were weak. This is how he appropriated his powers, including the Omega Ray, and formed Apokolips, a world made in his twisted image.
Among the greatest qualities of this immense power are the disintegration of its victims, the resurrection of dead beings, the elimination of someone in history, the ability to send them through time or immerse them in horrible alternative realities.
