How Powerful You Think Orion is in KC?
Spoilers for those who haven't read it.
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: Orion defeats his father Darkseid and it appears he holds the anti-life equation. When Superman visits him he clearly calls him a "God"
We don't see much of him after the meeting with Superman. So I think this leaves to poder the mind of reader as to how overpower Orion will become in a future.
A more striking thought is how Orion resembles his father. Did the son's power became more powerful than the father?
Interesting that he still couldn't change the character of Apokolips. They were just so used to Darkseid's tyranny and cult of personality? Wonder if he had the TP power his dad possessed.

Orion's powerset even now is near skyfather. He simply doesn't/can't control them.
Astro Force comes directly from the Source. It's the Source's Wraith. Like the Odin power, it can do anything. Now, he only uses it to make himself strong,durable and powerful blasts.
In KC, he learned how to control the AF, his rage and he gained the Anti Life formula. He's more powerful there than any Skyfather we've ever seen.
Oddly enough he began to master the Astroforce AND gained the Anti-Life in his own series about 6 years ago.
We just haven't seen him much since then, or much of any new god outside of Darkseid since then actually.
Until this last month or so where a new god or another seems to be in every title. From Birds of Prey, to Blue Beetle, The Next, Firestorm, etc.

He was stronger than Brynes Supes. Current Superman (I.e. after the Morison J.L.A. revamp) is far more powerful. Its been hinted recently that Supes Bio electrical aura doesn't only absorb sun light radiation but all forms of Kinetic radiation. This may include the God waves energy as well, meaning he's basically powered by the same source as Orion. The absorption of yellow sunlight only acts as catalyst for this process. The Firestorm showing was terrible from Orion perspective as that arch way wouldn't even weigh a million tons, which is child's play to all Kryptoninans. IMO the most recent Ion issue cancels out this poor showing as Graven man survives a point blank destruction of a planet, and hes nowhere near as powerful as Orion. As Validus stated, loosing to Firestorm is not such a bad showing, hes basically a lower level herald.
