Being a Lord of Order doesn't inherently give you the edge over Darkseid IMO:

Dude, the phrase "They are so much weaker than his true form that they can even be beaten in battle, if the opponent is strong enough" is clearly stating that he hasn't lost before in his true form. Just because it's phrased in a poetic way doesn't change its meaning.
Of course you read it the way you want to,
1. he never says hes never lost in his true form.

Just in case you missed it.

Ok then, you know when he fought Spectre?
Why was he remade again, because I don't think an avatar is important to the source.
Huh, I actually missed the fact that Darkseid was the last being among the Skyfathers that EJ gained control of.

That issue came out well after the avatar retcon. As has been stated, the retcon only applies to fights before 1997. The Spectre issue came out after the year 2000.

I read it that way because it's the only remotely logical way possible to read it. He states that the way you can tell his avatars are weaker than his true form is that they have lost in battle.
If I say "the difference between a bull and a cow is that a bull is male", does it matter that I didn't say "a cow is female" ...? The fact that the above phrasing eliminates any possible interpretation other than that the cow is a female makes it just as clear as if I had outright said "the cow is female."
This isn't rocket science -- it's basic reading comprehension.

Yeah.
BTW, Super Powers is arguably out of continuity. The first series was clearly intended to be in continuity, but the third series is too hokey to be. The second series, where this scan comes from, referenced an in-continuity event (Hunger Dogs), but was stated to be out of continuity in a DC Who's Who. I no longer reference feats from there because of the controversy surrounding it.

Superman beat DS when he was close to the Sun. SM close to the sun is not even in Current CM's league. CM FTW

When and how did Captain Marvel become a Lord of Order? If that's really the case then Darkseid may be outclassed afterall.
Shazzam Died, his power went to Captian Marvel, In the last issue his costume changed to more resemble Shazzam's. EH is beccomming the Wizard.
And Enlogated man *puke* is the new *puke* Dr Fate. 😠
