The rocks COOLED. You have an indication of time passing. Re-read it. See if I'm right.
suggesting more time passed than what was illustrated, is.... meh.

Amounted to nothing? Jesus christ, re-read the issue and connect the dots. It's obvious Darkseid got him to stay down for abit. And he still did better than Supes, Waverider, Radiant and everyone else.

assuming dd can evolve past a beating, that would leave prime with heat vision. after he is immune to that, what else can a kryptonian do?
freeze breath? t-vo?? super-sneeze??? (sbp is at pre-c levels, after all . . .) 😖hifty:
i still see dd winning this one, personally.
is DD evolving in strength after being killed? If not I'm not so sure if he really could do some REAL damage to prime who took a detonating Monarch and (I'm sure he has) survived (<- till know I have no prove for this, but if I remember right I read an interview with the Writers of Blackest Night who said something like they would use him after the final crisis) otherwise even if the fight should end up in favour for DD because SBP would need Solar Radiation sooner or later so times on DD side.
DD FTW
Couple of things: DS only fires his OB once. Not twice. I mean, that'd be the reasonable interpretation. After DD slams into the rock and is buried, Darkseid's eyes are still glowing and he says "Die, creature." But it doesn't really show him firing it again.
Second thing is, it didn't really show anything 'cooling', either. It shows what could be steam...or, hey, what could be dust. Which makes sense considering the tons of rock that had just been crushed.
Furthermore, Darkseid's own words make it seem like DS knew he didn't kill him. He talks about letting everyone knowing that he died at the feet of Darkseid....then DD bursts out of the rubble and he goes, "Impossible!" He later goes onto add, during the melee brawl, that no one has survived the OB from point blank before. However, he doesn't get a chance to use 'em. Well, why would he phrase it that way? "No one has survived the Omega Beams from point blank range" would indicate that DD had survived them from the greater distance that Darkseid had previously fired them at.
And that Countdown piece is blown way out of proportion. Seriously. It lists major arcs that the character has appeared in! Nothing else! It doesn't list how many times he's died. In fact, it lists Superman - Doomsday:Hunter/Prey #1-3. So what, did he get killed in issues 1, 2, and 3? No! It's the stories he's appeared in, nothing more.
Get over it, people. You know who you are.
Darkseid fired the beams 2x, once at DD far away then again to melt the rock and cooled it so nobody could get to DDs body. Afterwards Darkseid walks away thinking its over then DD busts free and attacks DS, we then see DS eyes begin to light up again as DD knocks his face away. That is the way it happened, whether you like it or not. 😉 About Countdown here is the scan for all to see, it says "Superman would return from Death.. As DD would again again and again" clearing showing the times hes died and returned.

Grasping at straws people. The evidence during the arc supports the idea that he wasn't killed by DS. Period. He might have been stunned or something like that but killed don't think so. He came back almost instantly from underneath the rumble to wtf pwn DS. There was no reference in that fight or after to suggest DS killed doomsday none.

All that shows is that he was killed during the H/P storyline and the Imperiex storyline, if you want to read that literally. Which he was. Both times via entropy. Meh, then again in IC to the two Supermen. [/B]
Alright here 😛
DS firing far away.

Here is 2nd where Darkseid slams Doomsday into the concrete building
still with the first Omega Beam attack, then he walks in front of the destroyed structure on top of Doomsday and his eyes light up again (note: while DS was walking there he was not using them) with the Omega Beams and melt the rock so it covers DD body.

3rd time he was going to use them up close but never got the chance.

The Countdown issue shows him with Darkseid, Imperiex and in IC and all 3 times he died from those beings, although now thinking about it you could be right about DD dying to entropy in H/P but why show DS in that pic when it was Waverider and Superman that sent him to the end of time?? Does not make sense..

If its trying to talk about entropy killing him then why is it showing darkseid instead of entropy?
It's showing the H/P arc as a whole. Why would someone draw DD falling into entropy over DD punching DS's lights out?

Why would DS try to seal him under a little bit of rock if he thought he killed him?
I guess your interpretation could be right. I dunno.

Originally posted by Enyalusto me, it looks like darkseid initially nailed DD with the beams, knocking him into the structure/burrying him. he then appears to stop blasting entirely so he can finish his 3 sentence monologue. then his eyes light up again, just before he blasts DD a second time.
This was the scan that one of my posts above addressed. Darkseid really isn't shown firing it. His eyes light up. And then it looks like energy surrounding him.Why would DS try to seal him under a little bit of rock if he thought he killed him?

He did that as a warning to anyone else who would dare mess with Apokolips. He thought DD was dead DS saying "let your lifeless body rest", so he turned away and that gave DD the chance he needed to attack, Darkseid even dodges Doomsdays right hand then concentrates on hitting DD again up close with his Omega Beams and DD saw it and stopped it.
