Who can kill the Phantom Stranger?

Which characters in the Marvel/DC universe possess the ability to kill the Phantom Stranger for good under their own power?

It'd have to be a higher 'authority' than Spectre.

Presence, Mikey, maybe Lucy. It's a short list. He may not even be killable. Hell, wasn't one of his origins possibly Cain before they revealed that was Vandal Savage?

Yeah, based off of DoV and Blackest Night, Spectre and Nekron are both unable to do it.

Thanos, Galactus, Tyrant, the Void, Eternity, Infinity, Mistress Death, Oblivion, Spectre, Mordru, Odin, Zeus, Gog (kingdom), Lord Mar- vell, King Thor, Desak, Destroyer, Superboy Prime, any Celestial, etc.

This is just off the top of my head.

IIRC, his possible origins include:
-Wandering Jew story
-A fallen angel who was neutral during the war in heaven.
-Survivor of previous universe similar to Galan/Galactus
-Someone who committed suicide after questioning God's actions after he was spared God's wrath initially.

I beg to differ.

Presence, Prime Moniter, TOAA. That's it. Maybe wf myx.

Spectre and Nekron were unable to do it, but I'd partally attribute that to the fact that he has some level of protection/damnation by the Presence (3/4 of his origins involve this, and the fallen angel story is kinda confirmed by Constantine in Trenchcoat brigade), so at least within the confines of the DCU (mainstream or Vertigo), I'd say noone but Michael/Lucifer could pull it off.

If this unkillableness carries over into an neutral setting, then I'd say only Michael, Lucifer and The Tribunal (all vassals for the power of truly omnipotent beings) could kill him. If it doesn't, then really all you'd have to do is be more powerful than The Stranger, but that in itself is incredibly difficult, as although he has few feats, it's made very clear The Stranger is incredibly powerful, but he uses this to help heroes claim their own victories, rather than just turning up and taking out the bad guy.

Either way, I'd guess the unkillableness would stay on, so yeah, Michael/Lucifer/LT.

Begging is about the only way you save yourself in this thread.

The real answers are Batman and WB Hulk! sneer

And maybe a fully backed Spectre.

When the Spectre tried to kill him in DOV the Phantom Stranger claimed that he doubted that the Universe (read: the Presence) would "allow" his death.

So take that as you will.

Good point, that would make sense.
