Darkseid shot him with the Omega blast which killed him and Darkseid then proceeded at burying him under rubble and Doomsday came back after this and adapted to his blast.
DS hit DD with his OE not once, but twice. The first one knocked him into a building, the second shot appears to have left a lot of blood on the ground and then DD is shown punching out of the ground. Against popular belief, the bloody mess on the floor after DS's second shot doesn't belong to DD. In the final book, superman says "According to waverider's story, this monster is made of solid mass, no blood, no tissue -- no vital organs." So no bloody mess. The bloody goo probably belonged to bystanders when DD crashed into the building.
DD survived 2 shots of Omega Beams as DS said "from point blank range" and beats him near to death in 2 panels. DS was also adapting on the fly and didn't need to die to evolve, this probably explains why he didn't die after DS hit him with the OE..
