Well how well would he do? Depends on his goals and how he goes about things. With both dark beast and sinister I think he could get rather far in an indirect method. Many people have been able to get supermans DNA and given the tech in DC they could come up with a few nasty things.
A head on encounter would end with Apoc and his minions being picked apart and being put away.
If he make horsemen outside of the minions he brought and works behind the scenes on some sort of scheme (including metahuman followers or not) he might be able to pick apart and give hell to some teams in DC but justice league would still stop him.. Unless he somehow forces batman to be death.
Originally posted by SevenShacklessure... they could also come up with similar crap to conquer 616 earth, but they fail at that too dont they? and it's not always pis either.
With dark beast and sinister and possible access to supermans DNA And even maybe some kryptonite couldn't they under Apoc create some sort of disease/toxin to eliminate him be it death or disablement?Asking out of curiosity.
Smh...
Apocalypse's goal has always been to rule over an Earth populated by the best of the best of mutant kind, and he attempts to achieve that goal by causing conflicts that weed out the weak among society via artificial natural selection. That process takes a long amount of time. It's intrinsic to Apocalypse's storyline that he inevitably conquers the world, in multiple timelines at that, including 616.
In DC I think he'd flourish, actually. Better writers with better vision would help. I see him effecting the evolutionary process on DC Earth and causing the populace to have an increase in metahumans to the point where baseline humans become a minority and the numbers of supervillains and metahuman involved crimes reach catastrophic levels. All from the shadows. Eventually, of course, Batman would discover that someone has been tampering with the human genome and some of Apocalypse's agents get discovered (Dark Beast more than likely). This would get the JLA on his trail and working to counter his efforts which lead to the usual climactic battle, plans being thwarted, and Apocalypse remaining in the shadows to plot another scheme.
it's not intrinsic delph, hence cable.
poccy was ultimately dethroned from the AoA and cable's future and his rise in the 616 has been prevented a dozens times over. it is also evident by the amount of alternate earths we've seen and the amount ruled by him, that he conquers earth in a small minority of cases.
as for your plot, sinister got that done with High Evolutionary tech and got stopped just the same.

Yes, it is intrinsic. Cable had to travel back in time to avert the future of Apocalypse conquering the world, which caused that future to become an alternate timeline (and the reality that Cable and Stryfe originate from), and there are various timelines in which Apocalypse conquers the Earth, AoA being just one of them. The fact he is eventually defeated is simply par for the course of would be world conquering villains. You can't hold a storytelling trope against the character. Villains scheme. Heroes thwart. Villains shake their fists and scheme again. That's just their purpose in the medium.
