It is? I've never seen such an evidence. I've seen boom tubes making it to the heart of source itself.
Either way, I'm not saying that Darkseid was unquestionably still alive.
I'm not disputing that.
Just saying that IF he were still alive, it certainly wasn't because of Superman's wish... It would be more likely that he was never truly dead to begin with.
I never said he was killed. I said he was erased from existence. If he had died, he could resurrect himself.
And again: the "fell through existence to his doom" line could absolutely be in reference to Darkseid's initial fall from the 4th World into mainstream DC.
No it can't be. When that was mentioned, he himself said that he was taking DCU to a hell from which they could never escape for an eternity. Not that he was dragging them to non-existence. That was the place superman encountered mandrakk.
Darkseid was falling into "hell" regardless what anyone did(remember, he was "wounded beyond repair" during his battle with Orion-- he was already dead before FC even started), but he was trying to take the whole multiverse down with him in the process.
He left "hell deserted" when he fell through the existence. His "fall through existence" was caused by superman erasing him out of existence, not by his fall through the DC multiverse.
As your scan says, Rox Ogama had already "drank from the bitter cup of Mandrakk."
Yes. By your theory Mandrakk's blood should've been erased from existence since Mandrakk's "even idea was lost" and it should've never worked on Ultraman, right?
That's why he was all vampire-like before Supes even fought Mandrakk(I):

That's Monitors' true form. They were vampires to begin with. Here Ogama is in his normal monitor form after Mandrakk was erased from existence.
And here is he transforming in mandrakk.
Its clear that he drank and transformed into mandrakk after the real mandrakk was erased from existence unless you think every monitor drank from Mandrakk's cup because they were all vampires in that scene.
The essence of Mandrakk already flowed through his veins before Mandrakk(I) was erased in the Overvoid-- Mandrakk lived within Ogama...That's the best explanation I can come up with. /shrug
How about ultraman? He certainly drank Mandrakk's blood after his eraser.
Regardless, it's clear that the energies/idea that composed Orion weren't erased from existence-- they just sublimated back to the Source upon his death.
True.
There is really no reason to assume that Darkseid's death was any different-- you keep acting like it was stated on panel that Darkseid was "erased from existence." It wasn't.
Except there is no proof that Darkseid died too. There is at least two points indicating that he was erased from existence, superman's words and monitors.
/point.
Not IMO.
