Well, Demonbane could give the majority of Beyonder's team an run for their money, his Elder God form most of all. Other characters from the novel, like Azathoth, Yog Sothoth or Nyarlathotep can pose a challenge too, but Elder God Demonbane is the most powerful of them all.
I wasn't thinking about Demonbane, to be exact. I was thinking about some characters from the Shinza Bansho series, such as Ren Fujii, Reinhard Heydrich, Mercurius or Hajun, to name a few. All of them possess power working at the multiversal (I've seen them put in the megaversal tier as well) level, and possess reality and conceptual warping as part of their powerset. They have shit such as the ability to change, crush, destroy, poison, nuke, burn, create... any concept they desire (example, a Gudou God from KKK poisoned the concept of infinite possibilities, Mercurius created the concept of multiverse); can put an infinite multiverse into a conceptual time stop (Ren), control a Legion of an ever increasing number (a hundred million at bare minimum) of multiversal mooks who also possess conceptual powers (Reinhard) and the ability to reset a multiverse casually (Mercurius). Along with all the reality warping you could wish for. And Hajun is so above this guys I just mentioned it's not even funny (from the few info on KKK I have, his Taikyoku value scales to always surpass that of the enemy, so he is the stablished most powerful Throne God).
Previously I also proposed Featherine Augustus Aurora from the When They Cry series of visual novels, featured in the Umineko novels and in Higurashi as Furude Hanyuu. Her ability to clear is debatable, but she is the top tier in a megaverse in which a Territory Lord tier witch (Beatrice) was able to create an infinite multiverse by her own power. Two Voyager Witches, who are above Beatrice and were spamming Big Bang level attacks during their fight, are also fodder (literally) to Featherine, who killed one by writing her out, and saying she would explain the reasons for her defeat later. Simply put, Witches in When They Cry are higher dimensional beings who can manipulate lower dimensions like they are the authors of a book, by running games as Game Masters, and have a great degree of conceptual manipulation too in their Meta World forms (such as creating concepts or imposing them on other beings), multiversal travel (Bernkastel, Voyager Witch, went to Ghost in the Shell)... Featherine has transcended the Witch being state into being a Creator, and can write the actions of the Witches like they write that of lower dimensional humans.
What I don't know is why Sise Neg is here. Everyone I listed could fodderize him without any question. He seems to be the weak member of this team of overpowered comic characters designed to spite things.
