...Which doesn't mean anything in regards to this battle.
Anyway, Mxy stomps. Even Joker, who was an absolute n00b with Mxy's power, very nearly succeeded in duplicating Mxy's feat during World's Funnest: destroying ALL possible timelineS across ALL possible universeS:

But "everything" being destroyed has happened several times in Marvel.
... And even "everything: actually fighting back, has been destroyed/killed whathaveyou.
Originally posted by Mr MasterThe Endless are special--Death of the Endless is no exception. She is basically the concept of Death on a creation-spanning metaphysical/metatextual level. There are other Death abstracts in DC, but she is at the top of the pecking order, imo.

The Books of Magic showed us that Death of the Endless is the final concept/being that will be left when all of creation finally comes to an end(she outlasts even Destiny himself):
So despite the fact that there are multiple personifications of Death in DC, Death of the Endless seems to be the most powerful/important among them, given that she...and she alone...is the last thing left when everything ends.
As for where 'lesser' Death abstracts, like Nekron, stand in relation to Death of the Endless, I've always found this scene quite telling...
Lex: "The attack of the Black Lanterns! The dead rising! That's what this is about, isn't it? It was you behind that!"
Death: "Oh. Yeah. I noticed that. It looked like they were all having a great time. You know, people do come back from the dead. It's not a big deal... I AM kind of busy.":
Lex: "The dead have come back to life! Several of them!"
Death: "It happens! In the end, they ALL come back to ME.":
Death seemed to treat the entire Blackest Night affair like it was an insignificant event that barely warranted her attention, lol.
This is noteworthy, because Nekron is a bonafide universal Death-abstract. Additionally, he is very similar to Marvel's Oblivion in the sense that he also he embodies absolute nothingness. He IS the sentient blackness/void that existed before the DCU was even created. He IS "the empty space between atoms and planets":
...So the fact that Death of the Endless was so dismissive of his shenanigans speaks volumes, imo.

I also now see that DC's cosmic echelons (like Marvel's) are also writer dependent.
Did Mxy kill her and Destiny? I don't think that was portrayed, but are we supposed to factor that in after the fact?
I mean, it's cool, I've done it with Marvel "all reality" destroyers. (factoring in victims that weren't depicted)
That's the misery of 'writer dependance' ....
But do you accept that concerning Death and Destiny?
