Nekron had better on panel fights and feats than Black Racer so we're going with him. That's the point we're trying to make.

You could argue, and I would, that Death of the Endless was created to be top dog. Then this came out, but was again retconned back by Luthor's chat following Blackest Night.
Originally posted by zopzopthat's what I thought. I just have one question. Is nekron above darkseid? I ask this because it's been made very clear on more than one occasion that racer is above ds.

She was like this with Lucifer too.
Originally posted by CogitoHer status as just one aspect of Death was also retconned a year later in Books of Magic, wherein Death of the Endless was revealed to be THE last being/concept to survive when all of creation ends--outlasting even Destiny himself. Where embodiments of Death are concerned, she is undoubtedly the top dog.

People claim Death "casually dismissed" the Blackest Night Scenario.

From what i remember there was one instance in which Darkseid literally swatted away the black racer. On another occasion, when Scott free inherited Highfather's (who's Darkseid's peer) powers, he was able to stomp the racer.
Oh I agree that New God-Scott was decisively more powerful. Just saying that it seemed like incapacitating BR required using his own equipment/tech against him(otherwise why even bother to usurp it from him?) /shrug
Anyway, here's their 'fight' for those who've not seen it:
-Mister Miracle v3 #04
Mind you, this was same series where Scott noted that the New Gods can casually create their own universes:
So the writer(Kevin Dooley) obviously intended the New Gods to be operating on a very high level in that series.
