Wonder Woman Vol. 5 #44Looking at the fight, she absolutely wrecked him.
Not at all.
He was casually swatting her away at the start. When she went for another charge she knew it would be the same and buried him instead. When he dug out she attacked him while distracted. She hits him twice and had the lasso around his neck. Again DS is not phased and casually catches her next attack and begins to insult her “This is futile and pathetic. The last time we fought your father, Zeus, who steeped in and saved you...at the cost of his own life” they have an extended long conversation. She then hit him and sent him to his knees and grail tackles Diane. DS instantly stands up and says “such silly theatrics” and casually walks away
DS was treating her more of a nuisance then a serious threat. Case in point in Wonder Woman #36 teenage Darkseid was easily swatting her away with a back slap before he drained her. “Even at this “age” — younger then I was, less powerful..it’s still enough to quell whatever fires you light”
