Gorr at best

God-slayer




vs




Orion and The New Gods ( New Genesis and Apokolips)


Can Orion and the New Gods survive the Gorr onslaught or would they suffer the same fate as the other Gods of Marvel U.


No Anti life equation, Source Wall interference.

Gorr.

Since new gods can create universeS, they create one and trap Gorr into one.

This isn't how they are portrayed in combat. It's like saying Odin stops time in every thread.

Uriel005
In a straight up fight Gorr gets wrecked. I question his ability to handle Highfather and Darkseid together let alone every New God and their mother-boxes all working at killing him at the same time.

Infinity Man could probably solo him if necessary assuming he's allowed. That said 1v1 he definitely kills the no name new gods easily and works through a lot of the rest of the named ones IMO if we use standard showings.

This would be a much better matchup for a gauntlet where he doesn't have the potential to just get swamped.

That's actually damn impressive. What's the context behind that? Were they amped?

Is he facing them all at once at the same time or is he just dropped into the Fourth World and allowed to ran rampant? Because the second scenario is far different from the first and plays to Gorr's strengths. He's a serial killer and a predator who gets stronger the more Gods he kills.

the Darkone
The scenario is the same as in Thor Thunder God :God butcher, Gorr takes them on one by one.

New Gods of DC=/= Marvel Pantheons. They are a consolidated force and if they start getting picked off they have 2 locations to fall back to one of which is a fortress world of a mad dictator and New Genesis is no slouch when it comes to a defense considering how long they've been going at it with Apokalips

edit: furthermore Gorr doesn't have the benefit Infinity Man had in knowing the ins and outs of New Genesis/mother box systems etc.

No context and they weren't amped either. Just random new gods were creating fully formed universes. Darkseid and Highfather were so much above them that Mr. Miracle after defeating Black Racer who is an actual abstract when he realized his full new god potential was easily wrecked by Highfather.

Its not space cheese when its characters like Odin and Galactus apparently. Galaxy busting pops up everytime in an odin thread.

mmm

Also its not just a one time feat, Darkseid created several realities to torture Shilo Norman.

it was a bad a$$ feat. i used that a couple times in ds threads, but for whatever reason, when some random god can do it, and we know ds>>>some random god, the implication never translates.... it's weird the way people view darkseid.

C'mon, you know why, leo. It's because people will never accept that Superman=/>Darkseid>>>universal powers(ie. random New Gods.) stick out tongue

Hmm.......and after a couple of months in that same year (in another title of New Gods'), we have Orion telling us that all mortal universeS exist inside bubbles in the one reality of New Genesis:

http://i.imgur.com/s9SAVgh.jpg?1 Lol, yeah they were giving the New Gods a massive push that year. Shame the trend didn't stick with all writers. Heck, Morrison is the only other writer who has consistently painted them in such an uber light. He's the fella who introduced the Genesis Box in Rock of Ages, which can destroy and recreate entire universes with the push of a button. He also reminded us that the Worlogog(yet another universal power) is little more than a New God plaything.

Years later, Morrison showed us that when a single New God falls from the 4th World into the 3rd dimension, the entire 3D multiverse dies as a result(Darkseid's fall also destroyed the Milestone universe as well.) He showed us that Darkseid can close-off entire segments of time, even to a temporal adept like Rip Hunter. He introduced staggering New God tech such as the God-Bullet and Ancestor Box/Hyper-Adapter. He showed us(ala The Return of Bruce Wayne) that a massive build-up of Omega energies is sufficient to erase ALL timelines throughout creation. Etc.

In hindsight, Grant did a LOT for the New Gods(Darkseid in particular.)

Yep.

Apart from the things you mentioned, Morrison also portrayed the New Gods as more like abstract beings. In those batman hidden chapter issues, he had Batman (and then Diana as well) state that the New Gods are living ideas , hence why imo Darkseid didn't really die and was attempting to resurrect himself in "the return of Bruce Wayne".

in an interview Morrison also said that this time (in final crisis) we're going to see the real new gods or something like that. the interview was on cbr but now it's erased; and he gave us hints in Final Crisis about that as well (something which is often over-looked).

Aside from the scan operator posted which depicts Darkseid's fall being responsible for flushing the prime DC multiverse down the toilet, his 'death' in the 4th World(and subsequent 'fall' into the 3rd dimension) destroyed the entire Milestone universe as well:

I know DS fall caused some of those effects.. I was saying.. I thought it was specifically because it was DS and his specific position within the continuity of the universe. Not that ANY god falling into the 3d would cause that. So you're guys are saying any god falling would cause that?

More examples can be provided it need be. But yeah, Darkseid's fall from the 4th World into the 3rd dimension ripped space/time, and made him the epicenter of a multiversal singularity that was dragging existence down to 'hell' with him. Here is a visual representation of that:

I remember Morrison in an interview saying that The New Gods (evil ones) were all equal to Galactus. But in terms of feats they didn't do anything close to Galactus. lol.

I get what you're saying but I can see why people would be skeptical. It implies that even a regular New God would end beings in the lower dimensions. Heck, even the New God version of hand ninjas (A Parademon) should be ridiculous. BUT we know how these things actually play out in practice.

Also, Grant Morrison's nature of writing doesn't help. By that I mean, the point he's trying to make isn't conveyed in a way that some are use to seeing or understanding. Usually powerful characters utilize their powers in more obvious ways. Especially for vs. threads where most of these discussions are brought up. Read a Final Crisis Darkseid vs. Galactus/Odin to get what I mean.

And to be clear, I'm not saying Grant Morrison should dumb his shit down for others (Even though I think it's too convoluted at times and confuses complicated with deep and meaningful), just trying to give some ideas as to why some there might be some miscommunication.

Duh, superman can't be that powerful, so all of new gods feats are invalid. In fact everyone in DC gets degraded because superman beats them. New Gods create universes, meh. Odin destroys galaxies. Greatest Skyfather EVAH. If Odin had a showing like Darkseid had in Return of Bruce Wayne where Omegas would've destroyed whole DCU, Thorbags would've nuked the interwebs.

Really? In that event we say Darkseid damage the whole universe, and we had A monitor confirmed that Darkseid damaged 52 worlds, and Milestone Dharma have to repair some of Darkseid damage, as well as Robinson tie using Darkseid's godlike scope of his power.

Darkseid didn't really lose to anything but combined might of cosmic powered Orion, super powered gun, death itself, Superman's singing. Miracle Machine (which is just a super power mother box) warped reality, and undid the damage Darkseid has done.

Just because New Gods don't show their powers in battleboard fashion doesn't mean they weren't suppose to be that powerful. It's like the Endless/Lucifer mythos hierarchy, we don't really get to see huge displays of their power more then their statements. Through New Gods aren't really good for vs threads, but they are not suppose to be weak.

I understand that. My earlier statement was that they were supposed to be very powerful but we rarely see displays of said power (except for the earlier scan of them creating a universe for fun).

The Endless/Lucifer operate in a different story medium (they don't feature in action/adventure/superhero comics) and yes, the New Gods should display more of their power more often for us to gauge what level they operate at.

I do agree that the New Gods aren't weak but they also aren't good for discussions like this because their power level based on on-panel displays isn't so clear.

Reading Final Crisis, we have what is the actual physical manifestation of New Gods on Earth (which has never actually happened before) but they didn't display anything close to their supposed level of power. Kalibak was eviscerated by Tawny the Tiger (which was funny as heck) and Darkseid really didn't do much (except use the Omega sanction on Batman who fatally wounded his body in the process). Darkseid is solid sky father (he's actually implied to be above that) but he rarely shows such power except when he recently destroyed a planet casually and owned the JL.

I have no doubt that the New Gods are meant to be extremely powerful but DC hasn't really shown said power properly IMO.

Darkseid didn't do much? He was destroying the multiverse on panel, just by existing. And when he struck Bruce with the omega sanction, he infused him with omega energies enough to tear apart the concept of time itself, which would have destroyed reality eventually.
Here's the scan saying that Bruce's presence was tearing apart time (due to the omega radiation which Darkseid infused him with):

http://i.imgur.com/ynlHj05.jpg?1

But anyway i agree with you that not all New Gods are meant to be super-powerful. After Morrison's Batman: RIP arc (which ended with Dr Hurt hinting that Batman would be captured by the New Gods despite the fact that he didn't have any supernatural abilities, which was exactly what happened afterwards), in Batman #683, we see him own the New Gods which were responsible for his abduction. So yeah.

Though Darkseid being a solid skyfather depends on your definition of "Skyfather".

Also, the endless have displayed enough feats to establish their power-level.

Hey operator, I think Superman stated that omega energies would destroy reality in Time Masters: Vanishing Point which Rip agreed. Can you post that scan?

Since we're on the topic, here is yet another of Darkseid's feats from FC that is often overlooked-- heck, I'm not sure that I've ever seen anyone mention it.

At the end of FC #4, Darkseid's lackeys ask him to deliver them a sign:
http://imgur.com/rpmJGyO

'seid responds with a thumbs down to existence:
http://imgur.com/KdQnwbR

In the very next issue, GLs note the following...

Kyle: "Spacetime around the earth just crumpled, like it was crushed in a fist. Weeks smashed into days."
Guardian: "The destructive emanations of Darkseid that have fastened themselves to the planet earth are power-classified: New Gods. They have word-weapons capable of enslaving souls. Machines that can rewrite the laws of being and bring whole civilizations to their knees.":
http://imgur.com/HvSdrUD

And by FC #7, Darkseid notes: "As ALL time becomes ONE time.":
http://imgur.com/8JFPNvs

So presumably the simple action of Darkseid delivering a thumbs down is what initiated the collapse of space and time on a multiversal level, and ultimately merged ALL timelines into a singular event. Insane.
