Spider-man's Agility & Spidersense vs. Darkseid's Omega Beams
We've seen the beams tracks a target to it's destruction, but we've also seen Spidey dodge multiple machine gun bullets.
Can Spidey avoid the Omega Beams?

BTW, in this match all Spidey has to do is avoid the beams for 5 minutes straight.

I'd point to a recent issue (somewhere around ASM 520, but I forget the exact number. It was early-on in the "The Other" story arc) where he has to dodge 2 bullets that intelligently track the target. They avoid other people, objects, etc.
He's dodging them just fine, and I'm sure 5 minutes wouldn't have been a problem. In the issue, the bullets aren't stopping so he stops and catches one of them (yeah, he catches it) but the other one clips him in the shoulder. Still, if all he needed to do was dodge them for 5 minutes, it wouldn't be much of a problem.
I know absolutely nothing abot the Omega Beams, but unless they're lots faster/smarter/quicker than Tracer's intelligent bullets, I'd have to say he could do it.
...I'm assuming a city. He might be screwed otherwise. And if they go on indefinitely, he can't dodge them forever.

for 5 minutes? hmm . . . that's an awful long time. he'd need to get the beams to strike something/someone else before that because i don't think he could manage 5 mins. the environment would also play a part indetermining how long he could last.
Exactly right.
Bats did it, 5/13/06 episode of JLU.
For Spider-Man, it would be a fraction the challenge.
(Personally, Bats should've been nailed on the spot, and I really don't think Spidey should be able to dodge them either. But apparently, the beams are not all that fast--nowhere near cee, maybe even slower than bullets...which then makes me wonder why Superman doesn't dodge them. Talk about PIS all the way around!)

I seen that episode of JLU too and saw bats dodged it. I mean come on he only human and if he can do it then so could everyone's favorite neighborhood wall crawler. Especially now with his new upgrades.
I read in a comic book once where Robin (Tim Drake) had an accidental encounter with Darkseid and ended up dodging the Omega Beams by going down a whole and then moving to the side at the last second. The theory being that when you're out of Darkseid's line of sight the Omega Beams don't have quite the same accuracy.
Well couldnt Spider-man dodge for a bit then jump behind something at the last second so the omega beams would destroy that instead...and has any1 actuly dodged the omega beams before?
