Superman Villains - Doomsday

by Jessica P

Do you want to know what there is about Doomsday? Your chance is finally here. Doomsday made his first appearance on Superman, The Man Of Steel, in 1992. Doomsday was a creation by a scientist from an alien world, trying to create the perfect life form. Of all the Superman villains, Doomsday gained the most pity.

During Krypton's most violent time, as an infant, he was put out in the horrific atmosphere to die. He then died as a baby, and was harvested again with whatever was left, to only die again.

This process happened thousands of thousands of times so that this being would be a better, stronger life each time until he reached perfection. Doomsday would forever carry the memory of these deaths and eventually force him to detest all living things.

He was the only one out of the Superman villains to be successful in defeating the Justice League, which brought Superman's full attention. In fact, he battled the team with one hand tied behind his back, literally.

There was only one of the group who had any chance of defense against Doomsday, and that was Maxima. After Doomsday caught Superman's attentions, the two would eventually battle. Much unlike other Superman villains, Doomsday was more than a match for Superman, and in one battle, they both fought hard and long, with Superman taking serious damage and losing strength quickly. Both of them would continue to fight, neither would concede.

At the end of possibly the greatest comic book battle of all time, each of the fighters simultaneously struck the other with a fatal blow. Thus, the end of Superman, and the legacy lives on.

At that point, a Cyborg took Doomsday to a place farway, never to return again, so they thought. It was just one more 'death' that this villain would overcome.
