10 Characters Who Have Defeated Darkseid

7. Cyborg

Wonder Woman Darkseid
DC Comics

When DC revealed their plans to make Cyborg a founding member of the Justice League when The New 52 was put in place, it left a lot of people scratching their heads. Not just because he had been a staple of the Teen Titans for so long, but some debated whether or not a character like Cyborg even deserved to be in the Justice League, yet alone be a founding member.

As it turned out, everyone would be proven wrong. How did he prove the fans wrong? By defeating Darkseid and thwarting his plan.

While teaming up with his fellow heroes to take on Darkseid and his Parademons, Cyborg realizes that they are just too powerful to combat on earth. The only way to defeat them would be to send them off the face of the planet.

Assured of his plan, Cyborg reverse engineered Darkseid's alien boom technology and with all of his might, used every bit of energy he had to send Darkseid and his demons back to Apokolips.

If that wasn't enough to deserve an entry into the Justice League, we don't know what is.
