10 Most Epic Wonder Woman Fights That Blew Fans' Minds

6. Wonder Woman Versus Darkseid

Wonder Woman vs Darkseid
DC Comics

Darkseid was a lowly mud-grubber until he was endowed with the power of ancient deities, turning him into a New God. Although he was killed by the Anti-Monitor, Darkseid saw death as a mild inconvenience and so, was reincarnated as a baby.

Now, a baby needs to eat to grow. But Darkseid doesn't eat food - he eats gods. His daughter, Grail, tracked down as many deities as she could so Darkseid could siphon their power to make his body stronger. By doing so, he had to kill many of Diana's friends and family including Perseus, Callisto, Hercules, and Zeus.

Driven by revenge, Diana allied with her twin brother, Jason of Argo, and challenged the New God to a battle to the death.

Now, many die-hard DC fans would argue that Diana would have no chance against Darkseid. He's one of the most powerful beings in the universe. How could she beat him?

Well, since this is a comic, you can guess how.

She beat him... with love. I'm not even kidding. Her love for the ones that Darkseid vanquished allowed them to be drawn out from his body. While freed, Diana's family of deities shredded Darkseid's body until he was defeated.
