10 Underpowered Characters Who Shouldn't Have Beaten Major Comics Villains

Although it's fair to say that Batman deserved to beat Darkseid at the closing of the Final Crisis comic, it's also completely true that, for all intents and purposes, it's a fight he shouldn't have won.

Darkseid has no known weaknesses, and approximately seven million powers, the most potent of which being the Omega Life Sanction, which is essentially a death beam this New God can use at will.

There seemed like literally zero chance anyone would be able to take him on - until we learn that Batman has been studying the bullet Darkseid used to kill his son, Orion, and from there found the compound that marked the villain's one weakness; radion.

Had Darkseid not made a radion bullet to kill Orion, Batman wouldn't have been able to study it to figure out how to take him down, meaning it could be said that the villain was killed more by his own arrogance and desire for power, than Batman himself.
