Intriguingly that anti-Darkseid alliance isn't just limited to heroes. Even Lex Luthor - who would always have enough guile to escape even a threat as big as Darkseid - is part of the resistance.

And as part of the resistance there's a crack team led by Bruce Wayne known as Batman's Berzerkers, including a number of villains - Deathstroke, Captain Boomerang and Cheetah among them as well as Huntress.
