The tyrannical ruler of Apokolips and one of the most powerful beings in the DC multiverse, Darkseid exists on a level that makes Superman sweat. His Omega Beams can disintegrate, teleport, or resurrect any target and literally cannot miss—they follow you through time and space until contact. He seeks the Anti-Life Equation not because he needs more power, but because even gods crave the ultimate cheat code.

Barry Allen is the fastest man alive, tapped into the Speed Force—an extradimensional energy source that allows him to move, think, and react at speeds that make light look slow. He can vibrate through solid matter, time-travel by running fast enough, and has literally outrun the concept of Death itself. The only reason every fight doesn't end in one femtosecond is because Barry is too nice to end it that quickly.
