Superman Villains - Little Known Facts About Doomsday
By | January 31, 2010
Do you want to know what there is about Doomsday? Your chance is finally here. Doomsday first appeared in 1992 in Superman: The man of steel. Doomsday was a creation by a scientist from an alien world, trying to create the perfect life form. The process which created Doomsday was the most pity invoking of all Superman villains.
During Krypton’s most violent time, as an infant, he was put out in the horrific atmosphere to die. When the baby died, whatever was left was harvested and used again to recreate him, only to let him die again.
Perfection was the goal of this madness, as each time he died and recreated, he came closer to perfection. Doomsday would forever carry the memory of these deaths and eventually force him to detest all living things.
For this most menacing of Superman villains, defeating the entire Justice League was achieved easily, and this caught Superman’s attention. He was so powerful, that he was able to defeat the team with one hand bound behind him.
There was only one of the group who had any chance of defense against Doomsday, and that was Maxima. Once Superman and Doomsday meet, they are ready to battle. Much unlike other Superman villains, Doomsday was more than a match for Superman, and in one battle, they both fought hard and long, with Superman taking serious damage and losing strength quickly. Neither, however, would give up.
Then, in a historic moment of superhero comic book legends, Doomsday and Superman strike each other at the same time, causing an unforgettable and history making event. This is where the ‘death of Superman’ came in at.
Doomsday was taken by a Cyborg, and was sent to a faraway place where readers assumed he would stay, however, this was not the case. Doomsday was to be put together one more time, ever reaching that perfect form.
