DC comics themselves have already settled that one, Darkseid wins. They also tend to state that Dick is more agile than Bruce. But you would beg to differ.

True, true. But the last time Darkseid fought Highfather. The only way High Father found to stand a chance was to fuse with 6 other gods including Zeus (another Sky-Father)

Did they ever battle when Kirby was written them? Twice to my recollection. Stalemate if I remember correctly. Beatboks would know.

Im trying to think of a good battle for Blink.Always seems to be a stomp one way or the other Nightcrawler? Whoever wins, that would be one fun battle to watch. Fun to watch yes but Kurt would get owned so badly.

If Superman and the Flash (Wally West) went head-to-head in a fight, would the Flash still win?

If Superman and the Flash (Wally West) went head-to-head in a fight, would the Flash still win? Personally, I would say so, but you could still make the thread. It could generate discussion.

True, true. But the last time Darkseid fought Highfather. The only way High Father found to stand a chance was to fuse with 6 other gods including Zeus (another Sky-Father) Er, no? He needed to fuse with four other gods in order to breach the Source Wall. Darkseid wasn't in the picture. The last time Darkseid and Highfather confronted each other directly was in New Gods vol 3, and it really wasn't so much of a fight as Darkseid shooting Highfather in the back and then being plot deviced down. They've never fought on Kirby's run either, unless you count that little bit where Darkseid shoots Highfather in the back (He has a habit of doing that, as you may notice). The last time they actually fought that I can think of right now was way back in 1978, in return of the New Gods, and Highfather was utterly trounced, but Darkseid was powered up at the time, so that doesn't count. In general, Darkseid and HIghfather are considered about equals. In Superman/Batman by Alan Burnett for example, Darkseid and Desaad are practically in awe of the power of Highfather's staff and what it granted Highfater. More often though, Darkseid is portrayed as slightly more powerful, or at least a greater threat than the Highfather.

There's just way to little feats of any kind on Highfather to argue it.

Brother, the last time I saw Higfather and was actually pleased with what I see was in freaking Great Darkness saga. I'd really like to see much more of him, but doubt it's coming anytime soon.
