Imaginary Axis Darkseid

[Catalyst75]

Last December, the Imaginary Axis finally released the second of two videos about Darkseid, and I am wondering what people's thoughts are on what he has to say:

I think the second video is extremely well done.

What are your thoughts on the idea of abstracta and the realm of the forms applied to the DC Cosmology and Darkseid?

 

[Catalyst75]

Bump.

Its nothing new. Even within DC/FC itself, Darkseid/The New Gods were said to be Platonic Forms

@Catalyst

I really liked how he went beyond parroting Morrison's words and showed Morrison's inspirations from old philosophy.

 

[Catalyst75]

It is indeed refreshing to see people look deeper into an author's word and find what potentially inspired them. It takes story analysis to another level.

so should darkseid be upgraded now?

 

[Firestorm808]

Upgraded to what?

 

[Yellowpig10]

well if his true form is an a concept in the way imaginary axis is saying then darkseid's true form would get upgraded to 1-A because he's the True Platonic Concept of evil. i've got doubts that darkseid is actually 1-A but still

Already made a thread about it long time ago. 1-A New Gods wont get accepted

But there may be a chance Darksied will get the 1-B rating

Here's the thread to my upgrade thread disguised as a q and a thread.

Anyone looking for scans relating to cosmology stuff including gods can check my sandbox here. It's very much just an initial draft though and it will almost definitely be significantly altered by someone in the future.

At the moment, we have beings directly from the Overvoid as 1-A like the True brothers and Perpetua. To them, the whole DC Multiverse is a small thing.

In contrast, Darkseid's Godhead only fell on the Multiverse and the Orrey of Worlds. Low 1-C should be fine until we determine how many levels of infinity greater than a standard universal model the Sphere of the Gods is.
