Just as Doomsday and Darkseid were to meet in combat, Darkseid was forced to flee as the battle had caused the planet's atmosphere to become toxic and therefore worthless to Apokolips. Doomsday managed to hitch a ride on an escaping shuttle. This shuttle eventually crashed on Khundia. The warring Khundian clans united in order to build protective armor for a warrior named Kobald. His goal was to survive long enough to force Doomsday onto a rocket.
Once the rocket was in space, Doomsday killed Kobald and the resulting explosion sent him hurling through space. He next came across the path of a Green Lantern named Zharan Pel. Doomsday took his power ring and sensing the power of the Guardians of the Universe , made his way to them. Hundreds of Green Lanterns were sent to stop him and were killed.
He continued to Oa where a single Guardian sacrificed himself in battle to defeat him. With Doomsday dead, the Guardians turned their attention to rebuilding the Corps. In reality, the release of massive energies by the Guardian had caused a tear in space through which an injured and unconscious Doomsday fell.
Eventually coming to Calaton, he tore that world apart for three years. With only the capital city left, all the members of the royal family combined their life forces into a single energy being, The Radiant. The Radiant killed Doomsday with a huge blast of energy laying waste to over a fifth of his world in the process. In common Calatonian burial procedures, Doomsday's body was shackled and masked, and due to his status as a murderer, was shot into space.
Eventually, he would land on Earth, the force of the impact of his landing driving the casket deep underground. Doomsday, however, was not dead, as any time he would be "killed", he would return, having evolved past whatever defeated him. Main article: Death of Superman. In his first encounter with the Justice League , shortly after breaking free from underground, Doomsday defeated the entire team of superheroes in a matter of minutes, which in turn attracted the attention of Superman. Notable is the fact that the creature fought the entire time with literally one hand tied behind his back, yet still was able to lay waste to all opposition and much of the surrounding area.
The only Justice Leaguer who could even defend herself against Doomsday was Maxima. Also at that time, his naming occurred when League member Booster Gold stated how the rampage resembled the arrival of "Doomsday". The comment subsequently reached the broadcast media and thereafter led to the creature's accepted name. During his rampage, Doomsday took interest in billboards and television spots advertising violent wrestling competitions held in Metropolis , which appealed to his bloodlust and thus enticed the otherwise mindless creature to head towards the city.
By counterattacking, Superman quickly found that his opponent's awesome power was a match for his own, and so he realized that if Doomsday actually reached Metropolis, the resulting battle could conceivably destroy the city and kill millions of innocent people.
Simultaneously, Doomsday developed a strong desire to murder Superman in particular. However, it remains unexplained why Doomsday did not also react with this specific type of malice towards the Cyborg Superman , who clearly possessed Kryptonian DNA.
Doomsday battled Superman in a titanic struggle, leading the hero to conclude that the creature would only continue to attack relentlessly and endlessly, with no urge for surrender. In an act of self-sacrifice, Superman refused to give up despite taking serious wounds and running low on stamina. The fight raged to the bitter end, where the two combatants each struck a simultaneous, fatal blow to the others head, effectively killing each other in front of the Daily Planet building in Metropolis.
In the aftermath of Superman's apparent death, no fewer than four super-beings appeared in his wake, two of them declaring themselves to be the "real" Superman. After strapping the creature to an asteroid with an electronic device attached a device later revealed to be a backup of the cyborg's essence , the Cyborg flung Doomsday into deep space, on a trajectory supposedly certain to never intersect any other planet. Eventually, after passing through a wormhole, Doomsday's asteroid was accidentally found by a deep-space scavenger ship.
Upon closer examination of the peculiar-looking drifting rock, the ship's crew retrieved the object hoping to find something of value. The scavenger vessel happened to be on a route to Apokolips. Doomsday was fully rested and, after slaughtering the crew of the salvage ship, found himself landing on the harsh world.
This was to be the setup for a final showdown between Doomsday and Superman similarly resurrected, in the meantime , who had been uneasy about the possibility of Doomsday's resurrection. Unknown to Superman, Doomsday had faced and beaten Darkseid himself in single combat even surviving Darkseid's fabled Omega Beams and was laying waste to Apokolips.
Unfortunately, before Superman could deal with Doomsday, Desaad opened a boom tube to Calaton -- the first world where Doomsday was successfully defeated - and sent Doomsday through to what he believed was his defeat at the hands of The Radiant. However, because Doomsday is essentially able to adapt and overcome any opponent because of the process by which he was created he was always stronger than he had been prior to his last death ; Radiant cannot defeat him more than once. Likewise, Superman cannot kill Doomsday more than once.
Superman, while knowing this, was obsessed with stopping Doomsday and traveled to Calaton. The agents of the mysterious Mr. Oz begin to move as the Man of Steel works to stop the chaos they unleash in Metropolis and across the globe. But when Mr. At long last, the climactic, extra-length chapter of "Who is Wonder Woman?

To a certain point, Doomsday is practically impervious to blunt force trauma of a punch from an opponent like Superman, seeing as he has been killed by Superman with his fists.

On more powerful beings such as Superman, this process can take as long as 4 hours to completely drain him of his power. Doomsday is humanoid, perhaps even human. He was the subject of a genetic experiment on Krypton, but it was stated by Bertron that he was not native of that planet.
He is covered in bony protrusions. Breaking these seems to cause him extreme pain. However, they are extremely difficult to break, and these bones get bigger and cover more parts of his body as he gets stronger. The Death of Superman. According to Bertron , Doomsday has no internal organs. When sliced open, his insides seem to be some sort of uniform, smooth, metal-like substance.
Also, judging by the picture to the right, he doesn't seem to have any visible reproductive organs Assuming his would be identifiable if he had them. Doomsday: Year One. Doomsday has died numerous times over the course of his existence, each time becoming immune to the previous thing that killed him. He died many times as a baby at the hands of Bertron , which was the process by which he was first created. He died once to The Radiant , once to Superman , once to the entropy at the end of the universe, once to Imperiex , and so on.
Doomsday, dressed up and chained by the inhabitants of Catalan. Thousands of years into Krypton 's obscure past, long before the humanoid Kryptonian race managed to gain dominance over the planet, Doomsday was originally an infant humanoid, probably a Kryptonian; he was known at this point simply as baby. An alien scientist known as Bertron saw the environment of his home world.
During this time, Krypton was a violent and harsh world equivalent of hell, where only the absolute strongest lifeforms could afford to survive.
Because of this, Bertron was influenced to create the perfect creature that could be suitable for the Kryptonian environment and decided to perform experiments on a baby. Due to the cruel nature of the experiments, the baby evolved into a killing monster, with a hatred of all life. After a long period of dormancy, Doomsday awakened within his holding cell below the Earth and burrowed his way to the surface.
Decades later, the creature somehow resurfaced and came to Earth, where the media dubbed him Doomsday. He battled Superman in Metropolis, apparently killing him, only for the hero to revive later. After escaping one more time, he evolved and released spores into the air that would poison others or alter them to become similar creatures.
Doomsday appeared in Metropolis once again, beast-like in his behavior again but still intelligent enough to rationalize basic strategies against his opponents and predict attacks. After another battle, Superman exiled Doomsday to the Phantom Zone yet again. But the monster was then taken by the villainous Mr.
