Darkseid has been ruling the Final crisis universe for „eons“ and has used the Anti-Life equation to turn the Justice League into his slaves. „There is no one here but Darkseid, Kryptonian. I control with Anti-Life anything that breathes. I speak through everything in this place.“ Darkseid tells Superman upon entering the Final Crisis realm. He’s elevated himself to the level of Old God and has only one deed left: securing his reality. To do this, Darkseid is going to submerge Superman in a fire pit shaped like the Superman logo. This will turn Superman into his „final son.“ Superman is on the verge of being transformed, but Wonder Woman interferes with Superboy-Prime’s plan and convinces him to destroy the antenna and direct the crisis energy into the only remaining Alfred Box. With Diana’s help, Superman escapes the Final Crisis reality.
Over the course of centuries, New Gods always become Old Gods, and that’s why the end of the Asgardians and the beginnings of the New Gods — as portrayed by Jack Kirby — both sync up. In echoes of the way that the Olympians overthrew the Titans in Greek mythology, newer deities will almost always usurp the gods who came before them, only to find themselves transformed into the kind of unmoving figures they once fought and ultimately replaced by the next generation of god.
Like all deities, the New Gods are extraordinarily long-lived, and Darkseid’s advanced age here is a testatment to just who long he has reigned supreme in this pocket of the Multiverse.
As revealed at DC FanDome in August, The Suicide Squad’s cast includes Idris Elba as Bloodsport, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, John Cena as Peacemaker, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, Jai Courtney as Captain Boomerang, David Dastmalchian as Polka-Dot Man, Daniela Melchior as Ratcatcher II, Steve Agee as King Shark (mo-cap) and John Economos, Sean Gunn as Weasel (mo-cap), Flula Borg as Javelin, Nathan Fillion as TDK, Peter Capaldi as The Thinker, Pete Davidson as Blackguard, Alice Braga as Solsoria, Mayling Ng as Mongal and Michael Rooker as Savant.
Nearly all of those characters are showcased on the Empire cover. Strangely, Viola Davis‘ Amanda Waller is MIA, which could suggest Waller has a smaller role in The Suicide Squad than its predecessor. Or maybe Waller would just seem too normal amid a sea of flamboyantly dressed D-List supervillains.
