still, is Darkseid usually called a devil? DC has devils, beings like Neron and Satanus.
And while the stories followed the ones who killed it I think "No one can stand to this beast, it will surely kill us all," was far more common than "The creature has killed our best men, all out efforts against it have failed." though I'm sure the second one happened to.
Still I find I have more and more problems with this the more I think about it. For one thing it shows the plot armor of the main character.
But as for this story it could easily be shown as a lie told by Darkseid later. This makes him far more big you know. His parents are now nothing, as opposed to a being who could threaten him. It gives him actual claim to Mr. Miracle since he's now his uncle. It ties his arch enemy to him, it makes the Old Gods look like fools, it gives the Lowlies on Apokalips hope he can crush

Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
