powerful DC characters before we begin

latest videos for this list we’ll be
looking at the most awe-inspiring or
terrifyingly powerful characters
humanoid and otherwise from the pages of
DC Comics heroes villains eternal beings
all will be considered number 10
parallax President Franklin D Roosevelt
once said that the only thing we have to
fear is fear itself
well then we should definitely fear
parallax because this demonic parasitic
entity is the living embodiment of fear
thankfully the guardians of the universe
safely kept this powerful character
under lock and key in the Green Lantern
power battery on OA for billions of
years but all good things must come to
an end and parallax escaped and began
slowly manipulating Green Lantern Hal
Jordan eventually taking over completely
in making him commit atrocities an
immortal being capable of possession and
channeling the raw energy of fear
parallax is a truly terrifying force
number 9 dr. Manhattan
originally a character in Alan Moore’s
iconic graphic novel Watchmen dr.
Manhattan officially stepped into the
mainstream DC Universe with the events
of the 2016 DC rebirth campaign and that
should scare well pretty much everyone
though generally considered to be a hero
dr. Manhattan’s godlike abilities the
result of a radioactive particle test
gone wrong have also given him the sort
of big picture perspective on life and
ethics which other more conventional
heroes might not agree with if at any
point he decided that the world would be
better off under a single authoritarian
government or worse devoid of humans
there are a few heroes who could stop
this nearly omnipotent being number 8
named the 49th greatest villain of all
time by IGN in 2009 this
larger-than-life being hails from the
antimatter universe and is the evil
counterpart of multiverse protector the
monitor though the two are arguably
similar in terms of power level the anti
monitors thirst for conquest means that
he typically amasses greater power than
his altruistic equivalent and thus beats
outside of his life shell the
anti-monitor is basically just raw
conscious energy capable of traveling
through space time and reality the
anti-monitor has threatened the
existence of the very universe itself
has explored in the crisis on Infinite
Earths crossover event number 7 mister
mixes spital ik this interdimensional
imp and proverbial foreign and Superman
side might just be one of the many
rogues in the Man of Steel’s gallery but
he is a cut above the rest in terms of
powers and abilities of being hailing
from the planet surf in the fifth
dimension mister mixes fiddle ik is
imbued with nearly limitless abilities
when visiting the earthly third dementia
teleportation matter manipulation flight
mister mixes spinnel it can pretty much
do anything he can imagine reshaping
reality as he sees fit thankfully his
species is an inherently mischievous
people and as such rather than wiping
out all of existence he tends to focus
his attention on sillier endeavors
number 6
Crona the guardians of the universe
though often short-sighted and
utilitarian ultimately operate as a
force of order combating evil whenever
it grows too powerful and considering
how powerful they are that’s truly a
blessing unfortunately their species the
Malthusians
are not without their bad eggs enter
chrono Malthusians are all
scientifically minded but Crona pushed
the boundaries of his experiments
dramatically altering reality itself
his punishment banishment and the
conversion of his body into energy
remember when we said that the guardians
were short-sighted his powers have only
evolved and expanded since his
banishment which added to flight energy
projection mind-control genius-level
intellect and immortality makes him a
force to be reckoned with number 5
Superman prime 1 million the Man of
Steel is undoubtedly one of the more
powerful characters in the DC Universe
but if we’re talking about all of the
characters human alien celestial and
eternal he might not crack the top 10 at
his normal power level as Superman prime
1 million however he’s a serious
contender this unique version of kal-el
is the Superman of the distant future
who having outlived his loved ones burst
travelled the cosmos for roughly 679
centuries before retreating to live
inside of Earth’s Sun for another 15
thousand years as a result by the 850
3rd century he had become a living
extension of the Sun being of seemingly
infinite power number 4 the spectre who
are you
then juice a divine spirit The Spectre
serves as an agent of vengeance in the
DC universe this is a mantle that passes
from one human to the next regardless of
which host it’s occupying at any given
time and whatever personality they bring
to the role the spectre possesses powers
to rival the very highest in the DC
Universe only a beauty man is Peter
within the comic book continuity
it was the spectre who destroyed sodom
and gomorrah and brought down the final
plague of Egypt though Jim Corrigan is
the most famous host Green Lantern Hal
Jordan accepted the responsibility for a
time there is very little that Spectre
cannot do and even less he cannot see
number 3
Michael Demi Argos in terms of its
origin stories the DC Universe is
heavily steeped in judeo-christian
beliefs and in keeping with that the
very strongest characters are inspired
by figures from Christianity long before
the time appears in villains or even
cosmic beings the Archangel Michael one
of God’s very first creations was tasked
with putting a stop to a rebellion in
heaven led by his very own brother
Lucifer and to do so he was given the
Demiurge ik power the power of God with
this incomprehensible power Michael has
the very power of creation inside him of
course his power would eventually pass
on to his daughter the similarly
powerful Elaine Belloc number 2 Lucifer
Morningstar but if there’s one person
who can best the near infinite power of
Michael Domeier goes it’s his brother
Lucifer the very same angel who once
tried to overthrow the creator ruled in
Hell for eons and then retired to earth
to open a piano bar seriously we can’t
make this stuff up the run down of his
powers and abilities read very similarly
to Michael’s but while Michael has the
power of creation he cannot give it
shape only Lucifer can do that and
that’s exactly what he did when he
stabbed his brother releasing the Demi
Argos energy and wielding it to create
his very own reality before we unveil
our top pick here are a few honorable
number one the presence this mysterious
being is the single most powerful
character in all of the DC Universe but
you wouldn’t know it from the looks of
it originally introduced as a
disembodied voice the presence sometimes
appears as a portly aging gentleman in a
suit other times it presents itself as a
talking dog but don’t let the unassuming
forms fool you the presence is
effectively the equivalent of God in DC
Comics not the Greek gods or the new
gods but the singular creator
responsible for all existence created by
Jerry Siegel and Bernard Bailey in 1940
the presence rarely intervenes but
should he decide to there’s really no
one to impose his will do you agree with
