In New Gods (1972) #11, titled “Darkseid and Sons!” Darkseid performs an energy projection feat. In the issue, Desaad schemes against Orion when he fights Kalibak. To avenge Orion’s near death, Darkseid erases Desaad from reality with the Omega Effect.
How much energy projection does it take for Darkseid to erase Desaad from reality with the Omega Effect?
In New Gods (1972) #11, titled “Darkseid and Sons!” Darkseid performs an energy projection feat. To avenge Orion’s near death, Darkseid erases Desaad from reality with the Omega Effect. DC Comics.
IN THE ISSUE, DARKSEID ERASED DESAAD FROM REALITY WITH THE OMEGA EFFECT. AND THE OMEGA EFFECT CAN ERASE FROM REALITY, KILL AND RESURRECT LIFE.
RELEVANTLY, THE SUN CONVERTS 0.71 PERCENT OF ITS MASS TO ENERGY IN NUCLEAR FUSION.
TO THIS END, NEW GODS ARE BEING OF ENERGY THAT SUBLIME UPON DEATH WITH NO TRACE. WE THEORIZE THE SOURCE POWERS THEM IN A PROCESS SIMILAR TO NUCLEAR FUSION WITH NEAR 100 PERCENT MATTER TO ENERGY CONVERSION.
IMPORTANTLY, DARKSEID GENERATED 6.21*1018 JOULES OF ENTROPY IN ORDER TO ERASE DESAAD FROM REALITY. SIMILARLY, 1.44418604651 PERCENT OF THE ENERGY THE EARTH RECEIVES FROM SOL.
ENERGY PROJECTION FEAT:
MULTI-CONTINENT
Energy Projection: Multi-Continent 42%

Darkseid erased Desaad from reality with the Omega Effect. We will use New God Physiology in order to estimate the energy projection.
NEW GOD PHYSIOLOGY
In Final Crisis (2008) #2, Alpha Lantern Kraken gives a lesson on New God physiology. When Orion is murdered by a Radion bullet shot 50 years in the past, we learn about New Gods and death. According to Kraken, a New God’s body is mostly energy and sublimates without a trace upon death.
We will use this statement to calculate a New God’s durability.
NUMBER CRUNCHING
In fact, the New Gods are a race of cosmic beings who from their proximity to the Source have evolved similar to homo sapiens in appearance to develop superhuman powers and very advanced civilizations. Since they are beings of almost pure energy, we hypothesize that their power from the Source occurs through a process similar to nuclear fusion in our sun.
In an article, it is stated that four hydrogen atoms are converted into one atom atom of helium. In the nuclear fusion, 0.71% of the total mass is used to convert into energy. We hypothesize that in New Gods, this process is nearly 100%. Let’s calculate Desaad’s durability.
Desaad’s durability = E = mc2 = (69 kg)(3*108 m/s)2 = 6.21*1018 J.
ENERGY PROJECTION
Darkseid generated 6.21*1018 J of energy with the Omega Effect. In order to erase Desaad from reality, Darkseid had to generate a Planetary-Level of Energy Projection.

Darkseid, New Gods Vol 1 #11
Desaad’s durability = E = mc^2 = (69 kg)(3*10^8 m/s)^2 = 6.21*10^18 J.
Comparison To Earth’s Solar Energy = (100 * 6.21*10^18 J)/(430*10^18 J) = 1.44418604651.
