Orion ripped out Darkseid’s heart killing him. We will calculate the shear stress necessary to rip a 15 cm radius hole in Darkseid’s chest in order to estimate Orion’s super-strength.
DARKSEID’S DURABILITY
In
Superman/Batman (2004) #13,
Superman uses a Boom Tube to travel to the Promethean Galaxy. There, he imprisons Darkseid on the Source Wall. In the DC Universe, the Source Wall used to lie at the edge of the universe.

In
Superman/Batman (2004) #13, Superman imprisons Darkseid on the Source Wall.
We will use this feat to estimate Darkseid’s durability.
NUMBER CRUNCHING
Since it took the Source Wall to stop Darkseid, his Durability has been rated as Universal-Level. Let’s calculate the gravitational force that Darkseid can withstand. At a speed of 73000 meters per second, the universe has a kinetic energy of 5.329e+61 Joules. Properly speaking, the total energy is zero since it is canceled by its negative gravitational energy.
Gravitational force = F = W/G = |-(5.329e+61 Joules)/(6.67 x 10

22)| = 7.9895052e+71 N.
Using the Omni-Calculator, we calculate the shear stress necessary to rip a 15 cm radius hole in Darkseid’s chest.

Shear Stress = 8.477*10^71 Pa .
SUPER-STRENGTH
Orion generated 8.477*10^71 Pa of stress to rip a hole through Darkseid’s chest. Orion had to generate a Universal-Level of Super Strength.
