[[caption-width-right:350:The ultimate weapon against tyranny: The voice of the people.]]
* The finale, where the Franchise/GreenLantern Corps bring together the last ounces of energy from their rings to shove a glowing, Lantern-construct stake through the vampiric Mandrakk's heart while an entire army of alternate-universe Supermen cook Ultraman alive with their heat-vision.
* To say nothing of the return of ''Comicbook/CaptainCarrotAndHisAmazingZooCrew''. After their [[PutOnABusToHell horrible]] [[AndIMustScream fate]] at the end of ''Final Ark'', there is something wonderfully seeing Monitor Nix Uotan learning of their plight and rescuing them seeming out of the blue to have them join with the other heroes to save a multiverse they have every right to be a part of.
* At the end of Final Crisis #5, the [[AssimilationPlot will of Darkseid runs through all of humanity]] as the God Of Evil revokes his VillainDecay with one soul-crushing speech:
-->'''[[AGodAmI I. AM. THE. NEW. GOD]].\\
ALL IS ONE IN DARKSEID. THIS ''MIGHTY BODY'' IS MY ''CHURCH.''\\
WHEN I ''COMMAND'' YOUR SURRENDER, I SPEAK WITH ''THREE BILLION'' VOICES...\\
WHEN ''I'' MAKE A ''FIST'' TO CRUSH YOUR RESISTANCE. ''IT IS WITH THREE BILLION HANDS!''\\
WHEN I STARE INTO YOUR EYES AND ''SHATTER'' YOUR DREAMS. AND ''BREAK YOUR HEART. IT IS WITH SIX BILLION EYES!''\\
''NOTHING LIKE DARKSEID HAS EVER COME AMONG YOU: NOTHING WILL AGAIN.''\\
''I WILL TAKE YOU TO A HELL WITHOUT EXIT OR END.''\\
''AND THERE I WILL MURDER YOUR SOULS!''\\
''AND MAKE YOU CRAWL AND BEG! ''\\
''AND DIE!''\\
[[LargeHam DIE! DIE FOR DARKSEID!]]''''
** And he still manages to do this after being fatally poisoned, along with [[TakingYouWithMe slowly taking the multiverse to his grave.]] ''[[EldritchAbomination Through sheer force of existing.]]'' Now ''that'' is the Darkseid that Creator/JackKirby envisioned.
** Prior to this, the end of issue 4 as Turpin is totally subsumed by Darkseid; the page is dominated by Darkseid giving the reader an utterly baleful stare and a thumbs down, the dialogue - after an entire issue of Dan resisting - simply reads ''"Give in."''
* Franchise/{{Batman}}. He barely managed to survive [[ComicBook/BatmanGrantMorrison the Black Glove's assault on him]] before being called in to help with the investigation of Orion's murder. His {{Crazy Prepared}}ness lead him to personally take the time bullet from JLA labs so ''he'' could investigate it better himself. He's then captured by the Evil Gods and {{Mind Rape}}d for weeks, maybe months as his personality, mind, and memories are violated to provide motivation for a clone army grown to serve Darkseid. Batman managed to do the impossible and used his memories to destroy the clone army from within, convince the bioweapon that was mind raping him to join his side and escape. [[SerialEscalation He then manages to get face to face with Darkseid]], who at this time is causing Multiversal collapse from his mere existance, delivers a ShutUpHannibal and [[BatmanGrabsAGun fatally poisons Darkseid with the bullet Darkseid himself used to kill his son]]. '''[[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Batman hunted down the omnicidal god of all evil and shot him in the chest]]'''.
--> '''Batman:''' Gotcha.
* Wally West and Barry Allen not only outrunning Death, but leading Death to Darkseid, ''and then outrunning Darkseid's Omega Beams''.
* The normally reserved Tawky Tawny (the Marvel Family's talking tiger friend) straight-out disemboweling Kalibak in one swipe. [[LetsGetDangerous Tawny Bites!]]
** And then, having taken down Kalibak, with no energy left, Tawny patiently straightens his bow tie as [[FaceDeathWithDignity he waits for the remaining warriors to finish him.]] They bow to him instead, and when the irate Kalibak protests, they remind him [[IFightForTheStrongestSide they follow]] ''[[IFightForTheStrongestSide the strongest]]'' -- someone he clearly ''isn't''.
* [[RealityBreakingParadox "17".]]
** Actually, the whole series could be considered Metron's [=CMoA=] considering he sowed the seeds for Darkseid's defeat.
* Franchise/{{Superman}}, [[BigDamnHeroes plowing through Darkseid's minions and defenses like they aren't even there]], then breaking into Command-D in a matter of seconds. A very awesome moment in the otherwise DarkestHour of issue 6.
* The return of ComicBook/{{Superboy}} & [[ComicBook/{{Impulse}} Kid Flash]] in ''ComicBook/LegionOfThreeWorlds''; with Bart ''[[OhCrap scaring the crap out of Superboy-Prime]]'' [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes simply by showing his face]], and Conner beating the snot out of Prime - not for killing him, but because of the grief Wonder Girl suffered as he died in her arms.
--> '''Superboy & Kid Flash:''' [[BattleCry TITANS TOGETHER]]!
* Let's face it, Superman obliterating Darkseid from existence by ''singing'' is hands down one of the most awesome things Superman has ever done.
-->'''Superman:''' Darkseid... always hated music...
** Especially if you subscribe to Linkara's suggestion that the song in question was... [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6Y2qGK--NI "Sacred Worlds"]] by Music/BlindGuardian.

[[folder: War! It's now or never, we shall stand together. One by one, this world is Sacred! ]]

* ''Final Crisis: Requiem'' is the ComicBook/MartianManhunter's DyingMomentOfAwesome (putting side that DeathIsCheap applies to him too), showing he didn't go down when Libra stabbed him, but put up a hell of a fight against the Secret Society before finally succumbing to his wounds and making sure his friends told his life story.
