Warning: SPOILERS for Zack Snyder’s Justice League are ahead!

While his name was only mentioned once in Justice League’s theatrical cut, Darkseid was featured prominently in Zack Snyder’s Justice League, with Ray Porter bringing the character to life. Arguably the Apokoliptan dictator’s biggest moment to shine in the four-hour tale happened in the history lesson sequence, when he came to conquer Earth and discovered the Anti-Life Equation. But in the present day Snyder Cut narrative, Steppenwolf informing Darkseid and DeSaad that the Anti-Life Equation resided on Earth was treated like brand-new information.
