Omega Beams are powerful bio-electric energy beams that can track and disintegrate a selected target. Both Darkseid and his son Grayven possess the ability to generate Omega Beams, though Grayven's Omega powers are inferior to those of his father. Darkseid once boasted that no living being had ever withstood the full force of the Omega Effect, but Doomsday and Superman have both withstood the Effect. The Cyborg Superman has demonstrated a degree of resiliency to them as well. While capable of passing through almost any substance, the Beams are ineffective against the bracelets of Wonder Woman, which were forged from the Olympian Aegis.
The effects of Darksieds Omega Sanction in the new DC continuity have yet to change, it still maintains its more lethal processes hideous atomic dissociation, trajectory arcing and phase shifting on a whim. Uxas even found a way to impart an offshot variation of his terrible power unto a clone he had created to aid him in his conquest and assimilation of Earth 2. His wayward daughter born to the evil amazon Myrina Black inherited her fathers power but the extent of her ability to use it, while remaining to be seen, are nonetheless impressive seemingly accomplishing what even Darksied could not when she shattered Wonder Woman's Bracelets of Submission in one shot.
