Do you think Mongul vs. Superman will be better than Superman vs. Darkseid?

[Batman 80]

I think this fight will be better because Mongul is good in hand to hand combat. Opinions?

Mongul isn't anywhere near as powerful as Darkseid. While it will be a good fight, if Mongul got Superman anywhere near as mad as Darkseid got him ( say, by pulling a Coast City on Metropolis ), Mongul will get his ass kicked from here to Andromeda.

While it will no doubt be good, I doubt it will be better.

The Superman vs. Darkseid had a huge build up (remember how long kids WB kept us waiting for the episode?), a very pissed Supes who had basically nothing left to lose and was out for revenge for what Darkseid did to his life, the people of Earth, and the murder of Dan Turpin.

I highly doubt that the big Superman vs. Mongul showdown that will come at the end of "War World" will have anything that can really compare. Judging the two isn't exactly fair.

:( Unfortunatly, I never got to see the followup to the episode where Darkseid killed Turpin as a parting shot before boom tubing out like a chicken &*%$

no. But i bet it will be a good fight.

I don't think the fight w/ Mongul will be as good as the fight w/ Darkseid. The fight w/ Darkseid was intense because we knew why Superman was fighting him (and it wasn't the "because he had to" reason), why Superman wanted to fight him, and the evil that Darkseid was capable of. Based on the writing for JL so far, I don't think the writers will go into Mongul's personality as much, or Superman's feelings towards Mongul, and the whole show will be centered around Superman's and Mongul's fight. Because of this, the fight will seem very superficial and pointless.
