Bio: Cloned from a portion of Superman's genetic material, Doomsday's
DNA was altered to make him Superman's superior. He was then
trained to hate him; images of Superman and his logo were
drilled into Doomsday's brain; he was tied down, shot and
repeatedly injured by images of Superman. The real mind behind
Doomsday was Amanda Waller and Professor Hamilton. When he
became uncontrollable, they tried to dispose of Doomsday by
shooting him into space, but he was too strong. His struggles
inside the rocket altered it's course and brought it back to
earth, where he fought the Justice Lord's Superman. This
alternate-universe version of Superman was harsher than the one
he had been trained to destroy; lobotomizing Doomsday, the
Lord's Superman allowed him to be taken away, where he was
eventually returned to Cadmus.
Dr. Milo freed Doomsday when he agreed to help him; Doomsday
"helped" Milo by killing him and then breaking his way out of
Cadmus. He immediately went en route of Superman on a far-a-way
island, attempting to re-route lava inside a volcano to reduce
the explosion. Breaking straight into the volcano, Doomsday
engaged Superman head-on. The fight went on forever, finally
ending when Superman was able to beat Doomsday down and toss him
into the top of the volcano, triggering the eruption.
Doomsday was later "rescued;" he was now caught inside hardened
lava and then transported back to the Watchtower. When he
wouldn't reason with the League and talk about his time at
Cadmus, Superman sucked Doomsday into the Phantom Zone, via his
projector.
