More modern takes on Highfather tend to lead into hard man making hard decisions while hard, like in Gods and Monsters in which he goes all Red Wedding on Darkseid and his elite.

Perhaps its DC's writers being cynical towards the whole "benevolent dictator for life" thing Highfather has going on.

So while better than Darkseid, that's grading on one hell of a curve.

Zoat has made comments that make me suspect that WTR's Highfather is influenced by those more cynical takes rather than the classic "Zeus but nice."
 
There is of course a problem with OL visiting Supertown. Orion Did promise to kill him next time he saw him. And he's one of the few that might make it stick.

May wish to send some one else.
