The Black Racer is quite literally the physical reflection of an face of dying . The Racer was bear after Darkseid conquered Apokolips and then enamor an view of Death . Darkseid then anchor Death to a forcible host , which turned the Black Racer into Darkseid ’s greatest weapon against other New Gods .
