Is Darkseid a bad Dadseid or is Kalibak just a shit son?

both

Well they are both jobbers who have literally never won a fight so the apple doesn't fall very far from the fruit.
The problem lies with Kalibak as Darkseid can do no wrong.
>>86705468
A bit of both.
>>86705514
Even his real son is a jobber who rides a space Segway

Get out of here Darkseid.

Kirby intended to end the story with Darkseid and Orion fighting to death in the armaghetto. Instead, dc told him to keep the characters alive so they could be used later.

Both. Kalibak is an idiot, but Darkseid is just doing the dad thing by comparing his son to other men, even though Kalibak is the son of his favorite wife, and turned out pretty much exactly how someone growing up under Darkseid would turn out.
If he hated Tigra so much, he should have sent Kalibak instead. Then he might have turned out half-way competent with Highfather, and Orion could be the idiot jobber that Darkseid can regularly berate and torment.
Kalibak is the son Darkseid deserves.
