A clear distinction was made between the Anti-Life Equation and other methods of control like manipulation or hypnosis. While Darkseid could already exert some control over humanity through the preachings of his minion Glorious Godfrey, possessing the Equation would allow unlimited and instantaneous control.<sup id="cite_ref-21" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-21"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>21<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In <a href="/wiki/Jim_Starlin" title="Jim Starlin">Jim Starlin</a>'s mini-series <i><a href="/wiki/Cosmic_Odyssey_(comic_book)" class="mw-redirect" title="Cosmic Odyssey (comic book)">Cosmic Odyssey</a></i>, the Anti-Life Equation is revealed as a living shadow-based deity that corrupts and destroys everything it touches.

The Anti-Life Equation Entity would be <a href="/wiki/Retcon" class="mw-redirect" title="Retcon">retconned</a> as a creature who had been mislabeled as far as having anything to do with the Anti-Life Equation. </p><p>In issue #4 of <a href="/wiki/Neil_Gaiman" title="Neil Gaiman">Neil Gaiman</a>'s <i><a href="/wiki/The_Sandman_(Vertigo)" class="mw-redirect" title="The Sandman (Vertigo)">Sandman</a></i> series, the demon <a href="/wiki/Choronzon" title="Choronzon">Choronzon</a> mimics the form of 'Anti-Life' when challenging <a href="/wiki/Dream_(character)" title="Dream (character)">Dream</a> to 'the Oldest Game' - a battle of wits in which the two must define increasingly powerful entities in turn. Attempting to end the game, Choronzon states "I am Anti-Life, the beast of judgement. I am the dark at the end of everything. The end of universes, gods, worlds...of everything", at which point he takes on the appearance of a large, blank face against a white background.

According to <a href="/wiki/Barbara_Gordon" title="Barbara Gordon">Oracle</a>, who barely escaped the "full" effects of the Equation by shutting down the entire <a href="/wiki/Internet" title="Internet">Internet</a> just in time, the Anti-Life Equation further states that the only point in <i>anything</i> is to conform to Darkseid's will.<sup id="cite_ref-24" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/Shilo_Norman" class="mw-redirect" title="Shilo Norman">Shilo Norman</a> (the current <a href="/wiki/Mister_Miracle" title="Mister Miracle">Mister Miracle</a>) is able to break free from this with the help of Metron, gaining immunity from the Equation in the process.

In a text page published in <i>Final Crisis Secret Files</i>, Grant Morrison attempts to reconcile the Starlin version of the Anti-Life Equation with his own version, by suggesting that the Equation is indeed sentient (as Starlin suggests) and that even after "mastering" the Equation, Darkseid still does not understand the true horrific nature of what the Anti-Life Equation is and its relationship with the Source.<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In the New 52, the Anti-Life has much of the same powers it had before,<sup id="cite_ref-26" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-26"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Yuga Khan having used it to bring back the dead Old Gods to aid him in battle against his sons, Dreamer Beautiful using it for the first time to resurrect a deceased <a href="/wiki/Mark_Moonrider" class="mw-redirect" title="Mark Moonrider">Mark Moonrider</a>, and Darkseid himself using a fraction of it to draw unsuspecting victims to their end by broadcasting it over his <a href="/wiki/Parademon" class="mw-redirect" title="Parademon">parademon</a> hive factories. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Life_Equation">Life Equation</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Anti-Life_Equation&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Life Equation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Anti-Life's opposite member takes more prominence within the New 52. The white Light of Life is said to be the spark that originally gave birth to the positive matter universe of Earth-Zero just as the Anti-Life gave rise to the antimatter universe. Unlike the Anti-Life Equation which saps a person of their free will, The Life Equation is an all consuming power which has the capability to restructure reality by changing its formula around rewriting the very multiverse itself, representing the attributes of life itself pertaining to change and variance. The make up of the equation formula seems to vary from iteration to iteration. One instance relates it to the Emotional Spectrum and its corresponding seven lights: <a href="/wiki/Red_Lantern_Corps" title="Red Lantern Corps">rage</a>, <a href="/wiki/Larfleeze" title="Larfleeze">greed</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sinestro_Corps" title="Sinestro Corps">fear</a>, <a href="/wiki/Green_Lantern_Corps" title="Green Lantern Corps">will</a>, <a href="/wiki/Blue_Lantern_Corps" title="Blue Lantern Corps">hope</a>, <a href="/wiki/Indigo_Tribe" title="Indigo Tribe">compassion</a> and <a href="/wiki/Star_Sapphires" class="mw-redirect" title="Star Sapphires">love</a>. </p><p>Initially believing all of these refractions of the source light to lead in becoming the Life Equation, it is then realized that the formula itself is a separate power all its own connected directly to The Source of all things.
